First Look At West Memphis Three Movie

Here's a dramatic first look at Reese Witherspoon and Colin Firth starring in the film Devil's Knot, based on reporter Mara Leveritt's book about the West Memphis Three.

The book-turned-movie follows the story of the savage murders of three eight-year-old boys that sparked a controversial trial of three teenagers accused of killing the kids as part of a satanic ritual in Arkansas back in 1993.
