Martin McDonagh‘s Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017) movie trailer stars Peter Dinklage, Woody Harrelson, Abbie Cornish, Frances McDormand, and Sam Rockwell. Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri‘s plot synopsis: “A frustrated and grieving mother (Frances McDormand) antagonizes her local police force (including Woody Harrelson and Sam Rockwell) to call attention to the lack of progress in the search for her daughter’s killer, in the latest from dark-humour master Martin McDonagh.

Strong, brave, fed up with bullshit, and desperate for justice, Mildred Hayes might be 2017’s Woman of the Year. After months have passed without an arrest in her daughter’s murder, Mildred (Academy Award winner Frances McDormand) makes a bold move, postering three signs leading into her town with a controversial message directed at William Willoughby (Oscar nominee Woody Harrelson), the town’s revered chief of police. When his second-in-command, Officer Dixon (Sam Rockwell) — an immature mother’s boy with a penchant for violence — gets involved, the battle between Mildred and Ebbing’s law enforcement escalates.”

I actually laughed out loud towards the end of this trailer. It was that funny. The laughs and the drama build and build in a very effective way during this trailer. Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri looks like it will be one of the funniest films of the year.

Once a few people in Ebbing, Missouri let their aggression out, like Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, it seems to have a cascading effect throughout the town. Then people seem to go off the deep end with it, committing crimes in full view of the law.

More on the underbelly of Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri:

On its surface, Three Billboards is a film about grief, forgiveness, anger, and resilience. Yet McDonagh layers in myriad observational moments about racism, war, sexism, and a deeply divided society, all captured in this fictional Missouri town. Ever present is a low-simmering tension that occasionally bursts into violence but always in the service of releasing emotion that a character is unable to articulate.

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri also stars Brendan Sexton III, Lucas Hedges, Željko Ivanek, Caleb Landry Jones, Clarke Peters, Samara Weaving, and John Hawkes.
