    I only saw Glenn Ford as Pa Kent in the Superman movie with Christopher Reeve but it did leave an impression because I always seems to remember the dying scene which I think Ford did a great job and which I kind of also think William Shatner sort of did something similar in Star Trek: Generations movie but that may just be a coincident.

    Anyway, I hope you all have fun with the blogathon.

    Have a lovely day.

      Lissa, I love that he got to be Superman's adopted dad in that :-) He was so sweet!

      I haven't seen Star Trek: Generations because I refuse to see Captain Kirk die, because if I don't watch it, it didn't happen in my own personal headcanon, hee.

      Thank you, J-Dub! I'm intrigued to see what sports analogies you found within that, since it's a movie I love and have seen many times :-)
