Nimoy: Spock Before Spock
is of the character Roger, in the American film version of Jean Genet's The Balcony, directed by Joseph Strickland (1963). While fierce combat among various parties in a civil war is raging outside a brothel, inside the prostitutes are acting out various fantasies with the patrons; the chief of police, played by Peter Falk, sets up one of the customers, played by Nimoy, in a scenario with the brothel's accountant, who is wearing a glittering, diaphanous gown, tempting him in a stark, rocky setting that evokes one of the planetary landscapes found later in Star Trek.

Your Say
My earliest memory of Spock is on a Twilight Zone episode where is was a cowboy bully that got his comeuppance at the end.

The music is out of place to the point of distraction.
