“The Captains”

This was really wonderful: William Shatner interviews everyone who’s ever played a captain on a Star Trek project. It’s basically a gushing love letter to everyone involved (and they’re more eccentric than you might imagine) done with total charm and a reasonable amount of indulgence. There are a pair of scenes, at a Trek convention when we meet a boy trapped in a wheelchair, mostly speechless, that offer genuine pathos. Shatner sees him backstage and, immediately, knows how to respond in the kindest possible way. It broke my heart.
