Dorothy Mills is a psychological thriller movie from 2008, directed by Agnès Merlet, that tells the story of a young girl, Dorothy Mills (Jenn Murray), who lives in a small Irish town and starts showing bizarre and violent behavior after a tragic incident of a baby drowning. The movie begins with Jane Morton (Carice van Houten), a clinical psychiatrist who has been assigned to investigate the case of Dorothy Mills, who is being accused of attempting to murder a baby. Jane is a person who wants to make use of her skills as a doctor, and she is convinced that there is a psychological explanation for Dorothy's behavior. However, when confronted with the locals and their distrust for outsiders, Jane begins to question her own sanity.

As Jane interacts with Dorothy and the people of the small town, she starts to realize that there are more mysteries surrounding the case of Dorothy Mills than she had initially thought. Jane is confronted with the superstitions of the locals, who believe that Dorothy is possessed by a demon, and the unexpected twists and turns of the investigation keep Jane completely in suspense.

Jenn Murray delivers a brilliant performance as the disturbed and disturbed child. Her face looks innocent and fragile, yet her eyes are filled with terror and madness, making it difficult to determine whether Dorothy is a victim of psychological trauma or a malicious force.

Carice van Houten's performance as Jane Morton is equally commendable. Jane is a professional, who is tough and determined, but also vulnerable and sensitive, which van Houten portrays well. Her skepticism in the beginning towards the locals' superstitions is gradually replaced by confusion and fear as she becomes more and more involved with Dorothy's case.

David Wilmot's portrayal of Sean O'Donnell, the local police inspector who is convinced that Dorothy is guilty of attempting to murder the baby, is convincing and intimidating. At times, he appears to be cruel and heartless towards the accused girl, but his emotions are also stirred up due to the community's strong belief in Dorothy's demonic possession.

Although Dorothy Mills is a supernatural-oriented movie, the story doesn't rely heavily on cheap scares or special effects. Instead, it uses psychological intensity and unpredictability to create terror and suspense. The cinematography effectively captures the eerie feeling of a small town that has something evil lurking within it.

Overall, Dorothy Mills is a well-crafted movie that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats with its twists, turns, and mysteries. The performances of the cast are superb, and the story is compelling and highly suspenseful. If you enjoy psychological thrillers, this movie is definitely worth your time.

Dorothy Mills is a 2009 drama with a runtime of 1 hour and 42 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 6.0.
