Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Exorcism of Emily Rose is a 2005 horror/drama film directed by Scott Derrickson that is loosely based on a Roman Catholic Church exorcism in 1976, performed on Anneliese Michel. It concerns the story of Emily Rose (Jennifer Carpenter), a 19-year-old college student who suffers problems of a sufficiently ill-defined nature, that medicine and later an actual exorcism fail to cure. The movie refuses to make an explicit statement on whether the problems are psychotic or demonic, and whether the medicine and exorcism are helping or interfering with one another. Her questions unanswered, Emily eventually dies from self-injury and malnutrition.The story is told in flashbacks after Father Richard Moore (Tom Wilkinson), the priest who performed the exorcism and oversaw Emily's care, is arrested on charges of negligent homicide. The flashbacks are told from various perspectives, each providing a spiritual or medical reason for her condition and death. Father Moore is represented by an agnostic attorney, Erin Brunner (Laura Linney), and is prosecuted by a churchgoing Methodist, Ethan Thomas (Campbell Scott). Over the course of the trial, the jury and audience is asked to consider the possibility that Emily may have been possessed, and Erin is forced to confront her own beliefs regarding spirituality and morality.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

As the Good Book Says... | |
| The Exorcism of Emily Rose / int_2439b588 | comment |
As the Good Book Says...: The Bible, especially the Gospels and Acts, is quoted several times during the exorcism scene, and Emily's epitaph is a verse from Philippians. | |

Hollywood Law: With the majority of examples explained here, the general sum up is that the film gets a lot right, with a few obvious missteps: While the lawyers often do object at correct times, the way they phrase their objections is often incorrect (such as Thomas objecting to "silliness" when "irrelevance" would have been the correct way to do so).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Christianity Is Catholic | |
| The Exorcism of Emily Rose / int_a8a5e4ed | comment |
Christianity is Catholic: Downplayed in that the prosecuting attorney is a devout Methodist, but the religious aspect of the story is portrayed from the perspective of Father Moore and Emily Rose, both devoutly Catholic, and makes strong use of Catholic imagery and theology. | |

Hollywood Exorcism: As usual the exorcism is dramatized. However, the prosecution's point of view is much less so, viewing it as a mentally unwell woman essentially being tortured. | |
