Six demons Emili Rose
Not known to a wide range of cinema-goers the American director and a script writer Scott Дерриксон («Risen from a hell 5: the Hell») has shot a film «Six demons Emili Rose» («The Exorcism of Emily Rose») which rather has been let out recently in Russia on licence DVD by company "Video service".
In an advertising campaign in the foreign and Russian mass-media, this tape previous an exit in hire, it was positioned as a film of horrors in the spirit of legendary «Expelling devil» William Fridkina, based on real events (the reference the documentary book of anthropologist Felisitas Gudman «Exile of a devil from Anneliz Michael» has served). Contrary to expectations of fans to tickle to itself nerves, «Six demons Emili Rose» is, mainly, a judicial drama, instead of a film of horrors.
Naturally, in a picture there are some terrible scenes, but they have exclusively auxiliary character for the best understanding of court occurring in a hall. Especially it would be desirable to note magnificent authentic game of the actors, played leading roles – Лоры Линни («the Mysterious river», «Кинси», "Person-moth"), Wilkinson's Volumes («the Batman: the Beginning», «the Phantom and Darkness», «Eternal light of pure reason») and Dzhennifer Carpenter («White chucks»).
Mostly film action occurs in court where case accused of unintentional murder of the young girl of the parish priest of father Moore (Volume Wilkinson) is considered. In brief about background. Emili Rose (Dzhennifer Carpenter), grown in very religious family, has entered the university and began to live in a student's hostel. After the lapse of some time of its steel to torment night nightmares and terrible visions, it has absolutely ceased to eat and at it attacks with causing to themselves of physical injuries have begun. As treatment of the girl by medical preparations against an epilepsy has not led to simplification of its sufferings, parents have addressed for the help to the priest who has understood, that Эмили is afflicted with demons. From blessing of a diocese it has spent a ceremony of exile of a devil from Эмили, however its exhausted organism has not sustained tortures, and she has died.
Thus, father Moore also has appeared on a dock. The church, not wished to involve in religious scandal, has employed submitting the big hopes and extremely arrogant lawyer Erin Brjuner (Лора Линни) for protection of the priest. Was offered to "hush up" business to make a compromise – the respondent recognises the fault and to it considerably reduce term of stay in prison. Nevertheless, father Moore and its lawyer refuse the transaction – the first in hope to make property of the public true history Emili Rose, and the second – on purpose to win process and to become the partner of legal firm. In conversations with the priest at Эрин its outlook gradually varies – being the agnostic (as she of names) she starts to trust, even if not in the God and demons, in father Moore and its belief. That is characteristic, as an accuser on court Itan Thomas (Campbell Skott), deeply believing person, the respectable parishioner who, defending the "medical" version of an event (Эмили it was mentally sick also it it was necessary to treat instead of to cause the priest), rejects thereby the "spiritual" party, existence of the God and demons acts.
Eventually, Эрин, risking to lose a place in the lawyer office, asks to pledge a word to father Moore so that it has read the agonal letter Эмили confirming its correctness. The decision of jurymen ambiguously and to learn it, you need to look this not ordinary, strong and optimistical film about Belief and Clarification. Some words about the release. Quality of a film antithetically it DVD to the form – "Video service" has deprived us of an English sound track and additional materials. Causes a question and presented «the director's version» tapes which at us lasts 115 minutes, and in the USA – 121 minute.
