Fascinating, May 24, 2000
This review is from: Intimate Portrait: Margot Kidder [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Truly a one-of-a-kind actress. Margot's career (and life, for that matter) is one of the most interesting ever to emerge from Hollywood. Margot, along with costars, friends and family, discusses the incredible high and low points she's endured over the past few decades with humor, honesty and warmth. When I was five years old, I remember seeing Superman: The Movie in theaters for the first time and saying, "Mommie, WHO is THAT! " At that moment, I developed a permanent crush on Lois Lane which has since developed into great respect and admiration. It's very exciting to see her best movies being released on DVD this year (Superman, Sisters, Quackser Fortune has a Cousin in the Bronx) and it's even more exciting to see her working steadily again (Common Ground, Annihilation of Fish, Crime and Punishment). Not to mention the release of her long-in-progress book, "Calamities" (in October... finally! ) Brunette leading ladies may come and go, but there is only one Margot. I highly recommend adding Margot Kidder's "Intimate Portrait" to your collection.

This review is from: Intimate Portrait: Margot Kidder [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Agree wholeheartdly with Matthew Forke's review,this video presentation of "Intimate Portrait:MargotKidder" is a well-produced & directed pictorial by Lee Grant narrated by Stacey Keach. Comprehensive,insightful,jam-packed with colour/BW still's and coupled with interviews woven through-out with Margot herself brother John Kidder and film-industry friend's Christopher Reeve*Richard Donner*John Heard and writer Rosie Shuster. This bio-documentary chronicle's Kidder's life from childhood/teen's growing up in Canada in mining towns to University dropping-out & moving to LA making film's, falling-in-love thrice-times, Lois Lane-stardom and Superman-Success, publisicised Bankruptcy/car-accident and Manic-depression struggles and recovery Notoriety. An absolutely telling and captivating story about an authenticly funny woman whom does'nt take herself too-seriously. Film career highlight's and lows, Kidder's life! More amazing than Superman, refreshing candor A Must See for Fan's of this talented actress.

Quite simply not worth the space this review would take up. And can someone stop this Adrian character writing those aweful Margot Kidder reviews.
