“Indicative of his flamboyant persona, Reed portrayed Myron, who becomes Myra (Raquel Welch) after undergoing a sex-change operation in a dream sequence, in Myra Breckinridge (1970), adapted from Gore Vidal’s salacious novel. His involvement, however, did not stop him from giving the film a negative review.”

That’s pretty funny. I also remember Ebert’s “Eskimo Pie” anecdote about him.

“Big flamboyant loudmouth snot” - No wonder he fit in with the New Journalism movement!
