William Shatner's Mysteries of the Way We Feel

About This Movie

So, 'William Shatner's Mysteries of the Way We Feel' is an interesting little documentary from 1986 that dives into the emotional landscape of children. It’s set in a classroom environment, really trying to unpack how kids experience their feelings and the methods they can use to manage them. The pacing is a bit slow, typical for educational films of that era, giving viewers time to reflect on each segment. There's a certain earnestness in Shatner's delivery, creating a connection with the audience—though, maybe it’s a bit dated now? The practical effects are minimal, but the sincerity shines through, and it’s fascinating to see how these themes of emotional intelligence were approached back then. It's a unique piece for collectors interested in the evolution of educational media.
