Did he find the switch from theatre to film difficult? “Well, put it this way, Hangmen is fun and relaxing after the films. Firstly, I had to become a director to protect the scripts. Seven Psychopaths wasn’t so bad, but In Bruges was relentless and exhausting. I had to deal with them [Focus Films, the production company]trying to change anything they could change. And Focus are supposed to be supportive, indie-filmmaker-friendly people. Scumbags. It was constant war, but they never won.” Undaunted, he tells me he has written his next film, provisionally titled Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri and starring Frances McDormand, which he’s hoping will start shooting early next year. “It’s about a 50-year-old woman whose daughter is murdered and she goes to war with the police in her home town, because she thinks they are more interested in torturing black people than getting justice.” Though it sounds uncannily topical given recent events in Missouri and beyond, it was, he says, written “about four years ago”. |
