Hi, I'm Christy Lemire

Table For One Movie Reviews

If you've ever wanted to review a movie with us at Breakfast All Day, here's your chance: We offer a service called Table for One. You pick the movie, we meet up online to review it with you, then you get the video to keep. Maybe it's your favorite film ever, or an undiscovered gem you'd like to share. Perhaps it's a movie you think we got totally wrong and you're itching to debate it. Whatever it is, Alonso and I would love to meet and discuss it with you. These Table for One reviews are so fun and a great way to get to know our viewers. Get started by filling out the form in the link below.

Here's a testamonial from Cody Downs:

RogerEbert.com

Working with Roger Ebert and being a part of his continuing legacy has been the great honor of my career. Since 2013, I've been proud to serve as one of the main film critics at RogerEbert.com.

You can find all of my reviews and other writing for the site here.

About

Welcome to ChristyLemire.com! If you're new to my work as a film critic or would like to get reacquainted, here's a little bit about who I am and what inspires me.
Movies have been a huge part of my life since my earliest days. Looking back, it's so clear: They've always been there for me. From the annual holiday ritual of watching "The Wizard of Oz" and "The Sound of Music" when I was a little girl to repeated viewings of "Sixteen Candles" and "The Breakfast Club" in high school to matinees of whatever was playing at the local arthouse theater while I was at Southern Methodist University, films have provided a constant source of fascination and escape.
I suppose this was my destiny, growing up in suburban Los Angeles as the only child of a mom who loved Fellini and a dad who gravitated toward Humphrey Bogart and classic musicals. And now I have the joy of passing on this love of movies to my teenage son, Nicolas, who's my frequent plus-one and constant sounding board. Someday, he'll look back and appreciate the fact that my husband and I took him to a Sunday morning 70mm showing of "2001: A Space Odyssey" when he was in the second grade.
But for the past quarter-century, movies have been not just my passion but also my profession. For 15 years, I was the film critic for The Associated Press. These days, I have six jobs and no job, as I like to joke. Among the places you can find me:
  • Talking about movies at the Breakfast All Day YouTube channel and podcast with my dear friend and co-host, Alonso Duralde.
  • Writing about movies as one of the main critics at RogerEbert.com. (I also had the honor of co-hosting "Ebert Presents At the Movies," a revamped version of "Siskel and Ebert" with Roger serving as executive producer, on public television for one glorious year in 2011.)
  • Talking some more about movies on both NPR stations in Los Angeles: FilmWeek on LAist 89.3 and Press Play on KCRW 89.9.
It's been an incredible privilege to cover what I love for a living. But when I share my thoughts on a movie, I feel like it's just the beginning of the conversation: I want to hear from you, so feel free to comment, and let's talk about what you love too!
