New documentary explores actor Christopher Reeve's life and legacy

In 1978, Christopher Reeve made the world believe in superheroes with his portrayal of Superman in the eponymous film. The star died in 2004, nearly a decade after suffering a tragic accident that re-shaped his life and his family's. Now, the documentary "Super/Man" shows us just how heroic Reeve was in real life. Michelle Miller has more. "Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story" will be in theaters on Friday, October 11.

"CBS Saturday Morning" co-hosts Jeff Glor, Michelle Miller and Dana Jacobson deliver two hours of original reporting and breaking news, as well as profiles of leading figures in culture and the arts. Watch "CBS Saturday Morning" at 7 a.m. ET on CBS and 8 a.m. ET on the CBS News app.
