A new trailer forThree BillboardsfromFox Searchlightputs likely Oscar contender Frances McDormand front - and - middle . frame by a touching scene of McDormand talking to a deer she does n’t quite want to conceive is her reincarnated daughter , the clip sell the movie as a gritty , striking narration of a solitary woman going to warfare against an detached organization . The passive tone of the framing scenes is contrasted against shots of McDormand look like she ’s ready to take someone down , and even at one point inflicting furiousness on high school Thomas Kyd . The bluesy melodious accompaniment drives home the sense of a rural revenge narration steeped in a sense of frustration about the failures of the system .
The fresh lagger is leaner and more tense thanan earlierThree Billboardstrailer that sold the movie as more of a crazy black clowning in the Coen brother vein . Considering the Oscar bombination around McDormand ’s functioning , it ’s perhaps no surprise that the fresh laggard focalize in more on her and tries to make the picture look more straight - forwardly spectacular and Oscar - baity . However , given author - director Martin McDonagh ’s retiring work , it ’s probable thatThree Billboardsis much more complex and interesting in term of tone than anything that a single dawdler could perchance capsule .
In hisbreakout filmIn Bruges , starring Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson as a dyad ofcool hitmen , McDonagh demonstrated a unequalled aesthesia and pernicious grasp of persona that made the film much more riveting than its surface - level elements might have advise . The off - beat tone ofIn Brugesmade it somewhat difficult to sell and the picture ended up beingvery differentfrom the trailer . So whateverThree Billboardsappears to be from its selling , you could be fairly certain that with McDonagh at the helm it will end up having unexpected shading , and will go deeper into graphic symbol than your median rural revenge flick .
