Coming soon to Roger Ebert's 'Great Movies' List

I had emailed Ebert on Ace in the Hole the other day via the Answer Man column asking him where Wilder's gem stacked up against other great noirs. Ebert responded by saying it's coming soon to the Great Movies.

You can believe me or not believe me that he answered me but keep an eye out for his ACE IN THE HOLE essay very soon.

It's up, and it's a really good essay: http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=%2F20070812%2FREVIEWS08%2F70810003%2F1023

Did he train you? Did he rehearse you? Did he tell you *exactly* what to do, what to say?!
