"Superman: II" Outdoor Screening at San Antonio Museum of Art
by Neil Cole
The San Antonio Museum of Art in collaboration with Slab Cinema will present a special outdoor screening of "Superman: II" on Friday, August 30th beginning at sundown as part of their Movies in the Family series.
Directed by Richard Lester, the film stars Golden Globe-nominee Christopher Reeve ("The Remains of the Day", "Deathtrap") in his second starring role as the Man of Steel alongside Academy Award-winner Gene Hackman ("The Birdcage", "Unforgiven"), Margot Kidder ("Amityville Horror") as Lois Lane, Ned Beatty ("Deliverance") as Otis, Sarah Douglas ("Conan The Destroyer") as Ursa, Jack O'Halloran ("Dragnet") as Non, and Academy Award-nominees Valerie Perrine ("ER") and Terence Stamp ("The Adventures of Priscilla: Queen of the Desert").
The sequel to the box office smash, "Superman: The Movie" continues the great adventures of the Man of Steel as Superman enters the battle of his life when he fights to save the planet Earth from three intergalactic arch-criminals whose powers are as fantastic as his own. Spectacular action, unlimited surprises abound, as Superman again faces a cosmic confrontation between good and evil.
Admission is free and open to the general public. Attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, blankets, and picnics. During inclement weather, the movie screening will unfortunately be cancelled.
