Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

Friday, 10 September 2021 by craig

2017; 1 h 56 m; R for violence, language throughout, and some sexual references

After months have passed without a culprit in her daughter’s murder case, Mildred Hayes (Academy Award winner Frances McDormand) makes a bold move by painting a controversial message directed at William Willoughby (Academy Award nominee Woody Harrelson), the town’s revered chief of police, on three signs leading into her town. When Willoughby’s second-in-command Officer Dixon (Academy Award winner Sam Rockwell), an immature mother’s boy with a penchant for violence, gets involved, the battle between Mildred and Ebbing’s law enforcement is only exacerbated.

The 1pm screening will be captioned.
