Where was Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri filmed
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
Year: 2017
Country: USA
<p>The movie "Three Billboards on the Ebbing, Missouri Border" was filmed in Sylva and Black Mountain, USA. Interestingly enough, the shooting took place not in the state of Missouri or even on the state border, but in North Carolina, which means that you still have to drive across the state of Tennessee to get to Missouri. </p>

Locations
Billboards
In movie
Scene where An Ebbing County Sheriff is driving to his place of business and notices that someone has placed huge billboards along the road that state that the police are not doing their job and not looking for criminals.
Real
Scene was shot along North Fork Road on land normally used for grazing. In reality, there are no billboards here, they were set up specifically for the movie. This is natural, as the road is too unpopular for advertising.
Ebbing Advertising Company
In movie
Scene where Mildred arrives at Red Welby's office to make an interesting arrangement - to place three billboards in a place where no one has advertised in a long time and pay for them at once for an extended period of time.
Real
Scene was shot in front of a building that houses a small farm store. It was filmed in the town of Silva, where the rest of the movie was shot.
Ebbing Police Department (bathroom)
In movie
Scene where Willoughby meets Dixon in the restroom of the police station, where they hug and cry, and after making sure they both feel better, they wash up and go back to the station.
Real
Scene was shot in the church, since most of the filming of "Police Station" took place in a converted store, the right-sized room with sinks and stalls was simply not there.
Souvenir store
In movie
Scene where Mildred works in a gift store in the local town. The sheriff comes into the store to see if Mildred has assaulted the dentist. He says that since the dentist has pressed charges, they have to detain her and question her
Real
Scene was shot in a small town west of Silva. In reality, it is also a locally made souvenir and wine store. So for the movie, all the merchandise inside had to be replaced with souvenirs from Missouri.
Town Pump Tavern
In movie
Scene where Dixon goes to a bar to confront the alleged rapist of Mildred's daughter. He purposely quarrels with him and puts up a fight, only to scratch his face and get DNA samples that can be used in the investigation.
Real
Scene was shot in a small bar in the town of Black Mountain. We chose the location for the authentic look of a small pub in a small town that looks like a regular American bar, with billiards, a stage and a long bar.
