À propos de ce film

Award-winning actress Frances McDormand (Fargo) delivers a stunningly powerful performance in this darkly comic drama that has been hailed as one of the year’s best films. A murdered girl’s defiant mother (McDormand) boldly paints three local signs with a controversial message, igniting a furious battle with a volatile cop (Sam Rockwell) and the town’s revered chief of police (Woody Harrelson).

Notes et avis

Cinematic brilliance. It is one of those films that I had no idea what it was about going into it, and yet at the end was taken aback that the story also didn't go where I assumed it would. Story aside, the acting is phenomenal and I completely understand how this film overtook the academy awards. The actors have created such believable and yet chaotic characters that you question why you have so much feeling towards them considering their actions. This film is humanity and is 100% worth the watch.

Unusual and interesting movie, it also reminded me of Coen brothers work. It didn't wrap up neatly, and ended up being about something other than I thought it would be, which I think was the whole point! Wonderful cast performance and I loved Willoughby's letters!

So powerful, the characters are beautifully played and unfold as the movie goes on. What seems so simple at first is down to be the entirely complex human condition. I've seen this twice now and the second time was as good as the first. Thoroughly recommend
