When ASR reporter Tristan Fitzpatrick was in middle school, he was the film critic for the school newspaper. It was his first job in journalism and his early writings were influenced by popular film critic Roger Ebert. Tristan pays tribute to his idol, Roger Ebert, who helped us understand the magic of the movies and what they mean to us. Ebert passed away three years ago on April 4, 2013, but his reviews and his love of movies still provide valuable insight for readers of all backgrounds.
