Friday 12th October 2018 3 Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri (cert 15, 115 mins) Award-winning actress Frances McDormand (Fargo) delivers a stunningly powerful performance in this stylish black comedy-drama that has been hailed as one of the year’s best films.
A murdered girl’s defiant mother Mildred Hayes (McDormand) rents three ancient billboards and boldly paints them with a controversial message denouncing the town’s revered chief of police Sheriff Willoughby (Woody Harrelson). This ignites a furious battle with Willoughby’s deputy – a volatile, racist cop, Officer Dixon (Sam Rockwell). Directed by Martin McDonagh.
