Christopher Reeve documentary

Anyone else watched it?

I found it an emotional watch.

I loved him to much to watch it. 😪

It was really well done. I loved that it was directed by his son, it was very personal.

I feel like I didn’t fully know what he did after the accident and definitely hadn’t realised just how amazing the whole family were/are.

What channel etc was this on please?

I thought it was excellent. Told from various family members and friends points of view and so very sad that his wife passed away too.

Where can we watch this?

It would be nice if posters could routinely mention which platform that a programme or film they are talking about is on. There are endless channels and streaming services nowadays.

So I googled, and it appears to be on Sky/Now TV.

I watched it with my Now Tv but it was on a sky channel.

I like that it was very honest. Talked about his flaws.

I also like that they briefly touched on wealth inequalities difference in care available.

I wish there'd been more about his wife's cancer and treatment.

I saw this at the cinema. Couldn't stop crying during the Robin Williams scenes, and when I saw his dog on its own at the end 😭

I saw it a few weeks ago and found it so touching. I didn't realise how much movement he had regained before he died. I love his Superman movies and Somewhere in Time, and think he could have made some more great choices.

It was heartbreaking!

I remember at the time what a fantastic friend Robin Williams proved to be and I agree with the lady at the end who said she though RW would still be alive if Chris was.😥

Then Chris's poor wife dying only 18 months after he did leaving 13 year old Will an orphan.

It was lovely to see the close relationship between Will and his 2 half siblings though and he has grown into a lovely young man who has recently got engaged.

I agree, the documentary was so well done.

I haven't seen it yet (on Now) but it's available to watch on iTunes and Prime, if you don't have Sky or Now.
