HBO's 'Olive Kitteridge' adapts
Elizabeth Stout's 2008
Pulitzer-winning collection of thirteen short stories into a four-hour mini-series, with
Frances McDormand as the titular character.
Taking place in
Maine, New England over the series of many decades, the series explores
Olive's relationships with her husband,
'Henry' (played by
Richard Jenkins), and their son,
'Christopher', plus though her eyes the secret lives of the townsfolk around her and all their affairs, crimes, joys and tragedies.
These billboards for the dramatic mini-series with
Olive's arched eyebrows hint at the fact she's observing events around her and at the high standards she holds everyone and the world at large to.
The landscape bulletin was snapped along
Melrose Avenue on October 8, whilst the giant-sized billboard was spotted towering over the
Sunset Strip westbound on October 25, 2014.
This design focus on
Frances McDormand's eyes immediately reminded
Daily Billboard of these
season eleven billboards for the Ellen Degeneres show, although the comedienne's eyes are far more playful.
She's watching everyone else pass by, but will you be watching
Olive Kitteridge tonight?
UPDATED: Frances McDormand has already been nominated for her titular performance by the
Golden Globes and she may not have won (although she did win a
Screen Actors Guild Award), but there's still an
Emmy within her grasp (although the actress herself always seems a bit nonplussed by the whole affair).
Here's her
"Masterpiece" Emmy billboard for
Olive Kitteridge spied along
Sunset Boulevard on May 19, 2015 and it's part of
HBO's 2015 Emmy Consideration billboard campaign, so be sure to check them all out.
