this be an awful and wretched and painful and terrible film and rank second only to the excremental smear that be september dawn on the list of inept cinematic portrayal of lds history . question of history aside and it just horribly make and with cinematography that look like an 8mm home movie and and act that wouldn not pass in a junior high school play . the end sequence be one of the most hilariously ludicrous in movie history . unlike the utterly worthless september dawn ( which i can not stress enough may be the bad film ever make ) and brigham have some value a a sort plan 9 from out space type curiosity . if you want to laugh at the silliness of it all and and see joseph smith portray a bull shannon and it may be worth your time .
