Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story

What a thoroughly fascinating journey this documentary portrayed of the late Christopher Reeve. Growing up and watching re-runs in the 90's of the Superman films I was really only aware of him for that and of course, I had heard about his terrible accident but I never knew anything else about him, I wasn't even sure how or when he died.

It was also interesting to learn that Robin Williams was a very close friend, if not, his closest. He was always cracking jokes and that was just who Robin was, but he kept Reeve in good spirits when it was needed. That's what you call a good friend.

The background of his family and 3 kids was touching and if you're a crier, get ready for the tissues towards the last 15 mins cause you're gonna need them. His legacy he left behind and work surrounding the paralysis and disability foundations is nothing short of phenomenal. Life can be so rewarding yet so cruel at the same time.

A very good documentary about a man, but not just any man, a Superman. RIP.
