Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story

In terms of an emotional journey, this doc has a lot going for it. The Superman stuff and the paralysis stuff has all the ingredients for a boo-hoo extravaganza. But’s it’s not like this is so uniquely or expertly made. For comparison, I found Still, the Michael J Fox doc, to be more emotional and the Jim Henson doc, Jim Henson Idea Man, to be more informative. It suffices to say that it’s a worthwhile doc to show how much impact Reeve had on the cultural views of the wheelchair bound and the changes that happened because of him.
