A Night of Cinema with Roger Ebert
Check out photos from A Night of Cinema with Roger Ebert, where auction winners from Facets' 2003 Screen Gems benefit enjoyed an evening of food, film and conversation with Roger. The film, My Family (Mi Familia), was screened followed by a discussion with Roger and the film's writer/director Gregory Nava and writer/producer Anna Thomas.
