Cusack, Tucker to attend Chicago service for Ebert

FILE - In this Jan. 12, 2011 file photo, Pulitzer Prize-winning movie critic Roger Ebert works in his office at the WTTW-TV studios in Chicago. Ebert died on Thursday, April 4, 2013. He was 70. Ebert started out as an old-school newspaper man, the kind that has all but vanished: a fierce competitor who spent the day trying to scoop the competition and the night bellied up to the bar swapping stories. Then newspapers fell on hard times, either laying off huge chunks of their staffs or disappearing altogether. But Ebert didn't merely survive. He flourished, largely by embracing television and later the Internet and social networks. (AP Photo/Charles Rex Arbogast, File) CHICAGO (AP) — Hollywood planned to come to Chicago on Thursday evening as actors, directors, film critics and studio presidents were to honor late movie reviewer Roger Ebert in his hometown.
