Martin McDonagh and Colin Farrell have made three brilliant dark comedies together, but not all of their movie collaborations are equal in quality.
Martin McDonagh and Colin Farrell have collaborated on three pitch-black comedies — In Bruges, Seven Psychopaths, and The Banshees of Inisherin — but while each is hilarious and profound, some are better than others. McDonagh began his career as a playwright before bringing his acerbic wit to the big screen. Thanks to his theater background, the filmmaker is always focused on dialogue and character, and he gives his actors challenging roles to play.
As a self-aware movie about a storyteller facing a creative block, Seven Psychopaths is like 8½ with guns and dognappings. Farrell stars as hard-drinking screenwriter Marty Faranan opposite Sam Rockwell as Billy Bickle, a struggling actor who moonlights as a small-time crook to pay the bills, and Christopher Walken as Hans Kieslowski, Billy’s partner in crime.
2 In Bruges Martin McDonagh and Colin Farrell instantly became a renowned actor-director pairing with their work on In Bruges. Farrell’s performance earned him a Golden Globe, while McDonagh’s script earned him a BAFTA Film Award and an Oscar nomination. Farrell and Brendan Gleeson star as a pair of contract killers, Ray and Ken, who are sent to hide out in a “fairy tale town” in Belgium after one of them makes a harrowing mistake on the job. With an 84% score on Rotten Tomatoes and a 7.
