Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story

I don't have much to say on this. There's not much to say. I feel like this a documentary where discussing the format feels superfluous, not just given that the central figure in it and his spouse are both long passed, but because this isn't trying to be revolutionary or reveal deep, dark secrets. This is about a man who was revered by a generation for playing a superhero and who never felt like he embodied the role. But he did, not by daring deeds of heroism, but by not shrinking in the face of unthinkable obstacles, and trying to be a little better than he was the day before. IF you grew up with him as I did, he will always be the measuring stick for Superman ... but more than that, he was a dad, a brother, a husband, a father, and a human being, all of which can make a man more than just a man. Super/Man won't set the world on fire, but it isn't meant to; it's for fans. And for that, it hits the nail on the head in reminding us of what made Christopher Reeve a real Superman.
