This is a movie that defies categorization - which is exactly what you would expect from writer/director McDonagh. At one point, she attacks the town dentist. As the trailer illustrates, Mildred is a ball of fury that can't be contained. Despite its heavy subject matter, Three Billboards has a comedic edge. Moviegoers also shouldn't head to the theater expecting to see a true-crime-style mystery. While the film's subject matter sadly feels like it could be ripped from the headlines, Three Billboards is thankfully the stuff of fiction. And the people of Ebbing are not happy about the stir that Mildred is causing. In order, the billboards say: "Still No Arrests?" "How Come, Chief Willoughby?" "Raped While Dying."Īs soon as the billboards go up, they begin drawing attention not only from the people in town, but from the local media, as well. They become Mildred's inspiration to keep her daughter's death in the mind of the police and her neighbors. Three derelict billboards sit on the edge of the town of Ebbing at the start of the film.
Without giving too much away, here's what you need to know about the hottest award season movie of the year.

The dramatic comedy starring Frances McDormand nabbed six Golden Globe nominations on Dec. McDormand’s performance does have its fair share of virtuosic profanities, but as you’ll see in this trailer for the film, where she plays a grieving mother who puts up controversial billboards meant to prod the police into catching her daughter’s killer, there’s a somewhat softer side to the character, too … and she’ll let it out, as long as she thinks no one is watching.One movie with a strange title has emerged as one of the top Oscar contenders: Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. Today, Vulture will add to the din with an online exclusive trailer for Three Billboards, but this one favors the film’s more contemplative side. Then there were the rave reviews out of the Venice Film Festival last week, where many pundits predicted Oscar attention for McDormand, co-star Sam Rockwell, and writer-director Martin McDonagh. First, there was that incredible, indelible first trailer, where Frances McDormand unleashed an expletive-fueled tirade on just about any character actor unwise enough to cross her.
