IN BRUGES set the par pretty high for Martin McDonagh. I mean, you don’t win an Academy Award for writing a shitty movie, do you? (Please list shitty Oscar winners in the talk back! I know there are some!) Where do you go next? Well, SEVEN PSYCHOPATHS seems to be taking all of the best parts of IN BRUGES and running with them. Dark comedy, violence, great dialogue, unique characters, and lots of profanity.
This red band behind the scenes look at SEVEN PSYCHOPATHS packs in all of the stars talking about Martin McDonagh as if he is the next Martin Scorsese. Most of these are scenes from the trailers, but hearing the actors let loose and talk about the movie without censoring their language is fun. Plus, how often do you get to hear Christopher Walken go on a random aside about owl watching between takes?>/p>
Plot: Written and Directed by Oscar®-winner Martin McDonagh, the comedy Seven Psychopaths 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. Co-starring Abbie Cornish, Tom Waits, Olga Kurylenko and Zeljko Ivanek.
We have not seen much of Olga Kurylenko or Abbie Cornish in the trailers, so I hope we get to see a lot more in the movie itself. Here’s to hoping that when SEVEN PSYCHOPATHS hits Blu-ray that all of the special features for the movie are as fun as this one.
SEVEN PSYCHOPATHS opens this Friday.
