The best movie reviewer however...


...the first couple of minutes were to difficult for me to watch.

That isn't meant to be an insult ,but i reminds me to much of a family member i lost due to cancer.
That person also had it in the face ,his chin is to unbearable for me to see...

I know i sound like an ^&#%@$#@ ,that is however not my intention ,but i just can't see him like that ,i wasn't able to see him completely healthy unfortunately he sadly wasn't that lucky...



But until the very last day he wrote the best reviews one can imagine be it bad or good for the movie concerned...

He sort of reminds me in that regard of Christopher Hitchens who also suffered from cancer and also wrote until his dying day ,his essays however were of a political and of a religious nature ... it's remarkable to be that clever in your dying days is remarkable...

Yes, those first minutes were very hard to watch but it was of the real Roger at the end of his life. I don't think he'd mind a bit about how we saw him, he just wanted the truth to be told and if helps anybody more the better.

Roger was an insanely decent man and he's really been a great influence on my life. He was the real deal.

There's no more Hollywood anymore, there's just a bunch of banks
