The Captains by: William Shatner
With the 45th Anniversary of Star Trek approaching fast, Entertainment One is getting in on the celebration by releasing a documentary called “The Captains” on DVD. William Shatner, Captain James T. Kirk, wrote and directed this documentary. Shatner tries to find an answer as to why his role as Captain Kirk is the one thing he is most recognized for even though he has so many other seemingly larger credits under his belt. The DVD promises vintage footage and up close and personal interviews with several “Captains” of the USS enterprise. Patrick Stewart, from Star Trek Generations, Kate Mulgrew, from Star Trek Voyager and Nemesis, Avery Brooks, from Star Trek Deep Space Nine, Scott Bakula, from Star Trek Enterprise, and Chris Pine, from the Star Trek 2009 movie, will all chime in on what is was like to command a Starship and how it has effected their lives. We are promised a “rare and candid glimpse into the inner sanctum of each actor and their time at the helm of the Starship Enterprise.” This movie originally was shown as part of Shatnerpalooza this past summer and has received rave reviews from fans. The DVD will be released on October 4, 2011 just in time for the 45th anniversary of Star Trek. Official trailer below courtesy of You tube.
I actually saw this in the summer. It has its moments and isn’t all about William Shatner but it does provide some nice details of other stars who have been captain. I really got a new respect for kate mulgrew after watching her interview in the film.
