Director: Martin McDonagh

Starring: Frances McDormand, Woody Harrelson, Sam Rockwell,

A mother personally challenges the local authorities to solve her daughter’s murder when they fail to catch the culprit.

Frances McDormand is EXCELLENT! Acting from the entire cast was superb and the script is awesome (pity about all the unnecessary foul language, though). Considering the theme, there is actually so much sadness behind all the humor. Writer/director Martin McDonagh found a brilliant way of not making a very sad story depressing. The drama and humor blends so seamlessly, its quite magnificent actually. The film in its entirety is a masterpiece. It does kinda leave you hanging in the end, but it is truly fantastic.

The film received almost 200 award nominations and won 69 (at the time of writing this review). It was also nominated for 7 Oscars (still pending at this stage). It already won awards for Best Film, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Screenplay, Best Editing, Best Music, Best Ensemble, Best Drama Movie, Film of the Year, Screenwriter of the Year, among others.
