Injunction Against The Film The Profit
During the civil suit against the Church of Scientology brought by McPherson's family members, an injunction was sought and obtained to keep the Scientology-critical film The Profit from being shown to avoid prejudicing the jury pool against Scientology. A group of Scientology critics led by Bob Minton named the Lisa McPherson trust after her. Bob Minton later became a witness for the Church of Scientology, confessing to perjury regarding a financial transaction in the wrongful death lawsuit.

Famous quotes containing the word film:
“If you want to tell the untold stories, if you want to give voice to the voiceless, you’ve got to find a language. Which goes for film as well as prose, for documentary as well as autobiography. Use the wrong language, and you’re dumb and blind.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1948)
