I’ve always thoroughly enjoyed this film.
This Pic makes him and the Hof look like brothers
Such a good movie!
Put Christopher Reeves on a unicycle with a kickstand
Kick it up and push him and lead him right into quicksand
Here, you need a hand, big man? Grab hold of this branch
With both hands, man, they don’t understand I’m just a sick man đ
Mackinaw Island is one of my favorite places to visit. Now I’m going to watch this movie.
loved that cheesy movie
God the ending of that movie made me cry. When he found that penny. I remember saying, he lost her forever.
I freaking love this movie!
No cars allowed on Mackinac Island.
He’s an American hero. No comic book actor comes close to his uprightness and heroic aura.
What a strange and sad turn of events: both he and his wife Dana! SenselessâŚđâŽď¸
R.I.P. sir.
Love this movie so much. Always wanted to go see the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island.
I met him twice, in my teens when he was just starting out. He was the nicest, kindest guy you could ever meet.
I like to imagine an alternate timeline where he ends up making his way to the White House and just Superman-ing the hell out of the job. Sigh.
Loved this movie!
Lived there that summer as a very badly behaved teen. It was fun watching the filming.
Checking his pockets for change.
Bike appears to be an actual Schwinn. But it was a horse that got him. RIP, Mr. Reeves.
ahhhh, Mackinac. I can still smell the horses.
Surprisingly good and memorable film (with a great soundtrack) !
Written by sci-fi legend Richard Matheson who wrote some of the most famous Twilight Zone episodes (eg Nightmare at 20,000 Feet, Nick of Time, Button Button), I Am Legend, Duel (one of Spielbergâs early films), and A Stir of Echoes.
Matheson even has a small cameo in the film (as does William H Macy and George Wendt).

Theresa Wright played the older woman. She was a hottie in her younger days!
I thought he couldnât walk.
Such a handsome man, and a great actor
He was such a hunk
OMG! Donât look at the penny!
That movie was a very nice love story
My dad was working at the hotel while they filmed this! He has always said Christopher Reeve was a very good man.
Hopefully he got to enjoy some peaches
When I was a kid, we did the thing where we rode our bikes around the island with our parents. I have no real memory of how far that is. But considering I was a kid, I’m guessing it wasn’t that far.
My dad had a Raleigh Tourister he took everywhere.
This is a family favorite. â¤ď¸
I â¤ď¸that movie!
I just watched this movie last nightâŚ.
One of my all time favorite movies.
Excellent movie
One of my wife’s and my favorite, memorable and romantic films we’ve ever shared/watched. We had Rachmaninoff “Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini” playing on our wedding day. She has “Somewhere in Time” on her Pandora and I have been madly in love with the most beautiful Lady Jane Seymour since I saw her in “Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger” in 1977, I believe.
The people who live on Mackinac have some wild and interesting stories about the filming of the movie since a lot of them were extras.
Should have stuck with bikes.
Though it was the David hasslehoff for a minute.
Remember watching this when I was like 10 or so. Got hooked and had to watch the entire movie. At that young of an age. Absolutely loved it and still do.
I worked the flight line at Brainard Field in Connecticut back in the late 1970s and he would often fly in and I would take care of his Beech Baron and arrange his pick-up driver, etc. He was always good for a $20 tip for a poor undergrad lineman. Fast forward to the early 80s when I was flight line chief and working on my ATP license at Albert Whitted Field in St. Pete, FL. He flew in to SPG and we ended up taking my MG Midget out for a lunch run. I remember that he could barely fit in the car. All we talked about was flying. He was a sweet person and surreal-ly handsome and remarkably humble. I still grieve for him.
RIP Chris. Good dude.
Before he walknât
Come back to me…
Christopher Reeeves is so sweet and handsome in this photo.
