Negative Positive
Title: biased on a true story
Review: Perhaps there is some truth hidden here among the lies. This movie is a prime example of revisionist history; it trivializes the hard facts of the case and imposes a strong bias in favor of the supernatural. Throughout the film, the priest explains that his only wish is for Emily's story to be told; too bad the filmmakers didn't share his conviction. The real Emily Rose, a young Bavarian woman named Anneliese Michel, was subjected to 67 exorcism rituals over a period several months! She eventually starved to death, under the care of her parents and priests who were subsequently found guilty of negligent homicide. SeeRequiemfor a more objective dramatization.
