THE REAL SUPERMAN
I was three-and-a-half years old, sitting on my dad’s knee, picking the nuts off my Cornetto — and completely enthralled. The tagline said, “You’ll believe a man can fly,” and, oh my, did I believe it! Even now, Richard Donner’s Superman is still my favourite movie. This is the film that made me fall in love with movies, and I have Richard Donner to thank for that.
The word “legend” gets bandied about a lot, but he truly was one. May he rest in peace while his legacy of work lives on for many years.
