If you want to see Oscar-winning actress Frances McDormand kick teens in the crotch and swear up a storm, then Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri looks like the movie for you. The new movie from Oscar-winning writer/director Martin McDonagh (In Bruges, Seven Psychopaths) dropped its first trailer, and it's the Red Band kind.

I was extremely impressed by the early episodes of Underground, Wgn America's drama about a mass slave escape from a Georgia plantation. Over the course of its first season, my estimation for the storytelling and performances only grew, and I was very glad when Wgn recently ordered another season. If you have the means to catch up (Wgn's not available on all cable systems, the episodes are available for purchase but not to stream on any subscription service), I strongly recommend it. Tonight was the season finale, and I want to talk about a few specific things that happened in the episode just as soon as I tell you about the one rule you can't break...

Let's just say that film fans who have followed director David Gordon Green's career for some time were left perplexed after watching "The Sitter." Released by 20th Century Fox, the Jonah Hill comedy was a disappointment with critics and at the box office -- "The Sitter" owns a Rotten Tomatoes score of 22 percent and earned just $34 million at the global box office.
Green, however, is certainly not apologetic for the film, even if it even it doesn't speak to his core audience the way festival favorites like "All the Real Girls" and the box-office smash "Pineapple Express" did.
