I saw this movie on a first date with a guy, when it came out in 1978. In march we will celebrate our 45th wedding anniversary.

Christopher Reeve is perhaps the most perfect casting ever for a comic book character. I'm convinced that the main reason these 70s Superman movies continue to be remembered as benchmarks for Superman adaptations are due to Reeve's performance, and John Williams's timeless score.

This is why for a whole generation of us, Christopher Reeve is Superman. Period.

To this day any actor who plays Superman is still compared to Christopher Reeve; that's how high he set the benchmark. And he is still the only actor (so far) to legitimately pull off a different persona between Superman and Clark Kent. I am still psyching myself up to watch the Christopher Reeve documentary as I know it is going to absolutely wreck me emotionally.

Finally! A reaction where someone actually understands the whole Clark/Superman dichotomy and understands that the glasses are only part of the disguise. You don't know just how refreshing it is to see people get it right off the rip.

The main problem with all the other actors is they never had this charisma. Reeves says "I am a friend" in such a wholesome earnest way that you immediately believe him. That kind of charisma doesn't come as ofter every generation.

Reeve's seamless switch from Clark to Superman was so great, it was like two completely different characters.

How Reeve handled and fought his years of being physically paralyzed after breaking his neck in the horse riding accident...He was a real SUPER......MAN. RIP Sir. God Speed to you.
