Cast a surly, bad - ass, toss - out - the - rule - book LA
cop, his character is so obsessed with nailing the criminal mastermind behind a recent spate of bank robberies (played
by Pablo Schreiber), he
stalks him in restaurants, sleeps with his stripper girlfriend and, in one of the more bizarre scenes, indulges in a shooting competition with him at a firing range.
To jump - start the authorities, Frances points out their ineptitude, both on those billboards and
by stalking into the precinct house and facing off with good - ol» - boy
cops played
by Woody Harrelson and Sam Rockwell, who don't stand a chance against Frances, because her hard - nosed stare can see into their souls and snort with disappointment.
