The new biopic looks at the life of legendary actor Christopher Reeve, both before and after his tragic horse riding accident which left him paralyzed from the neck down. The actor of course is best known for his legendary portrayal of the Man of Steel in the Superman film series, a performance still loved by fans over 40 years later.
