‘The Mormons’ on PBS takes aim at stereotypes
Posted by Chris on January 15th, 2007
Award-winning filmmaker Helen Whitney has one over-arching goal for her four-hour production “The Mormons,” which airs this spring on PBS.
“I hope that most of the stereotypes — ideally, all of them — will be blown away,” she told the Deseret Morning News on Saturday. “Because so many of them are just based on ignorance. Ignorance about Mormon history, ignorance about Mormon theology. Ignorance.”
The two-part, four-hour documentary, a presentation of both “American Experience” and “Frontline” — their first co-production — is to air nationally on April 30 and May 1.
