Faster Than a Speeding Bullet
The original ‘Superman’ movie is classic enough to not have access to CGI, which meant that Reeves really was flying around, though as we see here he had plenty of help from wires, safety equipment, and crew.
They had to use fans to simulate his flapping cape, and while the look hasn’t exactly held up to modern standards, it still looks good enough to sink in the story and marvel at the power of the last son of Krypton.
Young Movie Heroes
Here we see Harrison Ford and director Steven Spielberg taking a break under the hot sun, while filming what looks like the opening scene of 'Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark'. It's somewhat amazing to see these two Hollywood pillars so young and fresh.
Fresh-faced at least, since they're working in the jungle and under the hot sun.
The Original Hero
The very first person to play the 'Man of Steel' on the silver screen was the famous Christopher Reeves, and many still consider him to be the standard for supermen. His iconic hair curl, lantern jaw, and broad stature created the visual look that we still conjure up when we imagine an American hero.
Reeves was tragically rendered quadriplegic after being thrown from a horse, and requires a portable ventilator just to breath, but he's still a hero to us.
Another Crazy Jack Nicholson Role
Instead of a Clown Prince of Crime, in 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' Jack Nicholson plays a criminal sent to a mental institution, despite the fact he isn't mentally deranged. It's known as one of the greatest films of all time, thanks in part to Nicholson's crazy acting, and the tense nature of living in a mental institution while not belonging there.
His character goes on to wreak havoc in the institution.
Everybody's Crazy Here
While the story has some terrible things happen to Jack Nicholson's character, of course the actors all got along fine when the cameras weren't rolling. Nurses, patients, and members of the crew have all crowded in front of the camera for a big picture.
Things seem to have gotten a bit crazy, even while not acting, and we're sure those who helped work on the movie enjoy having a memory of some fun goofs.
