Willoughby- “Because through love comes calm, and through calm comes thought. And you need thought to detect stuff sometimes, Jason. It's kinda all you need. You don't even need a gun. And you definitely don't need hate. Hate never solved nothing, but calm did. And thought did. Try it. Try it just for a change.”
I BOW DOWN TO FRANCES McDORMAND SUPREMACY!!
This film is so smart at being able to keep you at the edge of your seat from simple things that they plug into the film. Heartbreaking and tense situations in the first half of the film come back in some shape or form that leave you questioning what is going to happen. There was genuinely no predicting what the characters were going to do and how they would react to certain events.
This is the best I've seen from Frances McDormand (haven't watched Nomadland yet), which isn't new because it's McDormand. She delivered a performance that won her an Oscar for the second time then. You can feel her pain and hate, but also see a softer side to her character which makes you have sympathy for the old woman.
Francis McDormand, Woody Harrelson, Sam Rockwell, and Peter Dinklage.....well, what can you expect? They just deliver every second of the way. And the strong cast supports each other the whole way. Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri casts a light on individuals, society, crime and its organic relationship with social organizations.
I really loved the way this movie ended. Not everyone gets justice, it's the universal truth. The cinematography in this film allows the actors to take advantage of facial expression. There's a scene relatively early in the film that is mostly sitting and staring but the actors have such convincing movements and gestures, it goes to a point where you don't need dialogue to tell what they are feeling and what they are thinking about.
The script was the real show stealer here. The dialogue is so rich and masterful, it keeps you locked from start till finish. What else can I say, I loved it every second of it.
My Rating- 8/10
