Mind-Sifter Salmon Pages.Fdx
"MIND SIFTER" STAR TREK PHASE II Introduction from our screenwriter Rick Chambers: I have many great memories related to "Mind-Sifter," from the moment I was asked to create the teleplay from Shirley's magnificent story to the long hours and unflagging enthusiasm of the shoot. One memory that's especially dear to me is linked to the memorial service. While I was working on the teleplay in December 2013, my mother was dying. She was in hospice as I wrote the chapel scene and passed away as I finished the script. So the words I gave to McCoy, about the need to mourn, how it's part of life, and how we move on from grief and despair to hope, all were themes I was dealing with personally at the time. Then, when we shot the scene months later, and Jeff Bond delivered that powerful performance, I was in tears because those words were so right, so true. They resonate in the next scene, too, when Kirk makes his escape from the Klingons ; with his life seemingly about to end, he finds that window of hope, where "grace will lead me home," as the song goes at that moment he leaps through the Guardian. All of this was very meaningful for me personally -- and, I hope, meaningful for those who watch the episode. We shot all asylum shots at Ticonderoga High School. Our producer, Rob Mauro did extensive research and the architecture is period correct! TEASER FADE IN: 1 INT. ASYLUM HALLWAY--NIGHT 1 A dimly lit hallway, old and rough at the edges, a facility operating on a shoestring. -
