> the real “Amanda Knox saga” would make for a much more interesting movie: what is it like to have your roomate murdered, your life destroyed, and your identity robbed from you by the global tabloid press? That’s the real Amanda Knox story.

I might be confused but isn't that the exact plot of the movie she is referencing?



Apart from the detail where the real Knox is innocent and the movie Knotnox conspired with the killer, as the article explains.


Fair enough, though the main impression I got from this article was that she does not wish to be associated with these kinds of movies at all, so I'm not sure if (another) movie about "the real Amanda Knox story" is really the right take away from the article.


The real Knox was acquitted and found not guilty. That’s different from being innocent.


She was explicitly declared innocent by the court system, not merely "not guilty".


100% wrong. From Wikipedia:

"On 27 March 2015, Italy's highest court, the Court of Cassation, ruled that Knox and Sollecito were innocent of murder, thereby definitively ending the case. Rather than merely declaring that there were errors in the earlier court cases or that there was insufficient evidence to convict, the court ruled that Knox and Sollecito had not committed the murder and were innocent of those charges..."

No, the Italian Supreme court definitively acquitted them and explicitly ruled that they were innocent. I'm sure that doesn't change your viewpoint on anything though.
