Martin McDonagh’s IN BRUGES was brilliant for far more reasons than I have room or time to write about here, keenly capturing moments of brilliance, humor, darkness, violence, rage, terror, poetry, romantic possibility, moral discovery, and existential dilemma all with insight and ease.
SEVEN PSYCOPATHS, also written and directed by McDonagh, is on track for a limited release this fall and as such has released three hi-res pictures that give us our first real look at three of the titular psycopaths (you can see the others numbered off below). Here’s to fervently hoping that these picturesare just the beginning, and that more promotional artwork and a trailer will soon follow.
Here’s the basic plot synopsis: SEVEN PSYCOPATHS “follows a struggling screenwriter (Colin Farrell) who inadvertently becomes entangled in the Los Angeles criminal underworld after his oddball friends (Christopher Walken and Sam Rockwell) kidnap a gangster’s (Woody Harrelson) beloved Shih Tzu.”
