the movies
The Great Movies is the name of several publications, both online and in print, from Roger Ebert, an American film critic and columnist for The Chicago Sun-Times. The object was, as Ebert put it, to "make a tour of the landmarks of the first century of cinema", by writing essays on films Ebert considered particularly well-made, important or influential.
The Great Movies was published as four books:
The Great Movies, published in November 2003 (544 pages, Three Rivers Press, ISBN 978-0767910385)
The Great Movies II published in February 2006 (517 pages, Three Rivers Press, ISBN 978-0767919869)
The Great Movies III, published in October 2011 (440 pages, University of Chicago Press, ISBN 978-0226182094)
The Great Movies IV, published in September 2016 (288 pages, University of Chicago Press, ISBN 978-0226403984)
