| Description: | Master 1804 - Tape 1 MS ethereal actor WILLIAM SHATNER rehearsing equally ethereal reading on stage, symphony playing in BG: "Children peruse their ancient past once more. This corpse floating on a placid--" Rear view MS conductor. MS William Shatner rehearsing on stage, overacting & being as dramatically hammy as Captain Kirk was in his later interpretations: "Planet as it climbs towards the sun!" Sideview MS conductor waving baton. CU William Shatner being interviewed, speaking to off-screen reporter about multimedia event: "I’m going to do Arthur C. Clark’s The Childhood’s End, part of the last chapter in which the last man on earth is describing the end of the world. I’m doing that to music by Charles Ives and Stravinsky and lasers and effects and background projection. Kind of a unique idea. I will be on for about 20 minutes with the symphony & that’s my contribution to the evening’s entertainment. I might add that it’s terrific entertainment." Sideview MS/CUs conductor waving baton. | |
