Award season is officially over. And perhaps no performance this year felt more raw and resonant than Frances Mcdormand’s take on the anti heroine Mildred Hayes. A woman who has had enough with the failure of the Ebbing police department to find the man responsible for raping and murdering her daughter. Rage is destroying her life, but it’s also liberating in a way that feels amazingly cathartic. But to fully understand the message of the film, we have to take a close look at Sam Rockwell’s Jason Dixon, as well. He’s a violent, intolerant alcoholic who is said to have tortured a black man in his custody. While Mildred rents three billboards leading out of Ebbing to remind the town of the cops’ incompetence, Dixon tries to get her and the billboard company to remove the signs. It’s the actions and evolution of these two characters, as well as the merging of their paths that delivers an important message about redemption and damnation.

I disagree with one point you made, which is that her hatred was so much that she was ready to kill a complete stranger at the end of the movie. It wasn't out of hatred that she wanted to kill the rapist. It was out of justice.
@@arjunbhoomraddi2235 For the false comfort of vigilante justice. To claim that killing a potential rapist is justified when he made a claim while drinking would be a slap in the face of justice.
I honestly thought this movie was gonna be alright
but I walked out amazed on how great it actually was
became a really memorable experience
Jesus christ, never clicked on something faster. I love Three Billboards, probably one of the best movies I have ever seen.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Jordan Peele and Get Out, but Martin McDonagh was robbed of Best Original Screenplay
How do you keep churning such incredible videos out so fast!?
full-time job I guess.
Thanks for this short but very on point review :).
Now I can just send my friends here, when they ask me what do I think about this film.
Great analysis, this was absolutely my favourite film of the year
Nice analysis of a loaded and difficult film. I think you hit on something really powerful when you talk about the ambiguity of the film. There's been a lot of criticism surrounding the films seeming acceptance of Dixon, the racist cop, but I don't think the film is trying to make any definitive moral statements on any of these people. All of the characters are navigating through the life the ways they know how, and McDonagh is quick to note all of their flaws and misgivings. The end of the film, as the title of your video suggests, is both a little bit redemptive and a little bit damning, but it isn't totally either of those things. Anyway, good stuff. Cool to see you tackling so many of the recent awards contenders.
When you look at Martin McDonagh's work on both film and theatre, it's pretty obvious that he doesn't really judge his characters as much as he just shows them as they are completely honestly and make the plot go the course that would naturally fit where these characters would take themselves on, which is determined by the given circumstances. The only definitive thing McDonagh says through his work is probably that people are really fucked up and the world is really, really fucked and it's kinda hilarious because of this.
I felt the sense of unknown at the end was the cherry on top for this film.
Loved it!
Should have won Best Picture...
blade runner 2049 was better
It's a great movie about revenge and forgiveness. This is a good channel. Damn good stuff, sir.
Another amazing movie and great video, good job
Muy buen análisis y conclusiones de una gran película!.... mucho éxito !
i always found it funny how it took place in missouri but it was filmed in north carolina
guess they didn't think the ozarks were dramatic enough compared to the smokies and black mountains
They don't film in the ozarks because of taxes i think
It's a great movie and I loved it. I follow this filmmaker to watch his every movie after exploring his "In Bruges".
Phenomenal film, absolute masterpiece of a film
Where my Missouri brothers and sisters at?
2 years late, but amazing video!
Thanks! Never too late :)
Maybe turn down the music a bit?
Can you do the shape of water because I love that film and the director
I hate the shape of water. I like three billboards outside ebbing Missouri. This movie should win Oscar but every year academy didn't give award that golden globe award winning movies
What is the name of the opera song?
It's called "Last Rose of Summer" by Renée Fleming
Can you do crimson peak because for me it’s underrated
I don't understand the comment about Michael Brown. Brown was not the victim of police brutality nor of racism. He had violently assaulted a police officer and had attempted to take his sidearm. As the officer attempted to halt Brown and apprehend him, Brown turned and came at the officer again. Having already proven to the officer that he was no match for Brown physically (he only barely managed to retain his sidearm), the officer had no choice but to shoot. (In the law of self-defense, "unarmed" does not equal "not a lethal threat." Anyone who doesn't understand why it was a "good shoot" doesn't understand the law of self-defense in this country. Complicating the issue, this was not a civilian self-defense situation, this was a police-involved situation. Police can't allow a violent perpetrator to just walk away - something the civilian defender MUST do once the violence stops and the assailant disengages - cops have a duty to attempt to make an arrest.)
Thought it was a cohen film
"People of color" just say black people or African Americans.
Love the vids btw
Your narration is very poor...
