The City on the Edge of Forever
Watching the Stark Trek episode in which Joan Collins guests as a woman named Edith Keeler; the do-gooder is destined to die or else the Allied powers will lose World War II.
It's an hour episode, but it plays like a movie. The tragedy. The score. The story.
William Shatner and Collins have great chemistry.
Kirk lets Edith get killed by a car so that history can unfold in its proper path.
But was there a way to save her?
Could Jim have taken Edith back with him?
Aren't there alternate realities in which outcomes are different?

There's an entire mirror universe!

I remember reading a non-canonical Trek novel in which Spock said there was no such thing as a “alternate/mirror universe”.
He said “universe” was the term for everything in existence which includes alternate/mirror realities.

Even back then they were layering cheesecloth over the camera lens for Collins.
