Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017) is the third feature film from Martin McDonagh. It stars Frances McDormand, Sam Rockwell, Woody Harrelson, John Hawkes, and Peter Dinklage.Months after her daughter Angela (Kathryn Newton) is brutally murdered, Mildred Hayes (McDormand) buys the advertising rights to three billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri and broadcasts the police department's inefficiency at finding any leads on the case. This puts Mildred in a town-wide controversy concerning her words against the recently cancer-diagnosed Police Chief Bill Willoughby (Harrelson), who is also fiercely backed by the angry, racist Officer Jason Dixon (Rockwell). Determined to keep the case in the public eye, Mildred loses favor with the townspeople as she continues to harass the police department, fueling a war that starts to take a violent turn.Character tropes go on to the Characters Sheet.

comment
Headphones Equal Isolation: Dixon fails to notice that something is seriously wrong in the office (i.e. that Chief Willoughby has committed suicide) because he's listening to "Chiquitita" by ABBA. A more serious example happens when he returns to the police station late at night and fails to hear the phone ringing (which is Mildred calling to make sure the station is empty before she firebombs it), and fails to notice that the station is on fire.

Amazingly Embarrassing Parents
 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri / int_1434e55c
comment
Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Mildred is an unusual variation, embarrassing Robbie through her unpopular, unflinching use of the billboards rather than through coddling or public humiliation. (Though kneeing two people in the groin at his school for throwing a soda can at her car and then lying about not having seen it happen is fairly embarrassing.)

A Good Way to Die: Willoughby spends his last day before committing suicide taking a day off with his family, playing silly games with his daughters, making love to his wife, and petting and feeding his beloved horses. He even plans how to best mitigate the pain of his passing by writing a series of suicide notes to encourage his wife and Dixon, and he gets the last laugh on Mildred by paying for the signs to stay up, leaving her to deal with the consequences.

comment
Just Train Wrong: The shop where Mildred and Denise work is near the railroad tracks. In one scene, a train is shown passing in the background. It is clearly a hodgepodge of vintage rolling stock rented from a railroad museum, not a working freight train that would be running anywhere in 21st century America.

Parents as People
 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri / int_20989d05
comment
Parents as People: Mildred is not exactly a candidate for mother of the year. While she clearly loves her son, he appears to be something of an afterthought to her own rage and grief (she's genuinely taken aback when Robbie furiously points out that the last thing he wants is to be constantly reminded of the horrific nature of his sister's death by three huge billboards proclaiming it within eyeshot of his house, suggesting that she didn't bother considering how he might feel about it before erecting them), the one flashback we see of her interacting with her daughter involves a bitter argument between them, and it seems that her relationship with her daughter was so sour that Angela expressed a desire to live with her wife-beating Disappeared Dad rather than her.

comment
Hollywood Law: At one point Dixon beats Red to a pulp and throws him out of a second story window in front of a street full of witnesses, including the new chief of police. His only punishment is getting fired instead of, you know, being immediately arrested for assault and attempted murder. When the new chief walks in and introduces himself to the assembled Ebbing Police, the desk sergeant asks him to prove who he is. The chief acts like this an absurd request and doesn't even bother to show them his badge. Somewhat justified in that he had just seen Dixon violently assault two people, and wasn't particularly impressed with the other cops, who were actively ignoring it.

Noodle Incident: A past "persons of color-torturing" scandal (also referred to in less savory terms) apparently involving Dixon is mentioned a few times, but no details are ever given. At one point Willoughby almost denies that it happened, but hesitates and simply says that it was never proven.

comment
Honor Before Reason: During an intense interrogation scene in which they both lob their best insults at each other, Willoughby suddenly coughs a massive amount of blood out of his mouth, inadvertently spraying Mildred. His first response is not to freak out at the prospect of coughing up a good portion of blood, but instead to profusely apologize to Mildred for doing so. Thankfully she has the proper response, and immediately runs to get assistance for him.

Advertised Extra: While he's far from an extra if you only looked at the advertising, then you'd think that Willoughby is the movie's second biggest role, when in actuality, it's Dixon. Straighter examples would be John Hawkes and Peter Dinklage, who are both noticeable and somewhat important figures in the story, but fairly small roles overall.

At Least I Admit It: When Charlie confronts Mildred over the billboards and her stubborn refusal to take them down, he points out that paying for them won't bring their daughter back or find justice for her. Mildred retorts that sleeping with a nineteen-year-old isn't going to do so either. Charlie concedes so, but points out that the difference between them is that he's not acting like it will.

Domestic Abuse: Mildred divorced Charlie because of this, though Angela and Robbie both claim that they never saw any evidence of this being true. When Charlie grabs Mildred in the midst of an argument, Robbie's extremely fast and apparently reflexive reaction of grabbing a kitchen knife and putting it to Charlie's throat suggests that he was likely lying in order to preserve a more positive image of his father.

Police Are Useless: Ironically, everyone except Chief Willoughby is, and he's dying of cancer. The new chief is clearly more competent than most of the department, but he still doesn't arrest Dixon after being a firsthand witness to him throwing a guy out a window. Really, it's hard to argue with Mildred when she says the cops are blatantly incompetent.

Jerkass Has a Point: Mildred's anger at what happened to her daughter and the failure of the police to find who did it is valid, but she's let it corrode her into an unpleasant and vindictive person lashing out at people who don't entirely deserve it.

Driven to Suicide: Willoughby shoots himself in the head since he knows his cancer will kill him anyway, and he didn't want to endure any more pain caused by the disease, as well as witnessing his wife and daughters suffer as they watch him deteriorate.

Grey-and-Gray Morality
 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri / int_7335ffa9
comment
Grey-and-Gray Morality: Mildred is a grieving mother who just wants her daughter's rapist/murderer found, but the lengths she goes to and her general unpleasant personality manage to make her very unsympathetic at times. On the other side, we have the police, specifically Dixon, who is a very racist, incompetent cop, but one who respects his boss Willoughby deeply and who really did want to do good in his community and eventually achieves redemption.

 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri / int_733ca2f8
comment
Noble Bigot with a Badge: Most of the cops (hell, most of the people of Ebbing) say or do things that could lightly be described as "offensive," particularly Dixon. Willoughby tells Mildred that, "If he fired every racist cop, he would have three left," and they would be homophobes. That said, most of the cops are portrayed as at least trying to do their jobs to the best of their abilities. This includes Dixon, albeit only after he no longer has a badge.

"The Reason You Suck" Speech: James delivers one when Mildred accuses him of 'forcing' her to date him, angrily pointing out that he merely asked her out after helping her and that while he's aware he's not exactly many people's idea of a catch, she has no room to judge him considering that she's become so bitter, angry and hate-filled that she'd stoop to firebombing a police station. Mildred gives a blistering one to the Reverend when he comes by and reprimands her about the billboards.

comment
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Willoughby's unwillingness to ever punish Dixon for anything has seriously stunted him as a person and a cop, leading to a lot of the conflict in the movie. Willoughby's suicide note combined with his firing nearly push Dixon in the right direction, but in a lot of ways it's too late; Dixon might be less violent, but he still never really confronts or grows past the "person of color-torturing" side of himself. Mildred burning down the police station in a fit of anger almost results in the evidence in Angela's case being destroyed.

Actually Pretty Funny: When Willoughby confesses in his letter that he paid for the billboards to be kept up for the month after his suicide purely to cause Mildred more grief, Mildred lets out a mild chuckle.

Turn of the Millennium

comment
Turn of the Millennium: At first glance the movie seems contemporary in setting, but upon closer inspection it doesn't quite seem to be The Present Day relative to its release in the mid-2010s: it looks modern enough, and one character uses "Google" as a verb, but there's a good mix of old cars as far back as The '80s if not earlier alongside the vaguely post-millennium cars; the only TV sets shown being used are similarly old CRT models; and the film is virtually devoid of smartphones or social media use: the only mobile phone shown is a flip phone used for a call, and that's about it. Plausibly the movie could be set as far back as the mid-2000s.

Artistic License – Medicine
 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri / int_8d6d9535
comment
Artistic License – Medicine: Somebody with burns as extensive as Dixon's would not be placed in a shared hospital room, due to the very high risk of infection. He would also not be discharged from the hospital after a mere couple of weeks — in reality he would require months of treatment and rehabilitation. While not wholly impossible, Willoughby would be very unlikely to cough up blood as a symptom of pancreatic cancer. The pancreas is part of the digestive system, not the respiratory system, and the two are not connected. He could have metastases on his lungs, but even then he wouldn't be likely to cough blood. Especially without any other respiratory symptoms, such as regular coughing or shortness of breath.

Laser-Guided Karma: Officer Dixon is a racist bully who throws his weight around town and is heavily implied to have tortured a "person-of-color" in a previous incident that he was never punished for. His comeuppance arrives after he throws Red through a window and viciously beats him in front of the whole town, pausing only to snarl a threat towards a dumbfounded African-American man watching him... who turns out to be the new police chief, who promptly fires him.

My God, What Have I Done?: Mildred gets a few of these moments throughout the story: At one point, she has an argument with her son about the billboards, during which he explodes and points out that in his struggle to process the horrible way his sister died and his grief over it, the last thing he wants is to see three huge billboards barely 500 feet away from his own home boldly proclaiming what happened to all who pass by them. From the taken-aback look on her face and the almost pathetically quiet way she tries to defend herself, it's pretty clear that Mildred is just realizing that she didn't consider even for a second what effect her billboards would have on her son. Mildred is horrified when she realizes that she burned down the police station while Dixon was still inside. She looks genuinely surprised and guilty when James delivers "The Reason You Suck" Speech after she accuses him of forcing her into dating him.

Dead Star Walking: Downplayed with Chief Willoughby (played by Woody Harrelson).

Forgiveness
 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri / int_b75b35ac
comment
Forgiveness: The film's Central Theme. Red, who is still recovering from his injuries, has a badly burnt Dixon at his mercy when they have to share a room in the hospital. They end up reconciling over some orange juice. Dixon forgiving Mildred, despite still feeling that she is responsible for Willoughby's suicide and knowing she is directly responsible for the fire that scarred him. Mildred's arc revolves around her desperately trying to forgive herself for the last words she had said to Angela, as she even apologizes to a deer which she personified as her daughter. She later forgives her ex-husband after he drunkenly admits to setting her billboards on fire, and shows gratitude to Dixon despite the ex-cop having repeatedly gone out of his way to harass her and her friends. And of course, the Arc Words: "Anger just begets greater anger".

Hard Truth Aesop
 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri / int_bbc77bb5
comment
Hard Truth Aesop: Even if you experience a great tragedy, even something as severe as your child being murdered and never receiving closure as to who did it or why, you can't use that as an excuse to let anger and grief turn you into a terrible person. Be careful what you say to someone you care about, you may never know if that is the last time you will see them alive. If your final words are not pleasant, it will be a guilt you carry for the rest of your life.

Empty Bedroom Grieving
 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri / int_c019a4c7
comment
Empty Bedroom Grieving: Mildred goes to the bedroom of her late daughter Angela and remembers her last conversation with her where they had a huge argument which ends with Angela storming out of the house and saying she hopes she gets raped on the way with Mildred yelling, "Yeah, I hope you get raped too." Unfortunately, Angela did get raped and murdered causing Mildred to regret what she had said to her.

Shout-Out
 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Possibly unintentional, but Angela Hayes shares the same name as a main character from the 1999 film American Beauty—another teenager in American Flyover Country who is similarly made the object of a man's sexual fantasies (but with a much luckier fate).

Description Cut: The letter Dixon received ends with "you've had a run of bad luck, but things are gonna change for you. I can feel it."... just as a Molotov Cocktail is thrown at the table right in front of him, making him finally notice the police station is under attack.

Red Herring
 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri / int_dbca2c99
comment
Red Herring: It starts to look as if a man that threatened Mildred midway through the film and suggested he harmed Angela was indeed her killer, but after Dixon sends in his DNA sample, the new chief informs him that the man was nowhere in town (or even the country) when Angela's murder took place. To a lesser extent, it seems that Dixon was the one who torched the three billboards, until Charlie reveals that he actually did it.

Very Loosely Based on a True Story: Of Steve Page's likely murder of his estranged wife Kathy, the botched investigation of which prompted her father to put up multiple billboards blasting the police for their incompetence and corruption. Martin McDonagh was inspired to create the movie because of this.

Hate Sink: Dixon is a racist waste of a man who does nothing but abuse his status as a cop to assault and intimidate innocents. Then his Dark and Troubled Past is revealed, and he starts making a genuine effort to atone for his misdeeds. However, whether the second half of the film makes up for his acts before is up to the viewer. Given his abuse of Mildred, Charlie also qualifies, despite having significantly less screen time. Unlike Dixon however, he does not show significant signs of becoming a better person.

comment
No Ending: The film ends inconclusively; Mildred never learns who raped and murdered her daughter and the one lead that seemed like it might lead to the murderer turned out to be a dead end. Mildred and Dixon decide to go after him anyway since he was bragging about raping and murdering someone, though in the car on the way there, they are unsure whether they plan to actually kill him or not. All the subplots are similarly inconclusive.

Easily Forgiven: At the end, when Mildred and Dixon are driving to Idaho to maybe kill a rapist (not the one who killed Mildred's daughter), Mildred confesses that she was the one who burned down the police station (and seriously burned half of Dixon's body-she didn't know he was inside), he just casually says "Who the fuck else would it be?"

Would Hit a Girl
 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri / int_f42f96fa
comment
Would Hit a Girl: Such is Mildred's rage over Angela's unsolved murder and the controversy over the billboards that she doesn't think twice about physically attacking anyone who gives her grief, male or female. When one of Robbie's fellow students lobs a soda can at her car while she is dropping him off at school, she ignores his pleas to let it go and confronts the group of students responsible. When she asks a boy if he saw who threw the can and he nonchalantly replies, "What can?", she knees him in the crotch. She then asks a girl if she saw who threw the can, and when the girl begins stammering that she didn't see anything, Mildred kicks her in the crotch as well.

Pet the Dog: The characters' willingness to do this for people they should hate is a major theme throughout the movie: including James rushing to put out Dixon while he's on fire, Welby getting Dixon a straw for his orange juice while the latter is hospitalized with burns, Dixon saving the Angela Hayes murder file from being burned and Mildred telling Charlie to take good care of Penelope. As an Establishing Character Moment, Mildred flips over a beetle that is struggling on its back, showing that she's a decent person.
