Mirror Spock was not just Spock with a beard
IDK who was the DOP on the TOS episodes, but they made a ton of use of light and shadow on tight shots. It's honestly quite heavy handed at times -- the best example is probably "The Enemy Within."

Kickass post, Flying Squid.
I love breakdowns like these. A lot more effort goes into all this stuff than people think!
Props to propmakers, lighting techs, set engineers, set designers, makeup artists, hairdressers, grips, gaffers, and production assistants in general.

5Cool fact!! Not sure I’d call lighting sUbLiMe though. It’s not exactly an uncommon tool in the toolbox of cinema
