Three Billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017)
Country: GB/US
Technical: col/2.35:1 115m
Director: Martin McDonagh
Cast: Frances McDormand, Woody Harrelson, Sam Rockwell, Abbie Cornish
Synopsis:
A bereaved mother works off her frustration over the lack of progress in the hunt for her daughter's killers by renting the billboards outside her home and using them to hold the police to account.
Review:
A compelling and deftly arranged drama that consistently wrong-foots our expectations and provides shifting perceptions on a none too savoury bunch of characters. As before with the film-maker's, and his brother's, work, generosity towards his subjects goes hand in hand with some pretty profane dialogue.
