In June 2002, Elizabeth Ann Smart (Alana Boden) was a 14-year-old girl when she was abducted from her Salt Lake City home by religious fanatic Brian David Mitchell (Skeet Ulrich). He brought her to a hilly encampment where, with his twisted accomplice Wanda Barzee (Deirdre Lovejoy), he held Elizabeth captive. She was starved, drugged, raped and subjected to bizarre religious rituals until, nine months later, she enabled her own rescue. Written by AnonymousB
Some will think this tale is too tall to be believed. I say, please compare it to all others. How rare is it that a victim survives such an assault? This poor girl's parents...my goodness, to feel so powerless against evil of this magnitude. In spite of the parents being such good, giving people... This poor little girl had her life stolen from her, and she's risked ridicule and scorn by actively working to create in society a higher level of alertness so it can better-protect other children.
As a movie, a lot was left to be desired. Acting, fit and finished were by far no cinematic masterpieces on par with Casino or Scarface or Gone With The Wind. But, this is a *True *Story!!! Who cares about the presentation, the acting, the absolute "fit and finish"? This is a devastating yet touching story brought to the public eye with great help from the survivor of a wicked tragedy. If this were a street race, this is the old car that wins races slowly but surely. Because it's not intended to entertain, it's intended to educate and broaden understandings. Don't break-out the pints and nuts and/or popcorn in preparation for entertainment. Open your minds as you would while watching any documentary-based movie. And learn a lesson in human nature in some people living in the US of A.
