Why Superman is a turning point for cinema

We’re back from our summer break and straight into the season’s most anticipated cinematic event. Fresh from an early screening of Superman, Ben and Dash weigh in on a film that’s already turning heads for its scale and style. But can the film convince superhero-fatigued audiences that it's much more than your average comic book movie? Plus: why the Man of Steel has always been a political figure (and why he still should be), and a glance back at his very first feature film appearance in 1951’s Superman and the Mole Men. Capes on — At the Pictures returns.
