Superman´s Technique

"In the Superman movies Christopher Reeves (prior to his tragic accident) used the Technique to define the physical difference between his dual characters of Clarke Kent and Superman. If you watch any one of these movies with Christopher Reeves, you can see him put the principles of the Technique to work as an actor. As Superman he would ´Go Up´ to stand tall in a manner that displays an obvious ease and balance in movement. When the cape came off, Clarke Kent would ´Pull Down´ or slump and with the loss of balance, his movements become awkward, unbalanced and clumsy in accordance with that character."
