This week, our man of the movies Clint Drieberg chats to the director and featuring family members of the brand new documentary 'Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story', all about the extraordinary life of Christopher Reeve, or as many know him - the original Superman.
Reeve was injured in a near-fatal horse-riding accident in 1995 that left him paralyzed from the neck down. Super/Man, the moving new documentary from directors Ian Bonhôte and Peter Ettedgui, contains the first extended interviews ever filmed with Reeve’s three children about their father, and Radio Nova's own Clint Drieberg got to sit down with the Reeves and discuss what the film means to them.
Prior to the life-altering accident, Reeve had a varied and successful career spanning 30+ years, becoming most famous for his role as Superman in the 1978-1987 TV series of the same name. He continued his career both in front of and behind the camera up until his death in 2004.
'Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story' is out now.
