...brings with it a demand

for greater understanding.

Casey and Roxanne:

Light and shadow.

Theirs was not an evil relationship.

But evil did come because of it.

Otto:

An end to Martin Bormann?

Harris:
He forgot that yesterday

is only for remembering.

Those who choose to live there

lose sight of tomorrow.

Pet's mistake:
A fleeting thing,

born of emotion...

...yet it almost ruined the lives

of two others.

Randy's body:
A cage for an animal.

It lifted him to the top of his field...

...but in the end,

the beast almost killed him.

And Kelly?

Her selfish involvement...

...so ready to turn her back on

friendship. The road back is painful.

But by her pain,

she will never again forget.

You must each decide

what your life will be.

You must always know that a hand

extended to your fellow man...

...is a gesture of love.

Love that asks nothing, expects nothing.

It is simply there.

And if love is in you,

then gentle will be all your steps...

...as you walk beyond this valley.

They always said there'd be

a first time for everything.

And this is certainly

our first triple-ceremony.

Just a second, folks.

It's Porter Hall.

And now, we shall begin.

Roger Ebert

Roger Joseph Ebert (; June 18, 1942 – April 4, 2013) was an American film critic, historian, journalist, screenwriter, and author. He was a film critic for the Chicago Sun-Times from 1967 until his death in 2013. In 1975, Ebert became the first film critic to win the Pulitzer Prize for Criticism. Ebert and Chicago Tribune critic Gene Siskel helped popularize nationally televised film reviewing when they co-hosted the PBS show Sneak Previews, followed by several variously named At the Movies programs. The two verbally sparred and traded humorous barbs while discussing films. They created and trademarked the phrase "Two Thumbs Up," used when both hosts gave the same film a positive review. After Siskel died in 1999, Ebert continued hosting the show with various co-hosts and then, starting in 2000, with Richard Roeper. Neil Steinberg of the Chicago Sun-Times said Ebert "was without question the nation's most prominent and influential film critic", Tom Van Riper of Forbes described him as "the most powerful pundit in America", and Kenneth Turan of the Los Angeles Times called him "the best-known film critic in America".Ebert lived with cancer of the thyroid and salivary glands from 2002. In 2006, this required treatments necessitating the removal of his lower jaw, which cost him the ability to speak or eat normally and left him severely disfigured. His ability to write remained unimpaired, and he continued to publish frequently both online and in print until his death on April 4, 2013. more…
