2 "Big" Movies Get High Ratings

These 2 great films, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri and The Darkest Hour will obviously be up for Oscars this season.  Frances McDormand is spot-on as a fed up mother whose murdered daughter's criminal investigation has dragged on without results for over a year.  Is there an actress alive who could have come near to matching this performance?  Plus, the script here is also Oscar worthy as well as the cast, especially Sam Rockwell, as an angry cop and Woody Harrelson as the sheriff.   In The Darkest Hour Gary Oldman plays Winston Churchill as a tough, gruff, articulate and forceful leader during the time the Brits and the world needed him most.  It's another Oscar worthy performance and so is that of his wife, played by Kristin Scott Thomas.
