[@67maverick]

When Superman came out I was chocked. Because I could not understand how they could have found an exact copy of the cartoon superman. He was a copy of how I imagined Superman in reality

[@WalterLiddy]

A fine actor, but he can't fool me. He's Superman.

[@scotia7326]

I’ll Always remember my father - who is the world’s biggest cynic and rarely respects anyone - speaking with so much affection for this man and his life. I seen the first superman film at the age of 6 with him, and still remember the look of excitement on his face when superman first flew. Thanks for everything, Chris.

[@MrZomBie775]

Christopher Reeve has always been an inspiration for me. He always seemed so humble and caring but at the same time confident and assured. He'll always be Superman to me.

[@jackclements2163]

He'll always be my Superman. I think most people born during the late 60's going to the 80's and were children or young enough to see his movies might say that too.

[@andyroo9381]

Christopher Reeve was my first celebrity crush. I was so young, at the time of Superman, that I did not know what "it" was to crush on a man. He was so handsome then and now in this interview. His emotional intelligence really comes through in this interview. I wish he was still with us.

[@paulinejordan6905]

He was the true definition of handsome 🤩

[@johnt7630]

Christopher Reeve will always be Superman, just like Sean Connery will always be James Bond, Mark Hamill will always be Luke Skywalker, Robert Downey Jr will always be Iron Man, William Shatner as Capain Kirk, Roddy McDowall - Planet of the Apes etc.... It's positive. It means that you made a huge Impression on the audience. You were loved.

[@MrTroy808]

Christopher Reeve was a real Superman on and off the camera.

[@MartinT5600]

I loved this man!. I idolised him growing up and regret not writing the letter I had in my mind to him leading up to his death.

[@kamuelalee]

RIP Chris, missed greatly!

[@Crisis.Knight]

I jump to this video like water in a desert. Thanks a lot for this gem. Christopher Reeve is kind of person that when I see him, I wish I could see more interviews of him today.

[@انت-صلي-عالنبي-بس]

What a respectful personality 🌷

[@davidoconnell4100]

A lovely inspiring man. Like Michael Fox, his trials made the nice guy a hero.

[@vietnameeseguy]

He’d still be acting now if the accident never happened. Would’ve loved to see what roles he would’ve taken as he would’ve aged.

[@stephenrafter1980]

He is my favourite superman 🦸‍♂️ and the best superman 🦸‍♂️ He was a great human being.

[@timholbrook7671]

What a truly charming interview, or really, conversation. Cavett always seemed to have the gift of being people out of themselves. In this case, he brought Chris Reeve out to us, the viewer. His personality was so riveting and real. Very impressed. The tragic irony of life. We, just don't know what will become of us! In any event, another winner for Cavett. RIP Chris..

[@venpad]

Wow Christopher Reeves is so intelligent.

[@benjaminperez7328]

Julliard doesn’t accept dummies! *Reeve

[@gatch2]

What a wonderful man ! What a great loss ! 😢🖤

[@tomedward8652]

Dick Cavett kept interrupting Reeve's just as he was about to make an interesting point, once when describing about a close up shot and once again when talking about Brando. Normally I like Cavett as an interviewer but in this interview he was off key.

[@swatson6900]

I've watched several of Cavett's interviews where he continuously interrupts. It's as if he's perpetually struck with whims to say something funny but can't suppress them long enough for the other person to complete a sentence.

[@andreo.7633]

Agreed just this one or very rarely but yes. Both are great tho both

[@krissmgvlogs]

With that face he could never be anyone else but Superman! Where's the rest of this interview, more, I want more!

[@JohnnyBeane]

Great tips!

[@paulasarkar2981]

A classy American artist with integrity, intellect, and class -- something that modern USA is sorely lacking.

[@Jackkenway]

What a great tip from a great gentlemen! In a nutshell, he said that acting is acting like you're not acting, meaning if you when play a part where you have to act surprised, if you think about it and try to act surprised, you're in trouble and the audience will notice that.

[@suddeneye9836]

He was definitely a part of a pioneering effort. I miss him. I only wish Hollywood would have caught up to his breakthrough with the other heroes.

[@VanessaDo-lu7cd]

Rip christopher Reeve superman

[@kash7585]

2 great men. ❤️

[@christopherfortunato6018]

I sort of forgot what a stud he was.

[@aristostovboulimienne2743]

I would like to travel back in the time and tell him :"Never ride a horse again you ll have a terrific accident".He would probably say:"Don't worry for me I am superman!"

[@ssssssssssssssssss50]

I'm not sure if Chris was joking or not about Brando telling him "I really respect what you're trying to do"

[@catheline51]

He also WAS Alan Pinkerton in "The Rose and the Jackal." head of the Secret Service during the Civil War. He had a thick Scottish accent in that film. Very intense role and he just hemorrhaged sex appeal. My favorite role he played.

[@benjaminperez7328]

Jeez Louise people! It’s REEVE not REEVES!!! It’s the first thing Dick addresses in this clip!!!!!! Holy 💩!!!!!

[@defaultdan9715]

Boy, they way he confronted Brando. I must say that after all I've heard about the guy, he seems like such a jerk but I really like that Brando showed some respect after Reeve confronted him. I really wish both of these actors were alive today. Mostly Reeves which is probably a given. Life can be so cruel to people who don't deserve it, while simultaneously being way to generous to people that deserve to be behind bars. Any notion of karma is soon dashed.

[@javamola4771]

He can move his hands and Cross his feet over here , something that he couldn't do it in the last ten or so years of his life R.I.P dear Reeve

[@JinhuoXiChina]

You don't have why to mark ths obvious 😡

[@TheKitchenerLeslie]

After filming The Graduate, Dustin Hoffman was on Unemployment Insurance, then he took whatever he could to get off of it. By that time, The Graduate had been released. so he could be more choosy... then he did Midnight Cowboy... which his manager tried to talk him out of... then he was cemented as a legit actor.

[@markbennett259]

Interesting!

[@jagath2487]

He would've been really happy snd proud to see his son, Keanu Reeve excelling as an actor in Hollywood. His son really did grow beyond his identity as Christopher Reeve's son that we almost always forget that it was this incredible man, his father, who inspired him to become such a legendary actor and a wonderful human being. Love both of em. ❤️

[@klaatu_347]

yo what

[@TheRidgeChannel]

Nonsense !!?! Ha ha

[@ernesto1391]

Sorry pal but there's no relation there . Keanu is from Canada

[@ViaticalTree]

He would most certainly be so proud of his son, Keanu, who is definitely his son.

[@jagath2487]

Lol. Sarcasm frens. And I thought that it isn't all that rare these days.

[@nataliedelagrandiere4022]

He seems nice.

[@MrTroy808]

They did Justice League too late. it would of been so awesome if they had Christopher Reeve (Superman), Micheal Keaton (Batman) and Linda Carter (Wonder Woman) together in one big buget theatrical film as thier DC characters back in the day.

[@hongkongcantonese501]

I really wish Dick would let the guest finish a thought.

[@DavianSinner]

That was bugging me.

[@princessnessahoangdo1589]

Good afternoon morning morning good night Chris Reeve

[@denis888red]

Remember the days of actual 'talk' shows? With smart, well informed interviewers like Cavett and Parkinson. When you'd get a real insight into a person's personality...instead of someone simply popping in to flog their latest crapola, studio blockbuster. Newer isn't necessarily better. Ain't that the truth....

[@bletheringfool]

It still happened with Wogan and Parky. You should check out Wogan and Betty Davis

[@elronaldese]

He looked good in 1992, he was 40. Easily could made another Superman film then.

[@rankingtrevor]

A true successor to Superman 2. Unlike the garbage that was 3 and 4 🗑

[@elronaldese]

@@rankingtrevor yep but with another Lois, I think. Margot Kidder was already showing her age in Superman IV (1987).

[@frizzyred1292]

lol 40 isnt old id like to think he looked good.

[@jedijones]

@@elronaldese Lana had moved to Metropolis. Could've just continued with her.

[@welshhibby]

He was great in silence of the lambs.

[@melissamorales7127]

Ugh, where's the rest of the interview?

[@mariamassey5468]

THAT IS ONE PATIENT CAT

[@Cuenta-c5x]

The best, the last , the only son of krypton. Forever😎

[@mLi75]

Fortnum & Mason. Good stuff

[@alevine1951]

"What you really need to do is just make smart decisions." Little did he know....

[@stephenrafter1980]

Gosh

[@wizkidsvideos]

We lost such a great classy young man when Reeves died.

[@brendanbannon78]

Christopher Reeve Portrayed Superman in the Movies and Helen Slater Portrayed Supergirl from 1984 Movie Spin-off Before Melendy Britt voiced She-Ra in the Secret of the Sword (1985) Terri Hawkes and Stephanie Sheh Voiced Sailor Moon in anime Movies until Brandon Routh return Superman in Superman Returns (2006) with Red Boots and Red Cape

[@krishshautriya5170]

Damn, he was smart.

[@johnst3296]

The only Superman. Retire that role 😥

[@JinhuoXiChina]

I didn't knew Marlon Brando was mean to Christopher so sad cause i love them Both so much

[@shaunshaikh7138]

Wow check out Superman playing a mortal Christopher Reeves

[@bobbowie5334]

A week later he's _Ironside._

[@AGC828]

So sad we had to loose him so soon and his wife shortly after. LIfe. We never know when and how. At least we got to "meet" CR playing Superman like no one has before and since. I doubt there will be another as good or better. So far in the decades that have past there has not. CR was destined for this role. He was "built" to play Superman....his look has been unmatched for the role. And he brought dimenins to the role. Being an Ive League grad I think that helped greatly in making him believeable also as Clark Kent. Sadly becasue he made his mark as Superman he could play no other role after. He was too good as Superman. Oddly he never got any good breaks in film afterwards.

[@princessnessahoangdo1589]

Superman 2 3 Jon cryer and Christopher reeve 😛😎🤓

[@bernardoschmidt]

I can't believe Dick interrupted him with an idiotic joke in such an important moment!...

[@powysdewhurst]

Damn it Dick. Why do you talk over the good stuff? Reeve was just about to say what he and Brando discussed and you undercut it all to bring it back to you. Please know when not to interrupt your guests.

[@swatson6900]

The only thing that would've made this interview better was if Cavett could've found a way to clip and cut off Reeve's sentences even more.

[@DavidCarroll-t5g]

Cavett was in Beetlejuice??

[@Gannooch]

i have nothing against the other celebs that were on this show but is this channel ever going to show the Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Art Carney or Jackie Gleason? How about any Honeymooners actors that were a part of the main cast?

[@sratus]

Christ it would've been great to hear what Brando said back, but Cavett tried to be funny instead and the moment was lost. Bad interviewing.

[@piranha5506]

He sent him flowers. He also told him not to do his own stunts.

[@piranha5506]

On another note is that McCartney’s mouth as your profile picture.

[@sratus]

@@piranha5506 yep

[@benoakes01]

Sounds like Reeve didn’t like Brando at all from what I’ve seen

[@theflorgeormix]

Superman l & ll great classics. Never done better. Cavill is close. He has it also.

[@rankingtrevor]

BOTH classics agreed. Even the musical score by J Williams 🤘🏾

[@marcwaters2600]

i feel there was alot of jealousy from actors that christopher reeve had to put up with

[@wellesradio]

Christopher’s dear friend Robin Williams said that even after winning an Oscar random strangers still said, “Hey, Mork! Nanoo! Nanoo!” Art Carney, too. But then that happens easily to actors who made it big in television. Christopher Reeve played a movie character. If no one had come along to continue the Bond legacy, Sean Connery would have been stuck in that rut. Hollywood just wasn’t making superhero movies back then, so there was no chance that a succession of actors would have relieved Christopher of that mantle. Even if they were all duds, it would have been better to be seen as “the best Superman” rather than just Superman.

[@sratus]

Pointless drivel

[@k.r.fonsecadasilva4860]

The host wants to speak as much (or more🙄) as his guest. He keeps interrupting ALL Christopher's answers. WORST interviewer I've seen so far (and im 48).

[@MrMelgibstein]

Easter Expess was the name of the horse.

[@MrMelgibstein]

I dont blame the horse.The Third obstacle was oddly placed and the horse decided not to jump, but allowed Chris to take a whack at it.

[@robertcarr4172]

Looks like he is wearing a hairpiece here

[@NFGate]

Dick would always talk too much. We want to hear the guest, not Dick ramble on.

[@FFrrEEddRRiiKK1]

The only real Superman.

[@alteredbeast7145]

He would have been proud of man of steel.

[@somethingyousaid5059]

Once upon a time the human race was none the worse for its non-existence. That's all.

[@ricarleite]

One question he should have asked, "Has anyone ever told you DON'T RIDE A FUCKING HORSE?!"

[@nataliedelagrandiere4022]

The subject of the interview is not interesting.
