SUPER/MAN: THE CHRISTOPHER REEVE STORY
Archived Event
Dir: Ian Bonhote, Peter Ettedgui | USA, UK | 2024 | 104 mins
Documentary
Tragedy and inspiration combine in the remarkable story of Christopher Reeve, as told in this supremely moving documentary.
After his rise from unknown stage actor to iconic film star – with his definitive portrayal of the ‘Man of Steel’ setting the benchmark for the superhero cinematic universes to follow – Reeve was paralysed from the neck down in a near-fatal horse-riding accident in 1995. He nearly gave up, but with the support of family and friends, instead became a passionate activist in support of a cure for spinal cord injuries and a tireless advocate for disability rights.
From the directors of McQueen, Super/Man makes ingenious use of intimate home movie footage and features the first extended interviews filmed with Reeve’s children – plus input from friends including Susan Sarandon, Whoopi Goldberg and Glenn Close – to tell a tremendously powerful, hopeful and inspiring story of real heroism.
