Margot Kidder: notes from Metropolis

Studio portrait of actress Margot Kidder seated upon a white stool against a plain pale backdrop. She wears a light blue blouse with gathered sleeves, a cream-coloured skirt, and dark heeled sandals. Holding a notepad and pen loosely in her hands, she appears poised between observation and reflection, as though preparing to interview a subject or record a thought. Her dark hair falls to her shoulders with soft bangs framing her face. The minimalist composition, gentle lighting, and restrained palette draw attention to her calm expression and direct gaze. The photograph emphasises intelligence, composure, and quiet confidence, presenting Kidder in a natural, unpretentious manner rather than through the glamour typically associated with Hollywood publicity portraits of the era.

Columbia Pictures

Wishing one and all a very happy Canada Day. Celebrating with Yellowknife native Margot Kidder, known to the world as the definitive Lois Lane, seen here in a promotional still for the first Superman film from 1978.
