SUPERMAN Clip - "Flying with Lois" (1978) Christopher Reeve

[@BrandonKohout]

No matter what happens and no matter what people say or do, Christopher Reeve and Margot Kidder will always be the greatest Superman & Lois Lane duo of all time.

I bet the original Lois Lane (Noel Neill) wished she got to do flying sequences with George Reeves (as Superman) back in thier day😄..fun fact: Noel Neill did a cameo in Superman...she played the little girl's ( young Lois) mom on the train when young Clark was racing the train.

​@@paulsmith9192it's a great detail of the script, Superman is in a playful mode, he holds Lois by his hand tip, mesmerized by her, and maybe, a bit nervous too, then, she slips off, making him go to catch her, leading to a closer approach 😉

[@davemillet4160]

John Williams' soundtrack really does make you feel like you're flying, doesn't it? He couldn't have written a more perfect score.

[@synthiamiller5990]

@Davemillet4160 Yesss!! It's a beautiful score!!! I urge you to listen to it as they play this song and the Superman theme as the credits are rolling. 1st the Superman theme plays ( sounding majestic of course) . Then the song that Lois and Superman are flying to in this scene is played. (Incidentally, the name of thus song is called " Can You Read My Mind". It was originally performed by Maureen McGovern. ) This song plays after the Superman theme in the closing credits as the credits are rolling. It sounds beautiful and it ends on such a peaceful note. To add to it at the very end as this song is coming to a close , after the last credit is shown, there was the promise that Superman 2 was coming soon!

[@meNewYorkGiants1Fan]

John Willams with this movie is like a magician really pulling rabbits out of his hat! All the music made me really feel a man can indeed fly! So can I! Only when I dream at night🙂

[@robertrka1]

Out of all the Superman played by different actors and Henry Cavil was damn good, Christopher Reeves was the only actor that made me believe he was Superman!

[@esthergift8373]

Its unfortunate how they've treated and made DC Movies a joke now!

[@HarrisMiller-qw6xh]

I remember watching this, film and there always a part of the film that stood out for me and it stuck with me right up to this day, it was just before the credits roll, he was flying above earth, he looked straight at the camera winked , smiled before moving off, I always thought he doing it to no one else but me, never forgot it

[@MapleSyrupPoet]

Yuppp 😎

[@PatrickRockwell24]

Henry Cavil might have looked the part but.....he lacked the foundation of Superman laid by Christopher Reeve. To me, Henry is just another actor who tried and failed to reignite the Superman brand.

[@robertrka1]

@PatrickRockwell24 The Man of Steel storyline was good, though.

[@JuneLynn]

Just a perfectly romantic flying scene, I especially love John Williams music....and Christopher Reeve will always be the BEST Superman....no one else will ever replace him even though they tried and failed (only my opinion)...Rest In Peace Christopher 💜and Margot : )

[@tishtashtishtash]

What sets this scene soaring (past the excellent performances and Christopher Reeve’s uncanny talent for pantomiming how a man would actually fly) is John Williams’ reiterations of the Love Theme.

[@bungalowlogic7676]

Wow, never quite realized... It's ALL in Margot Kidder's eyes. The look of sheer amazement, trembling fear, wonder, to elation and adoration. That is the "special effect" that makes this more than the latest VFX which reads as dull today. New appreciation for an almost 50 year old clip of cinema gold

Margot Kidder and Christopher Reeve will be the greatest relationship in a superhero movie and that is admirable! I mean, the movie took out 7 whole minutes of possible action, angst, or drama and inserted a beautiful and playful flying scene to not only grow Clark and Lois’ relationship, but to add to the level of sweetness and charm that few movies have nowadays. Ugh, makes me want to cry!❤️💙

Is there a scene in the whole of the MCU and DCEU combined even half as magical as this? Great superhero movies are built on one consistent thread; Romance. Steve and agent Carter, Tony and Pepper, Peter and MJ, Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor. Without that they are just people beating each other up.

Damn! I always tear up, but I also smile whenever I see this scene. This movie was magic to me when I first saw it back in 1978. I was 10 and yet I still understood the romantic aspect of this film. Yes, the action is great but the love story is so charming. I am a closeted romantic to this day because of this movie. Thank you Chris and Margot.

Feel exactly the same way. This movie impacted me deeply back in '78 and resonates to this day. I fell in love with Chris and Margot way back then.

Es interesante ver que, quizás, lo que hace volar a superman es como una especie de campo gravitacional que afecta por contacto y por eso puede ser que cuando Lois cae del helicóptero, "eso" evita aceleraciones dañinas al cogerla en el mismo instante que la toca.

[@79designuk]

How did they film this - the end scene. He steps back and flies off… and goes to her room and there is Clark… no cut. The only thing I can see is the shot of Superman smiling to say goodnight, is not super clear… so green screen there? I don’t see a ‘cut’ in that hedge she walks past, which is a good place to splice the edit. I Saw it last night and suddenly “hey wow… how did they do that in 1978?”. To this day, I still wonder how when they fly side by side, one hand, why she didn’t do go backward all over the place. But it was that “romantic” fly together feel… real world parked. Wonderful scene with wonderful music. Best Superman ever. No question. Never lied the new darker ones.

[@rphlcrvz]

It's not a green screen. Watched (or read somewhere, I can't remember) that they projected a recording of a costumed Chris from behind a screen. All to make a seamless cut and to give the illusion that he changed clothes super fast. EDIT: I think it was from a KZbin channel called CorridorCrew. They usually critique visual effects seen in movies, past and present & would often invite people who work in the industry to critique with them.

[@PrestigeLearning]

rphlcrvz has it right -- Kidder's looking at a large projection. Look at the plants in the lower left corner. Annoying thing: I read the official "making of" paperback way back when, which claimed that Reeve flew off, got out of the rig and into Clark Kent's clothes, all in the time it took Kidder to walk from the balcony to the door. In other words, the official book claimed they did it for real. But it's obviously a rear-projection

[@p9a9r21]

Before the release of Superman The Movie in 1978 the only film with Superman was in 1957. And from 1978 until 1987 Christopher Reeves was Superman. While other actors have portrayed The Man of Steel, the latest being Henry Cavhil, no one has been able to match Mr. Reeves portrayal of Superman. This scene in particular along with the rescue scene are indelibly etched in the minds of millions This love theme was incorporated into the main score of the film Superman's March to musically and thematically signify the love relationship between Superman and Lois is central to the Superman saga. RIP Christopher Reeves and Margot Kidder.

“And over the last few years we have heard a lot about something called ‘family values’. And like many of you, I have struggled to figure out what that means. And since my accident, I've found a definition that seems to make sense. I think it means that we're all family. And that we all have value.” Christopher Reeve, speaking at the Democratic National Convention in 1996. What a Super Man.

[@woodrowboudreaux9951]

Superman deserved a better Lois Lane.

[@synthiamiller5990]

Yes and no. If you've ever gotten to watch the screen tests, they had several ladies that they screen tested with Christopher for the role of Lois. When you watch the screen tests, you definitely get to understand why they hired Margot for the role. Out of all of them, she had the best on screen chemistry with him. For example, Stockard Channing did not make a good choice because even though she was attractive, she was too busy playing Lois Lane with Rizzo's ( Rizzo from the movie Grease) attitude. Anne Archer was pretty, but had way too much nervous energy.
