The Exorcism of Emily Rose

CrimeDramaHorrorThriller122 min

After teenager Emily Rose dies following an exorcism, defense attorney Erin Bruner takes on the priest accused of negligent homicide. Laura Linney is Erin, a self-described agnostic whose courtroom strategy keeps colliding with Father Moore’s account of possession; Tom Wilkinson gives Moore the calm certainty of a man asking a jury to consider the supernatural. As testimony revisits Emily’s final days and the medical explanations around her condition, the case becomes a clash between church doctrine, criminal law, and what can be proved in court.
