But as the story progresses, we learn that she had an argument with her late daughter (which implies Mildred feels especially guilty about her daughter’s death) and she also does something that makes us question whether she should be considered a “good” person or not.

At very first glance, she reminded me of a typical Pam Grier type heroine from films like Coffy since she has a heroic attitude and cool dialogue. As I said, she lost her daughter and will do anything to find those responsible. Mildred: She’s the lead female character. Since this is a character-driven type of film, I’d like to mention three interesting characters in order to elaborate what makes this film so interesting. Although the film doesn’t have supernatural elements or over-the-top WTF moments, they both share the same types of weird character behavior, relationships, evolution of lives, a murder case that serves more as a Macguffin than the actual story and a nice small town that is hiding something terrifying. That show in question is the original run of Twin Peaks. I previously implied that the film reminds me of a TV show I like. And, as the story progresses, it becomes less about the murder case and more about the people in town and how they change throughout the course of the film. It’s about things that don’t look like what they seem. This embarrasses the police officers of the town, especially Chief Willoughby (Woody Harrelson) but is just the beginning of an interesting saga. She later rents three billboards that has this sequential text as a protest:

The story revolves around Mildred Hayes (Frances McDormand), a mother whose daughter was raped and murdered. To my surprise, it’s actually better than I expected and it reminded me of a particular TV show that I enjoy. I deliberately didn’t watch any trailers or clips from the movie prior to the screening since I wanted to experience it without prejudice. So there was no better way to clear my curiosity than to watch it in a theater (an art-house theater, to be more specific) with my friends. I became interested in the movie since it had an unusually long title and several people I know said that it’s a good film. It’s called “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri”. However, there’s one film that recently grabbed my attention. It’s because I often have no idea what I should go see these days. It’s not that I’m stuck in the past or something like that. As can be seen from most of my reviews on FC, I usually tend to focus on older films instead of recent releases.
