The movie title is misleading. The high level summary of the movie story didn't sound interesting to me. But after watching the movie, it's the script & the characters that makes the movie worth watching. If you've never been on the receiving end of prejudice or bullying then you may not relate to this movie. For me, it was nice to see the victim(s) standing up for justice & slowly seeing other people/bystanders stand up for justice. Some clever cinematography like panning down the back edge of a wooden billboard ... camera peeking forward from behind - film texture. FrancesM is awesome. My 1st time seeing Woody act in a serious/injured role - not bad. My 1st time seeing PeterD play a lonely, shy, vulnerable guy asking someone out on a date. Despite the dark topic, there are funny bits & just enough silliness to not make this movie a complete downer. Again, great script. "... Anger ... begets greater anger ..." "Penelope said 'Begets'?" (The short film in the Bonus material was weird. The young crazy dude reminds me of a young Brad Pitt.)
