Fifteen years ago, on February 20, 1999, the world of film criticism was forever altered by the passing of Gene Siskel, film critic for the Chicago Tribune and half of the legendary duo of Siskel & Ebert. Shortly
after his passing, Roger Ebert appeared on “Larry King Live” to discuss the loss of a dear friend and colleague. As Roger did 15 years ago today, we take a moment to remember a man whose influence still resonates with film critics everywhere.
