The movie Joseph Smith: The Prophet of the Restoration was the first full-length motion picture the Church released on the Internet. The movie is about Joseph Smith, the founding prophet of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Here are all the ways you can watch the movie:
- Netflix
- Hulu
- Amazon Instant Video
- Roku Mormon Channel
- MormonChannel.org (you can watch or download it free)
- Mormon Channel on YouTube
- LDS.org media library
- Gospel Library mobile app
- Doctrine & Covenants and Church History Visual Resource DVD. This set includes 4 other movies, including Legacy and Only a Stonecutter. (When the DVD set was first released, it contained the original version of the Joseph Smith movie as it was released in 2005 in the Joseph Smith Building. The movie was later revised to make it more easily understood by a wider audience. All the online versions of the movie are this newer version, as are later versions of the DVD set. Learn more about the revised version of the movie.)
I encourage you to watch family-friendly movies like this on Netflix, Hulu, and Roku because the more you watch them, the more likely it is that these companies will continue to carry such movies.
Here’s a trailer to the movie:

I never fail to be moved by this movie. The spirit of sacrifice and fidelity are evident in every frame. This is a fitting testament to the caliber of the man I am so pleased to call God’s first prophet of the last dispensation of the earth.
