I bought this video when it was first released and LOVED it. The video was later borrowed and somehow never found it way home, finding its way to many other homes as it followed a daisy chain of concurrent borrowers. Great to see it again.

This is o e of the BEST Star Trek Interviews/Documentaries... it's packed with "personal" insight and hindsight. It really is a good watch xx

[FINNEGANAGENNIF]

This conversation reveals their individual (but not opposite) distinctions. They needed each other's vision to gain a greater perspective, memories to bounce off of, to reveal new insights into themselves. They could spark or "reach" something better than isolated thoughts alone.Their personalities worked so well to complement a greater whole of understanding, even enlightenment...

I had never seen this before...so wonderful to see these two getting along so well and laughing and reliving the show and movies. Thanks so much for posting it!

I hadn't seen this since it came out on DVD around 2004 or so. It remains the very best of looks inside the Trek experience and also outlooks of life in general.

Because of Star Trek, Shatner got to actually travel into space. If Nimoy had been alive, maybe they both could have traveled into space together, although there was a bit of a falling out between them before Nimoy died.

Gees, I remember when this came out. Can't believe it's been 21 years, time is flying by so fast

These two and Doc Mc Coy DeForest Kelly. The heroes of my childhood and beyond. Love the three of them but most especially Leonard Nimoy. The magic they created does indeed Live Long and Prosper.

nice, was just listening to "Leonard
My Fifty-Year Friendship with a Remarkable Man" audiobook and heard this doc mentioned...
edit: oh wow awesome, just finished it, I've always seen Shatner being sarcastic and jokey in other interviews, this is probably the first and last time seeing this authentic side of him
edit 2: I can't believe how much is taken from this interview for the book

Thanks so much for posting this! Been wanting to see it for years but it's hard to find. And nice touch posting it on Leonard's birthday 🖖🖖🖖

It is possible to have meaningful interactions with co-workers, and from time to time you really do form life-long friendships. But it is useful to remember WHY you were brought together in the first place. There is a distinct difference between a "work family" and a "real family". One shouldn't sacrifice one for the sake of the other, but if ONE of them must go, it has to be the "work family". This is a bitter lesson for some people, but an important one.

Thanks for sharing, I didn't know about these interviews. Interesting if short

That must be narcissism "I never had a alcohol problem, my wife had". 😂😂😂

One of my all-time favorite actors, William Shatner, and one of my most favorite characters, Mr. Spock. But I have always felt that Shatner's lack of understanding of Star Trek as a real art diminished him in some ways. Star Trek is no less an art form than any other, and even in this two-way interview, it seemed to evade Shatner. Yes, Star Trek is a sci-fi fantasy, but what do you call Hamlet? There isn't anything real about that made-up story. When you look at the star-studded lineup of actors that worked on the series, that in itself tells a story of its importance to the art and the entertainment industry. This show is the reason Shatner was able to go to space in real life. I can relate to his frustration with trying to understand his coworkers that may have seen him as overbearing at times. Who of us hasn't experienced that where we work or worked at one time in our own lives? The complaint at work about me was that I was "difficult". Not that they didn't like me or hated me, but that I was difficult. I found that description acceptable and amusing!

@thewarpcore2891 Thank you very much for posting this video. I had heard of it when it originally came out but never had the opportunity to watch it. I am so appreciative of the chance you've given us to see it now. Again, many thanks.
