The Man of Steel movie hits theaters today, the latest cinematic reimagining of the iconic character of Superman. And while the “S” logo is recognizable the world over, some people say that the man of steel isn’t the easiest character to identify with, either because he’s too much of a “Boy Scout” with an antiquated moral code, or because his omnipotence and alien origin make him less relatable compared to other superheroes who are more grounded in reality.

Filmmaker Richard Mosse on the parallel between infrared film bringing to light the unseen, and his perception of the Congo’s unseen “humanitarian crisis.”
Gorgeous and surreal. A film about Congo shot entirely on infrared film. Hot pink trees!
The filmmaker/photographer Richard Mosse also makes a great point about what we consider “journalistic” or “true”, saying that we don’t see in black and white, yet we consider Robert Capa’s photos to be closer to “Truth”.
