Today we scored a look at a few new stills from the Weinstein Company's Dorothy Mills, which we're dying to see here at Bloody-Disgusting (please give us a release date!). In Agnès Merlet's film, Jane Morton, a psychiatrist in mourning after the accidental death of her son, is assigned the case of Dorothy Mills, a 15-year-old girl from a small Irish island, accused of attempting to murder a baby in her charge. Read on for the new stills.
Arriving at the village, Jane discovers a small, frightened community, troubled by mysterious events and haunted by a terrible shared secret and hostile to outsiders. Deeply religious, and believed by the villagers to possess supernatural powers, the terrified Dorothy swears she never touched the child. Moved by the girl's fragile, vulnerable state, Jane makes a diagnosis of multiple personality disorder, until the day that Dorothy speaks to her with the voice of her dead son. Jane is forced to admit that the girl indeed possesses powers that exist beyond the realm of psychiatry - dangerous powers that will plunge the village community into a violent collective psychosis.
This seems to have a very classic look to it. It could simply be the setting of the "small Irish village," but the image I'm getting from these pictures brings to mind movies like The Changeling, Burnt Offerings, Ghost Story, and such. It certainly has my curiosity.
