Selah Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Emily Rose is also based on a true story...ever heard of Anneleise Michel? That said, I love that movie. I also recommend The Song of Bernadette. Awesome, simply awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihil Obstat Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 [quote name='Proud2BCatholic139' post='1616075' date='Aug 2 2008, 06:09 PM']What most people do not know, that excorsism happen in real life. Yeah, it is a movie for Catholics or anyone to see, because if we do not acknowledge that these things happen, we are in trouble. A lot of priests on EWTN recommended Excorsism of Emily Rose. I bought the movie, and the lady I live with saw it, and she freaked out, screamed and made me throw it away. She was so mad, that she was about to sprinkle Holy Water on it. Yet, she has movies about witchcraft? Excorsisms and demons are serious stuff and people need to know about them.[/quote] Pshh, of course I knew it happened in real life! I also happen to know that all the differences are superficial. Even the levitating happened, as I understand it (though not the spider walk). I did see Exorcism of Emily Rose... it was ok. I was looking for a bit more of a horror than a court room drama though. Why did the woman you live with hate it so much? I didn't notice any anti-theist themes in it... What is the general consensus about Rosemary's Baby anyway? I know we talked about it a while back somewhere else, but I can't recall. I want to see it though.

Guest mikemlek Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Romero The Nativity Story Exorcism of Emily Rose Stigmata The Order Da Vinci Code (yeah, I know...) I've been realizing that most entertaining films concerning Catholicism are pretty anti-Catholic, or at least very unorthodox, in rhetoric.

MC IMaGiNaZUN Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 This is in no particular order... [b]Bella[/b] (you guys need to see this one, it is amazing film.) [b]the Passion of Bernadette[/b] (she comes across as historically accurate according to the book I read by Fr. Rene Laurentin) [b]Changing Lanes[/b] This movie won an award by some Catholic association out on the west coast, it deals heavily with the theme of reconciliation [b]Signs[/b] (well it isn't "Catholic" specifically but it has so many Christian themes that you would not expect) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesus_lol Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 personally i liked "Nuns On the Run", a british comedy starring Eric Idle(monty python) and Robbie Coltrane. basically two small time gangsters trying to get out of crime end up being chased by the mob, and they hide in a Convent(?) posing as Nuns. hilarity ensues. also, technically "the exorcist" is a catholic film.
