The Island of Strang(e)
“The Island of Strang(e)” is a historical documentary about Beaver Island, Michigan. In the 1850s, Beaver Island was the location of America's only legal monarchy. The self-proclaimed king, James Jesse Strang, settles his group of Mormon followers on Beaver Island in order to escape the harassment bestowed upon the Mormons--however, Strang's reign on Beaver Island is anything but typical. The story of King James Strang is one that includes greed, deception, passionate love, polygamy, piracy, and, of course, murder.

Reviews
It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Dreadfully Boring
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
