Film and TV star Margot Kidder passed away at
69 in her sleep. Hers was a story of tragedy and triumph. I remember seeing her
in the Hitchcockian thriller Sisters from 1973 and then she broke out with the
blockbuster Superman in 1978 as a definitive Lois Lane; I was there opening weekend waiting in a huge line! As
her star faded and she suffered from bipolar disorder, she made a comeback on
the big and small screen (winning an Emmy Award). I met her at Horrorfind Convention in 2009. Such a
sweet person and still a beauty. She will always be soaring with Christopher
Reeve's Superman as John WIlliams' "Can You Read My Mind" plays
forever.
