In Seven Psychopaths, McDonagh gets to have his cake while quite brazenly eating it. His philosophy, along with Farrell's character's, only stretches so far. "Obviously, you've seen the film, it's not a heavy didactic thing," says McDonagh. "The fun of it was, can you have a gangster film that quotes Gandhi every 20 minutes?" We talk about the glut of senseless violence in many of today's shallow slugfests, characters and scripts invariably playing second fiddle to endless rounds of liberally distributed ammunition.
