❤ Love this unique lady...SOOOO part of my childhood...she was one of the key adorations along side Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamil, Harrison Ford, Helen Slater.....❤ She was real....no pretence...love her...miss her 😢

[@Russellye5man1]

We could all do with a friend like her. A treasure.

[@insertgoodname4809]

She's just adorable. I love Margot Kidder.

[@slc2466]

Interesting they talk about Margot originally getting the part. Watching the "Superman" screen tests, some others seem competent, then Margot steps up and hits it out of the park.

[@soupful]

How very true.

[@thedeltadeltadeltasband2454]

She had aged visibly by 1987, so?? She still looks GREAT but the superficial standards make people criticize her for daring to look older a decade later. It's just unfair, she's still so vibrant and attractive!

[@komirules]

Wasn’t even attractive in superman 1.

[@restlessbohemian26]

@@komirules Yes she was.

I love Margot's non-political honesty during her interviews. I saw her on David Letterman (at the time promoting Superman IV) and mentioned she still thought Superman: The Movie was the best from the series (written within the context of promoting her current film from the series rather than hindsight of how 'IV' was a dud!)

[@soupful]

Yeah true enough, seen this also.

[@jedijones]

It's made her very rich...LOL..I like the honesty.

[@markus5862]

Pretty cool, I’ve never seen this before. Kidder seems a little “drowsy” here

[@purefoldnz3070]

lol drowsy aka high as fuck

[@markus5862]

@@purefoldnz3070 hahahahaha exactly. Off her rocker

[@TrojanJustin]

This was clearly shot at a press junket, she probably had 10 of these kinds of interviews prior to this.

[@Jarvamon]

If you ever see her doing publicity for this movie she may seem a little off as she's basically publicising a film she thinks is terrible. Check out the 2006 documentary "The Curse of Superman" to see what she REALLY thought about Superman IV.

Shs better looking here than in the super man 4

[@brendancaldwell7755]

Superman 4 was a step to far. The costume looked very dated by 1987 and Reeve and Kidder and the rest of the original cast looked too old. Obviously the cheap budget made the film a disaster.

[@dannyr2976]

Chris Reeve looked too slimmed down for the role, which was seemingly reflected in his appearance in the suit (much less mighty looking than in Superman III kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqPKmHxjfrh8h8U),. His hairline (which I found out he wore a hair piece throughout the films) looked odd. If Cannon Films didn't hijack half the budget for other projects we would've gotten a much stronger product.

[@maxxt3916]

Brendan, I like you take on this. Great comment about the costume at that point in 1987. I saw this film in the theater back then, and there was zero appetite for it. It was just “there” with little interest.

[@sandersonbr18]

my god... never saw this interview... she was so stoned... and wearing denture also aneroxic look like... the best lois lane ever anyway. R.I.P!

[@stevenwilliam4500]

Those glasses are a joke! Like the film

[@Stevenirons]

That movie is trash

[@TheEarlymtv]

is she high here??

[@purefoldnz3070]

Wtf was she on here? She's high as a kite
