Its tagline was:"They""re Dancing Cheek-to-Cheek Again."Some consider it to be a glorified re-make of their earlier filmThe Gay Divorcee (1934), with its familiar story of mistaken identity and a similar cast.Poorly received and with the lowest box-office take of all theStar Trekfilms.It was the franchise""s biggest flop in he entire history of the brand.The low return was partially blamed on the studio""s demands to cut 50 minutes of the film, which left out key scenes of developed characterization and plot, and left the film too action-heavy for a typicalTrekfilm.Also in on the meeting was prejudiced anti-mutant Senator Robert Kelly (Bruce Davison) who had supported the Mutant Registration Act that would eliminate peaceful co-existence.The story was built upon Hilton""s own experiences with a senior Master of Classics at a private elitist school in Cambridge.
