Okay, I watched it.

First impressions...not very well done but much what I expected. Considering the subject matter I can't think of how it might have been more well done. Casting was a flop in my book. I didn't cry my eyes out as some say they have done but I don't have roots in Mormonism so that may be why. The way I see it, the Fancher party was no more deceived than the Mormons were deceived.

Just my take, as unpopular as it may be.

Uh...they were all victims of deception.

Right. I got that you are saying they were all deceived. How were the LDS deceived? By their religion? By following orders? How precisely were they deceived? I'm not disagreeing with you -- I just wanted your thoughts on the matter.

All of the above going back to Joseph Smith and then some.

Yes. It was the perfect storm for those men to lose their humanity. Very, very, sad.

Both Lidia and I watched it and thought it was well done.

I don't care if people think it was poorly made. It get the message out.

We had our 14 year old son watch it with us.

Another great DVD to watch is the documentary "Burying the Past".
