Mommy I Didn't Do It

After finishing law school, Ellen Plainview is looking forward to spending some much needed time with her seventeen-year-old daughter, Julie. But when Julie is charged with the murder of a teacher she was rumored to be having an affair with, Ellen stops at nothing to clear her daughter's name, even when all the evidence seems to point to Julie’s guilt.

Directed by Richard Gabai, Mommy I Didn't Do It leans on a strong ensemble — Danica McKellar, Paige Searcy, Jonathan Bennett — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about thriller titles of 2017.
