Episode 138 - Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

All this anger just begets greater anger; no, we're not talking about Ian and Ethan here.  Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew: Ian, Liam, and Georgia (Ethan's putting up a billboard) as we're debating driving all the way to Idaho as we review Three Billboards Outside of Ebbing, Missouri.  Liam's emptying the chamber in our 138th episode as we discuss:

• Does Martin McDonagh have a specific penchant after comparing this film to In Bruges?
• Is Woody Harrelson's character a hero, a martyr, or an egomaniac?  Is his perfect day self-indulgent and the least caring thing he could do
• Why cast the character of the drifter to appear for both Mildren and Dixon
• What else have we seen Sam Rockwell in and why doesn't he get his due?
• Why was Frances McDormand hesitant to do this film and who talked her into doing it?
• Is this the best Martin McDonagh film ever?
• How does Pip make his presence this week? We give him a title.
• Does the dark humour go too far?
• Does this film start with too horrific of a premise to walk the tonal line it does?
• Whether or not Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri is the Best Film Ever
