There is not the fact, but Possibility Nothing we know can be called a fact

about movies, and low ratings

Seeing the last debate at the end reminded many people, including me, I saw the lawyer finally say: The prosecution's argument is that the deceased is an epilepsy patient is a fact, a mental patient is a fact, what is a fact, everyone disagrees Believe that she has the possibility of being possessed by demons? ? ? Do you believe in the possibility of miracles? ? ? Do you believe that it is because she took the epilepsy drug that affected her willpower and caused the possibility of the failure of the exorcism ritual? ? ? (probably recap)

Obviously, in the end, the jury and even the judge, like us, believe that the possibility is far more convincing than the fact , we are so ignorant because of our abilities, but we should at least admit our ignorance

The layers conveyed by the film deserve high marks, while the details are problematic.

When the film expounds this dimension of ignorance that human beings have not yet reached or will never be able to achieve, I think it stands far from enough height. The film attempts to use the myths, rules, and religions that humans know and even write to comprehensively. Describing the horrific unknowns we face takes away the credibility of the whole unknown, I'm not denying religion or disrespecting beliefs, but we know in our hearts the stories of ghosts and gods, rules, religions come from ourselves, even "ghosts" ” and “God” are still named and written in human language, just like why the gods in the east are called Tathagata Buddha and the gods in the west are called Jesus

Say a few specific bugs:

1. In the face of the existence of this communication method in a completely different dimension from ours, how can we be sure that we can use the Bible to expel it through the priest, and it is very effective, even if it is scientific research, 100 times of attempts may not get an effective one? result

2. I am particularly puzzled that the "devil" actually responded to the name named after our language, and it is also related to the story recorded in the Bible. We have a book that records the "unknown thing" of a dimension that we cannot reach. Life stories, character traits, and even the way of expulsion are unconvincing, pulling a film that explores how to "judgment the unknown" within human capabilities to a common supernatural film

Of course, because the movie is based on real events, there are plot constraints, but I think privately, maybe we can try to not let the "unknown" in the movie clips respond to our attempts, such as exorcism and drugs. Ineffective, let alone let the "unknown" say its own name that is exactly the same as the Bible, and don't try to use what we know to speculate about what happened to the girl

Instead, it tells everyone that medical treatment may be a possibility of salvation, exorcism may be a possibility of salvation, and there are even various possibilities of salvation. The dimension we have can never answer this possibility, and even more so. don't mention judge it

The Exorcism of Emily Rose quotes

  • Ethan Thomas: So, the judge thinks we should offer your client a new plea agreement. Apparently she thinks the community would be better served without this trial.

    Erin Bruner: How do you feel about it, personally?

    Ethan Thomas: My job is to represent the interest of the people, make an effort to be objective.

    Erin Bruner: Hm. I ask because I know you're a churchgoer. Now you're sent to prosecute a man of God.

    Ethan Thomas: Your priest broke the law and a young girl is dead. If he's a man of God, then personally I think he's even more subject to the laws of moral behavior and punishment. If it were up to me he'd get no deal at all.

    Erin Bruner: What about forgiveness and compassion? Isn't that part of your creed or does that just get in the way of your work?

    Ethan Thomas: If you have compassion for your client, counselor, you'll persuade him to accept this: Charges reduced to reckless endangerment, 12 months in a county jail, reducible to 6 plus probation if he can stay out of trouble. Somehow I expect he can manage that, but please understand me... if he refuses I will seek the maximum.

  • Emily Rose: I choose to stay.
