Review of Superman (1978) by Marjorie Baumgarten for Austin Chronicle — 29 Feb 1980
Boasts a smart screenplay by Robert Benton and David and Leslie Newman, striking cinematography by Geoffrey Unsworth (especially in the Smallville sequence), bright comic turns by Margot Kidder and Gene Hackman, and of course, that winning performance by Christopher Reeve in the title role.
Believe a man can fly? You bet!
