Haven't seen this movie, and probably won't, either. There is a very interesting book out there, however, that covers this massacre in an intriguing way. Star Rover, written by Jack London, is a must-read for London fans and history buffs. Part of this tale is told through the eyes of a young boy who is part of the wagon train stranded in Utah. The massacre is chilling, and the historical details are memorable.
