In addition, Three Billboards’ writing was clever about humanizing the character without being too emphatic – found that perfect balance again.
While I don’t think I agree that he had the makings of a good cop, he definitely had the capacity to become a decent person (through experience and education).

Also, I expected the movie to sideline him or just use the character to build the atmosphere, but Dixon (that’s his name) actually became the main player as a story unraveled and experienced real growth. I could not reconcile his worldview and his hobbies in my mind. However, the script then added some little extraordinary details that intrigued me, like his enjoyment of comic books, ABBA, and classical music. He began the film as an openly racist and homophobic cop – just an awful human being, but also, simultaneously, a sad little person.
The second lead – the unfit police officer – was the most unexpected character for me. The flashbacks, showing the mother’s and daughter’s last moments together, also added so much depth to the story. Also, the film did a good job of showing the extremism of Mildred (the mother) but also of making her actions understandable – the balance was just right. the billboards) and highly emotional plea of a grieving mother was fascinating. The whole interplay/juxtaposition between typically emotionless corporate advertising spaces (a.k.a. The way the film visualized pain – by focusing it on the billboards – was also super interesting. It was refreshing to see a character allowed to grieve openly and express her anger (it a small step from pain to anger) rather than bottling it up (our society likes us to grieve in private and be done quickly so that we could rejoin society as productive members as soon as possible). To begin with, the writing for the grieving mother was just spectacular. This picture was, in my mind, more of an exploration of these three characters rather than a crime drama with them in it. Three Billboards was a story of three characters (3 billboards, 3 leads), and, through these characters’ arcs, the movie was able to explore a plethora of themes. I’m happy to report that McDonagh took this story in an unexpected and as unique as its premise direction. Before seeing this film, I knew its premise (and thought it was super unique) but I had no idea where the narrative would go. McDonagh was inspired to write this movie by actual billboards about a crime that he has seen while traveling somewhere in the southeast of the US. Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (amazing title, tbh) was written and directed by Martin McDonagh, known for such films as In Bruges and Seven Psychopaths. IMDb summary: A mother personally challenges the local authorities to solve her daughter’s murder when they fail to catch the culprit.
