Martin McDonagh has made an extraordinary film in so many ways, starting with the brilliant theatrical script and the performances of all the main actors involved: Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, Barry Keoghan, and Kerry Condon. This also applies to all the supporting roles.
The humour is brilliant, the film is extremely funny but also meaningful and difficult to interpret, at times shocking and quite unpredictable. It is hard not to empathise with the characters and their vicissitudes. At the end of the screening, more then receiving answers, I felt I had learnt and witnessed something important, even though I couldn't immediately point what. A beautiful film that triggers deep reflection.
