10 best movie trailers of 2022, ranked
The movie trailers of 2022 posed some of the biggest questions moviedom has seen for years, like why is Mario’s butt so flat?

2002’s trailers served up surprises, em...

Martin McDonagh’s darkly comic stage plays and their links to ‘The Banshees of Inisherin’
The Banshees of Inisherin reunited Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson from Martin McDonagh’s first feature, In Bruges. McDonagh’s career has soared since that dark comedy crime caper debuted in 2008. It was clear when Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, fittingly McDonagh’s third dark comedy, earned seven Academy Award nominations and secured acting statuettes for Frances McDormand and Sam Rockwell.
