"The Comic Strip Hero" made by the BBC in 1981 for their Arena programme. It documents the popularity of Superman and his portrayal in the movies.
It contains some great interviews with the creators of Superman, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. Also, interviews with Superman actors Kirk Alyn and Christopher Reeve. It also features comic book people such as Will Eisner (creator of the Spirit) and Trina Robbins; it has the science fiction writer Larry Niven talking about the science of Superman and also has Margot Kidder and David Prowse.

@LooneyLimeyWhisper66 You corrected yourself :-)
Yes, you're right it was 1st shown by the BBC in 1981 as it coincide with release of Superman 2!!

I saw this documentary in 1978!!! it's older than 81 i think. I recorded the audio on a tape recorder when I was 12. Haven't seen this then!
Footnote: I'm wrong! It's got Supes 2 in it. Must've been around 80 - 81 after all.

Typo: So many people.

So people have this happened to them. It's sad. Your best is to cut deal that is going to benefit you and them in the long run or start your own company! The latter may sound impossble, but every company starts small. The founder of DC use to be a writer.

I was lucky enough to meet Mr.Segel in 1978 long
before he died. He was a very sweet gentleman..I'm sorry that both
he and Mr.Shuster got cheated out of the profits from
Superman.
