It means well, but it's messy

I wish I could give Witnesses a higher rating. After all, it means well, and the acting is good. However, as a film, it's a little messy. First of all, it's a frame story, so there's that element, and then they have three different accounts they're trying to tell at the same time. Plus, in addition to all that, they also jump around in time within those accounts. It gets confusing. And I feel like they tried to cram too much into the movie. I'm fairly familiar with the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, but I imagine Witnesses would be quite confusing for someone who isn't.

Who really wrote this movie

I was watching this movie, and it got to way....too many parts that were based on historical facts, but with some you know- artistic liberties, oddly matched my movie script, that I wrote in 2017, and protected each year... being dirt poor, but paying the fees each time I changed it, to protect it... and then I sent it to two well known people in utah, saying it was copyrighted and protected to see scenes snd details you dreamed up and wrote and stupidly shared with a "trusted friend", it's disturbing, seriously scenes I wrote, things that were unique I had never seen and merged with different stories... example with Catherine, I wrote about her almost seeing the plates and Joseph running to stop her... I wrote that... it wasn't in historical record at all, other than she saw them, too many other unique scenes, bam- in my face; alas still planning to make my movie, I know my movie inside and out. It was changed enough maybe to not be plageuarism, but it just about was, and wow... made me sick for a week, but God will give them fruits for their lack of labor and choice to utilize my script and not tell me.... Don't trust people. The end. My movie will be awesome.....
