   THere's the episode where Marge thinks the fine city of Springfield,   
   Wherever, needs a film festival.  She calls Jay Sherman to be a judge.   
   There was the memorable scene at the dining room table where he shows   
   off his awards without showing them off.   
      
   Besides, Roger Ebert apparently had his own film festival, and I suspect   
   it was kind of SImpson-esque.
