Superman - Special EditionIcon_movClass_PG

1978, 151 minutes, Rated PG

A box-office smash, an Academy Award winner and a beloved fan favourite for more than a generation, Superman: The Movie now soars even higher in a state-of-the-art digital transfer from the restored elements and with dynamically remixed digital audio. There's more: the epic adventure now includes eight minutes integrated into the film by director Richard Donner. Among the highlights: added footage of the Krypton Council, a glimpse of veterans from previous Superman screen incarnations, a meeting with Jor-El that underscores the Man of Steel's purpose on Earth and an extended sequence inside Lex Luthor's gauntlet of doom. Christopher Reeve, unknown when cast, is flawless as the title hero and fumbling alter-ego Clark Ket. And Marlon Brando (Jor-El), Gene Hackman (Luthor) and Margot Kidder (Lois Lane) offers indelible performances that fuel the film's aura of legend. Looks like a swell night for flying. Why not come along?
