How they showed Superman flying away and in the same shot, Clark Kent comes in the door.
OK, I think I know how they did it….
look at 3.51 in this youtube clip, we see over Lois’s shoulder Superman saying goodnight and flying away. Then in the same shot, NO cuts she walks over to the apartment door and lets Clark Ken in… same shot. How they did it?
Had a Superman double in the shot? No, thats clearly Christopher Reeve as Superman in the same scene as Christopher Reeve as Clark Kent. Did they have Reeve get pulled by wires offscreen and he quickly changed out of his Superman suit and into Clark Kent clothes? Possibly but highly unlikely…. Superman could move that fast, Christopher Reeve couldn’t. A hidden jump cut? I’ve rewatched it studied that shot and theres no cut. Today they could hide a cut with a digital morph, you couldn’t do that in 1978.
No, look at 3.51 again. Margot Kidder is standing in front of a PROJECTION of (earlier shot footage of) Christopher Reeve flying away then she walks away from the rear projection scene onto a practical set and then Christopher Reeve as Clark Kent walks in. All done IN CAMERA.
She showed up in a few episodes of the TV show Happy Days as Fonzies girlfriend.
Roz Kelly Portrayed Pinky Tuscadero , the girlfriend of Fonzie, for several episodes, and was planned to become his long-term girlfriend on the show. Roz Kelly annoyed the actors and producers and the character was cut.
(This video is awful, its pulled from wikipedia and uses the WRONG Roz Kelly in most of the pictures)
Prior to appearing on the TV program Happy Days, Roz Kelly worked as a staff photographer for New York Magazine, taking pictures of celebrities like Jimi Hendrix, Soupy Sales, Andy Warhol, Cream, Leonard Cohen, Neil Diamond and photographer Diane Arbus.
November 29, 1998, Roz was arrested for firing a 12-gauge shotgun into the living room window of a neighbor’s house after ” a car alarm woke her up” she also shot the neighbor’s car and another car nearby.
She pleaded no contest to the charge of firing into the house and was sentenced to three years’ felony probation on October 20, 2000. Kelly was also ordered to receive psychiatric counseling and pay restitution as ordered by the probation department. The neighbor was not home at the time
She was sentenced to given 120 days in jail ( on October 27, 2000) after pleading “no contest” to hitting a man with a cane. Roz got credit for the 98 days that she had already spent in jail awaiting sentencing, – avoiding having to spend any more time in jail.
I normally blog about my video production services, or animation / motion graphics services, But I couldn’t resist sharing this trivia about 1970’s television history.
