May 22, 20232 yr Wasn't the book also writing by a white guy? No crying about that????????????? Film Critic Tries to Inject Race Card Into ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ Narrative Film critic Robert Daniels with another bewildering take, this time he’s aiming his darts at Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon.” Daniels tweeted, “It’s good that [Scorsese] had advisors. But advising isn’t the movie.” Here is Daniels trying to stir up another controversy. These advisors he seems to be referring to include Native Chief Jim Grey, who wholeheartedly endorsed the film. Can Daniels rightfully speak for those he appears to be defending? Of course not, but he’s still trying to inject controversy into this film’s narrative. Daniels’ review isn’t any better, he states ‘Killers’ is about “the evil in white men’s hearts and the poison they spread, and the erasure that occurs when their stain touches you.” He goes on to say: A white director taking it on brings with it deserved charges of exploitation and fears that another white person will once again whitewash Indigenous history. You want less rooting through the vile actions of these white folks — which only serves them, even as villains — and more of the ripe emotional vein that building out Mollie can provide. Scorsese’s film passionately depicts the Osage nation and honors both the victims and the survivors of the tragedy. Sometimes, it’s as simple as that. The race card doesn’t need to be brought up every time a white filmmaker depicts non-white people. Of course, Daniels will likely not be alone, I’m sure more detractors will come out of the woodworks and nitpick their own issues about how the Osage people and their history was portrayed. For now, the Osage community supports the portrayal and that’s the only thing that matters when it comes to this topic. Alfonso Cuarón Calls ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ a Masterpiece I know you’re all aware that Martin Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon” was met with ecstatic reactions at Cannes. Its Metascore is 91 and there is the feel that it’s an essential addition to Scorsese’s impressive filmography. Alfonso Cuarón is a major fan. He raved about it to Variety. Here he is in his own words: It’s an amazing masterpiece […] This is a filmmaker in amazing pure form. He’s fearless about his filmmaking decisions and he’s allowing himself to do it with no safety net. There truly is no safety net for Scorsese in this film. He goes for broke, which is quite astounding when you think about it. He’s 80. Not many other filmmakers would be given the creative freedom to make a movie like this one. If Scorsese went for slower and more contemplative cinema in “Silence” and “The Irishman,” he’s made a very energetic crime film with ‘Killers.’ A semi-flawed one, yes, but, on a moment by moment basis, it’s the best filmmaking I’ve seen this year at Cannes.

May 22, 20232 yr Killers of the Flower Moon Accuracy & Sensitivity Addressed By Descendant Of Murder Victim Jim Gray, a direct descendent of one of the murder victims that Killers of the Flower Moon portrays, addresses the film’s respect for real history. Jim Gray, a direct descendant of a murder victim who features in Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon, addresses the film's historical accuracy and sensitivity to real-world Indigenous cultures. Starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Lily Gladstone, and Robert De Niro, Killers of the Flower Moon chronicles the true story of the FBI investigation into a series of murders of members of the Osage Nation in 1920s Oklahoma after oil is discovered on their land. The film is an adaptation of a 2017 non-fiction book by author David Grann. Ahead of Killers of the Flower Moon's release date later this fall, Gray, a direct descendant of murder victim Henry Roan, takes to Twitter to share his thoughts on Scorsese's upcoming crime epic after his own private screening. Gray, a former Principal Chief of the Osage Nation, shares that Scorsese ultimately made modern-day members of the Osage Nation integral to the creation of the film and took their input into consideration in the crafting of the story. Check out Gray's tweets below: full article

May 22, 20232 yr I wonder how much Jesse Plemons is in the actual movie. I didn't read a thing about him or his performance AT ALL so far. Scorsese and De Niro reunite at Cannes for Killers of the Flower Moon The director and actor talked about learning from the Native American nation at the heart of their latest film Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro have reunited at the Cannes film festival to present a feature together for the first time in almost half a century, discussing their acclaimed new movie, Killers of the Flower Moon, on Sunday. “We haven’t been here together since 76,” said De Niro, recalling the premiere of Taxi Driver, the second of their 10 collaborations, which won the festival’s top prize, the Palme d’Or. Both men spoke of the importance to them both of sensitively telling the story of a succession of murders that terrorised the Osage people in Oklahoma in the mid-1920s. These killings were motivated by a desire to ensure the new wealth created by oil found on the Osage reservation fell into the hands of white incomers. Scorsese said he had been so deeply influenced by his encounters with the Native Americans that he switched the film’s focus and decided to tell the story of the crimes from the victims’ perspective. The 80-year-old director, whose Catholicism has been a dominant theme in many of his films to date, attended a series of Osage council sessions in which he observed their prayers and rituals. “I was so affected and so moved,” he said. “I know what their values are and [that they are] really understanding how to live on this planet. It reoriented me every time they spoke.” Joining Scorsese at the press conference was Chief Standing Bear, leader of the Osage Nation, who said that his people still suffer to this day. “But I can say on behalf of the Osage Nation that Scorsese and his team have restored trust,” he added. Killers of the Flower Moon was rapturously received at its premiere on Saturday evening at Cannes, where it is showing out of competition. Scorsese’s 26th feature – and, at almost four hours, one of his longest – is adapted from David Grann’s nonfiction book of the same name. Questioned about his radical approach to this source material, much of which was rejected in favour of a revisionist take on the case, Scorsese said: “As far as taking risks at this age, what else can I do? Do a comfortable film? Like sitting on a set in the heat is comfortable? We might as well be risking something.” The director credited the film’s star, Leonardo DiCaprio, with steering much of the story, saying that he and the actor had first imagined the film as being told from the point of view of the FBI. “I felt it is not a whodunnit, but a who-didn’t-do-it. But then Leo asked me: ‘Where is the heart of this story?” The pair, who had already worked together on five feature films, then concentrated on a real-life character who was “least written about”: an apparent chancer called Ernest Burkhart, who married into the Osage community and became embroiled in the murders. “I said: ‘Let’s create Ernest as a template for that tragedy of love, trust and betrayal,” said Scorsese, “and what happened to the Indigenous people.’” De Niro plays DiCaprio’s uncle, and said some of the “systemic racism” shown in the film became clearer to him after witnessing reactions to the killing of George Floyd almost three years ago. “It is the banality of evil, the thing we have to watch out for,” he said, adding: “We see it today.” The actor has long been a vocal critic of the former president Donald Trump and compared public reaction to his election to the casual inhumanity depicted in the film. “There are people that think he could do a good job – imagine how insane that is.” Source

Can't wait to see it 😄 Spoiler Gladstone plays Mollie as a savvy skeptic, who nonetheless finds herself charmed by DiCaprio’s wide-eyed dummy. She knows fully well he is tempted by her money, but she just can’t help herself and neither can he. He meanwhile is truly captivated by her, at the same time coveting what she has. He thinks he can occupy two roles at once: That of Hale’s accomplice and that of Millie’s dedicated husband. One by one Mollie’s sisters begin to die, all the while Ernest and Mollie develop a growing family.
May 22, 20232 yr Vikramaditya Motwane watches Leonardo DiCaprio's Killers of the Flower Moon at Cannes, pens heartfelt note Vikramaditya Motwane took to Instagram to share his experience after watching Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon at Cannes Film Festival. Vikramaditya Motwane and Anurag Kashyap are currently at the Cannes Film Festival. Both filmmakers recently attended the premiere of Martin Scorsese's latest film Killers of the Flower Moon, starring Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio. Vikramaditya then took to Instagram to share the experience of watching the film at Cannes. (Also read: Robert De Niro compares his Killers Of The Flower Moon character to Donald Trump: ‘But that guy is stupid’) Taking to Instagram to share the overwhelming feeling of witnessing the star-studded premiere, the Jubilee director shared a bunch of pictures from the screening of the film. The first picture showed the opening titles of the film on screen, with 'A Martin Scorsese Picture' written in bold. Another picture showed the tickets to the screening of the film. He also captured a snippet of the standing ovation the film received at the end of the screening. The last picture of the post saw Vikramaditya and Anurag together. "The word honour and privilege get used too easily sometimes, but not in this case…Just being in THIS cinema, at THIS moment, watching THIS man present his film to the world for the first time was SOMETHING ELSE! The two children in the last photo could never have imagined this while watching Mean Streets 20+ years ago. Thank You @shruti_kapoor_21 for the style." Vikramaditya wrote in the caption. Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon received a 9-minute standing ovation after its premiere, the longest of the festival so far. Based on the titular book by David Grann, the 3 and a half hour film focuses on the a series of murders of wealthy Osage people that took place in Osage County, Oklahoma, in the early 1920s. Critics showered praise on the western epic, calling it a masterpiece, with special attention to the performance of actor Lily Gladstone. Amid the standing ovation, Scorsese also addressed the crowd and said, “Thank you to the Osages. Everyone connected with the picture. My old pals Bob and Leo, and Jesse and Lily. We shot this a couple of years ago in Oklahoma. It’s taken it’s time to come around but Apple did so great by us. There was lots of grass. I’m a New Yorker. I was very surprised. This was an amazing experience. We lived in that world.” Source
