Ebertfest: Roger Ebert's Film Festival - Name Change

Name Change

In April 2007 it was announced that beginning in 2008 with the tenth festival "overlooked" would be dropped from the name and subsequent events would simply be known as "Ebertfest - Roger Ebert's Film Festival." This does not necessarily indicate any change in the philosophy or theme but will simply eliminate the need to explain when current or even unreleased films are included which has sometimes been the case. They have sometimes been jokingly referred to as "pre-overlooked."

Famous quotes containing the word change:

    Revolutions demand enormous sacrifices and, at the same time, create a new need to change the world again.
    Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)

    Most men would feel shame if caught preparing with their own hands precisely such a dinner, whether of animal or vegetable food, as is every day prepared for them by others. Yet till this is otherwise we are not civilized, and, if gentlemen and ladies, are not true men and women. This certainly suggests what change is to be made.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
