Want to watch a film starring the actors who played the following #StarTrek characters?

• #Kurn's Tony Todd
• #DoctorPhlox's John Billingsley
• Seamus, #JeremyLucas and #Batai's Richard Riehle
• #Zahir's David Lee Smith

as well as #AnnikaPeterson, #AlexisThorpe, #EllenCrawford and #WilliamKatt?

Then here's my periodic reminder that #TheManFromEarth exists and is proof you don't need a big budget and a lot of sets to make a brilliant film.
Just a great story (in this case a screenplay by #JeromyBixby, who also penned several #STTOS episodes) and good actors who can portray that story.

The Man From Earth, I don't know how often I've watched this #film so far, but after all these times, it's still such a great #movie to watch...

The premise, what if your friend claims to have been born as a #CroMagnon, and has thus supposedly has lived for thousands of years, is such an intriguing one.
The setting, your friend's home and yard, and the company of friends, is so uncomplicated and low-budget, which really helps put the focus on the story.

It does feature familiar actors, but I don't feel like they have been type-cast, and they just feel right for the roles. Actors include #TonyTodd (known for playing #Kurn on #StarTrek) and #JohnBillingsley (#DoctorPhlox on #STEnterprise), #RichardRiehle (who played #Batai on the excellent episode The Inner Light, but also Seamus in the Voyager holodeck episodes), which is kinda fitting as the story is based on a 1969 Star Trek episode called 'Requiem for Methuselah', which was also written by #JeromeBixby.
Other actors include #EllenAnnCrawford (known for her role as Nurse Lydia Wright on ER), #AlexisAnnThorpe (Days of Our Lives), #WilliamKatt (The Greatest American Hero), #DavidLeeSmith and #AnnikaPeterson.
