“Super/man: The Christopher Reeve Story” is a touching documentary that honors the legacy of, not just Chris, but Dana Reeve as well. A depiction of a loving family who stayed hopeful through stunning adversity, and a man who, while imperfect, was truly super! @DCOfficial

The new feature doc from @MisfitsLDN is now on Hulu! Check out New Yorker piece about the film below. Loving this #thecontestant @hulu @clairtitley @Ianbonhote
The Hulu documentary “The Contestant” revisits a strange early chapter of reality-television history, balancing absurd archival footage with its grave physical and psychological effects.
