VARÈSE SARABANDE RECORDS TO RELEASE THE
THREE BILLBOARDS OUTSIDE EBBING, MISSOURI –
ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK
Featuring Original Music Composed By Carter Burwell
With Songs By Townes Van Zandt, Monsters of Folk, The Four Tops, and Joan Baez
(November 8, 2017 – Los Angeles, CA) – Varèse Sarabande will release the THREE BILLBOARDS OUTSIDE EBBING, MISSOURI - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack digitally onNovember 10, and on CDNovember 17, 2017. The album features original music by Carter Burwell (CAROL, WONDERSTRUCK).
“Frances McDormand, can do anything,” said Burwell. “We’ve done so many different things together, including FARGO, OLIVE KITTERIDGE and going back to BLOOD SIMPLE. Martin McDonagh, with whom I previously worked with on IN BRUGES, has similar sensibilities to me, and I’d be happy to work with him on anything. This film really felt like getting back together with my family.”
THREE BILLBOARDS OUTSIDE EBBING, MISSOURI is a darkly comedic drama from Academy Award® winner Martin McDonagh (IN BRUGES). After months have passed without a culprit in her daughter’s murder case, Mildred Hayes (Academy Award® winner Frances McDormand) makes a bold move, commissioning three signs leading into her town with a controversial message directed at William Willoughby (Academy Award® nominee Woody Harrelson), the town's revered chief of police. When his second-in-command Officer Dixon (Sam Rockwell), an immature mother’s boy with a penchant for violence, gets involved, the battle between Mildred and Ebbing's law enforcement is only exacerbated.
“I think that the music is really putting you in the position of Frances’s character,” Burwell explained. “I think it’s almost always what the music should be doing, helping you to see things from her point of view, when she does things that might be reprehensible, to help you understand what she’s doing.”
Carter Burwell has composed the music for more than 80 feature films, including BLOOD SIMPLE, RAISING ARIZONA, MILLER'S CROSSING, BARTON FINK, THE HUDSUCKER PROXY, ROB ROY, FARGO, THE SPANISH PRISONER, GODS AND MONSTERS, VELVET GOLDMINE, THREE KINGS, BEING JOHN MALKOVICH, O BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU? (BAFTA Nominee for Film Music), BEFORE NIGHT FALLS, A KNIGHT’S TALE, THE ROOKIE, ADAPTATION, INTOLERABLE CRUELTY, NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN, IN BRUGES, BURN AFTER READING, TWILIGHT, WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE (Golden Globe Nominee for Best Original Score), A SERIOUS MAN, THE BLIND SIDE, THE KIDS ARE ALL RIGHT, TRUE GRIT, TWILIGHT: BREAKING DAWN – PART 1 & 2, AND THE FIFTH ESTATE, MR. HOLMES, LEGEND, THE FINEST HOURS, HAIL CAESAR!, THE FAMILY FANG, THE FOUNDER, and most recently GOODBYE CHRISTOPHER ROBIN and WONDERSTRUCK.
Burwell most recently wrote the music for the drama CAROL starring Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara. Burwell received his first Oscar nomination for Best Original Score for CAROL. He was also was nominated for a Golden Globe and a Critics’ Choice Movie Award for CAROL. Burwell won the Los Angeles Film Critics Association’s Award for Best Music Score for CAROL and ANOMALISA. His theater work includes the chamber opera The Celestial Alphabet Event and the Mabou Mines productions Mother and Lucia’s Chapters of Coming Forth by Day. Burwell has taught and lectured at The Sundance Institute, New York University, Columbia University, and Harvard University.

I'll definitely pick this up as a Burwell completist, and it looks like the all the most gorgeous cues are there. "Billboards on Fire" is one of Burwell's best.
However one of my favorite cues from the FYC appears to be missing, "Ski Mask" is kind of slight and nondescript if you haven't seen the film, but it's absolutely WRENCHING once you've seen it in context. Sadly it looks like it was left off the album.

CD players can be programmed to skip tracks and I'm sure you know how to make a playlist in your digital media player.
Although complaining about stuff that doesn't matter is your specialty.

If DVD players could be programmed the same way, imagine selling DVD with commercials and random crap inside the body of the film, where it stops. Makes no sense flow wise, just there for the hell of it so some Helpful Internet Person can remind us we can program CD players. Thanks! We'd not have known this if not for the helpful reminder!

That is a dumb comparison. Films are contiguous and that would certainly ruin the flow. These are individual tracks and if you just skip the songs it is no different than the songs not being there.
