Emma Smith: My Story is a fascinating look at the embryonic years of the Mormon Church from the perspective an aging Emma, played by Patricia Place. Katherine Nelson stars as the younger Emma and Nathan Mitchell stars as Joseph. Cinematographer, T.C. Christiansens signature is all over this movie delivering a rich, authentic feel and the performances are outstanding. Emma Smith: My Story is touching, insightful and provides a perspective that is long overdue. I thoroughly enjoyed this film, Emma Smith: My Story is rated PG and Im giving it 3 stars. Also opening this weekend... "Street Kings" starring Keanu Reeves, Forest Whitaker and Hugh Laurie. The violent crime thriller is getting mixed reviews. One critic says it's not about cops cleaning up the streets, but rather cops cleaning up after themselves. "Smart People" is a smart, dramatic comedy starring Dennis Quaid and Sarah Jessica Parker... which addresses some serious topics. And, the typical horror flick with a high school setting... "Prom Night".
