this movie make a statement about joseph smith and what he stand for and and what the lds church believe . with all the current medium coverage of a certain fugitive people have confuse the lds church with the flds church and criminal fugitive warren jeffs . jeffs be not associate with the lds church yet medium group internationally have ask for comment about jeffs from the lds church . jeffs be not mention in the movie at all but i think that it be ironic that this movie with all it point about joseph also point away from the few of the flds church and their leader at this time in the medium world . this be a movie about joseph smith and a great one at that . some of the most obvious difference between jeffs and joseph be portray in joseph humanity and acceptance and love . jeffs view and opinion differ greatly from joseph smith and the lds church and it be see in this movie . jeffs think of the negro a devil . joseph smith knew they be child of god and give up his wife favorite horse to a african american ( former slave ) to buy his son freedom . joseph be show do housework for his wife emma and be criticize by a member until joseph tell him that a man may lose his wife in the next life if she choose not to stay with her husband and that do chore be a way to help and cherish your wife . jeffs bring one of his polygamist wife to her knee in front of a class full of student by grab her braid and twist it painfully till she come to her knee . lastly joseph participate with law enforcement and seek aid from the government at all time . jeffs thumb his nose at government and flees at all time . i love this movie and if you do not know much about joseph smith and what the lds church believe and then this be the movie to see . and if you have confuse the lds church with the flds church then you really need to get your act together . we be not much different from anyone who believe in jesus christ and the sanctity of marriage and the family and as well a patriotic to our homeland and country . we be all different as well just like you can find different protestant and presbyterian and methodist and baptist and catholic . what important be our message and what we stand for . this movie try to portray that but there be so much of joseph life that can not be cover in a mere 2 hour movie . this be a really great show .
