Second fIlm of Choice at The Plaza Dorchester Tonight - Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. After her daughter is raped and murdered and there have been no suspects arrested Mildred Hayes (Frances McDormand) takes the bold step of renting three billboards and publicly asking the police chief why! This film should have been depressing given the subject matter, and in parts it was sad, poignant and moving, but it was also a very funny film. This was due largely to Frances McDormand, who is very skilled in her craft, Woody Harrelson who brings good leadership and great compassion to the role of the Police Chief and Sam Rockwell who produced an amazing piece of acting to give us the character of Jason Dixon, a man who should never have graduated the Police Academy. I enjoyed this from the very moment it began until the very moment it finished and I cannot recommend it enough to anyone who wants to see some good film making, undertaken by good actors, performing a good story.
