"The movie does not do justice to the script at all. The script was actually pretty clever. The script was basically that a kid asks Superman to get rid of all the nuclear weapons in the world, saying, 'You're Superman! Why can't you do it?'

It ended up with Superman basically deciding that's something Earthlings are going to have to do for themselves, which I thought was an important message at the time.
