History / Biographical
"Superman III," 1982, directed by Richard Lester and starring Christopher Reeve, Richard Pryor, Margot Kidder, Annette O'Toole, and Roberta Vaughn. Clark Kent travels to Smallville for his high school reunion and reconnects with childhood sweetheart Lana Lang; meanwhile Lois Lane goes on vacation in the Carribean. Computer programmer Gus Gorman is hired by tycoon Ross Webster to program a machine that will wipe out the entire coffee industry of Columbia, thus giving him the monopoly. This plot is foiled by Superman so Webster orders Gorman to replicate Kryptonite but, unable to identify a missing ingredient, he uses tar, which causes Superman to have a nervous breakdown and splits his identity. Overcoming this, Superman is eventually able to stop Webster's evil machine with Gorman's help and saves the day. Location filming mostly around High River and Calgary. Power plant scenes possibly from Milton Keynes, England. "Superman," 1978, directed by Richard Donner and starring Christopher Reeve, Margot Kidder, Marlon Brando, and Gene Hackman. An origin story for Superman: born on the dying planet Krypton, he is evacuated by his parents and lands on a prairie farm, where he grows up as Clark Kent. After the death of his father, he recieves a psychic call from his deceased biological father and travels to the Arctic to build the Fortress of Solitude, where he trains and eventually becomes the famous caped hero. Meanwhile, Lex Luthor learns of a joint US Army and US Navy missile testing site and steals two missiles with the intent to blow up the San Andreas Fault. Luthor initially succeeds in this plan thanks to the use of Kryptonite on Superman, but as a result Lois Lane is killed, causing Superman to turn back time by flying around the Earth, allowing him to save her and stop the missile. Location filming for mountain scenes done in the Kananaskis Valley and prairie scenes around High River. One of the first motion pictures to film scenes on the newly-constructed highway into the Kananaskis Valley (Kananaskis Country). When a local resident encountered a flatbed truck carrying a U.S. guided missile on the highway (a prop for the movie), he was convinced the U.S. had invaded Canada.
