The Exorcism of Emily Rose
| Lambert M. Surhone
| High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Exorcism of Emily Rose is a 2005 horror/courtroom drama film directed by Scott Derrickson. It is generally accepted that the film is loosely based on the story of Anneliese Michel, which is stated at the end credits. However it bears little resemblance to the case of Anneliese Michel. It portrays a fictional, previously non-believing this movie defense lawyer's overwhelmingly private experiences, that lead her to sharing the defendants belief in spiritual warfare and a Christian God. The movie, which largely takes place in a courtroom, depicts the trial of Emily's parish priest, who performed the exorcism, and who was accused by the state of negligent homicide. The movie, although mostly trial-based, shows flashbacks of the events leading up to Emily Rose's exorcism, and ultimately, her death.
