    Thank you Lucas Blue! Your breakdown and explanation of movies is highly compelling (I've watched two so far and am eager to watch more). I like how you present a synopsis, background and thematic analysis that is well-researched, insightful and thoughtful; and refrain from digressing into personal 'likes and dislikes'. Kudos! It gives followers like me a good sense of the film and allows me to make an educated evaluation of whether I would like to watch the film (if I haven't seen it yet) and/or have an interesting asynchronous post-mortem of the film 'with you' (if I have seen it). // I've seen KotFM and felt your commentary was spot on -- and all in under 15minutes (I am very impressed!). One comment in regard to the 'Self-Delusion' theme (about the film, not about your commentary): I felt the film's portrayal of L di C's character Ernest was not credible 'enough' / there was not sufficient attention paid to Ernest's 'character development'. Hale was mercenary through and through; Molly was dependent & trusting & resilient; but Ernest came across as brash one moment and cowed the next, made love to his wife one moment and assassinated her family the next... it may be how it was, but the only explanation I could give for that behaviour is Amnesia or Psychosis, and there's no suggestion Ernest had either. (I see
    @kathyscott9219 below in the comments had a similar 'incredulous' reaction to how Ernest's character was portrayed, and puts it down to the age the characters were IRL when the events took place). Character portrayal aside: I am grateful to Scorsese et al for bringing the facts of the treatment of the Osage to the mainstream big screen, for me it was a shocking history lesson and one with repercussions / ripples that continue to this day.

      Omg I'm so glad you enjoyed it all so much, thank you!! And I can totally see what you mean about Ernest's character. Had I not watched Scorsese's interviews, I'm not totally sure if I would've understood who he was truly. And yeah, nonetheless, there was so much to both enjoy and learn with it. I'm super glad you enjoyed it like I did! Thank you so much!!

    i give it 4 stars.
    This film did made me feel for the osage victims along with the misleading trust we give to poeple who we think are heros, but not discovering them enough about them as a human and their actions, which is still a problem in today society.
    This film also made me a little paranoid of the murders including the illnesses and heavy diabetes some of the characters had which made me feel sick and bad for them.
    just like with the schindler's list and the pianist im not rewatchaing this film anytime soon

      @lucasblue20  7 месяцев назад +1

      Totally understand your point of view, I too think I’ll have to wait a while before I watch this again because the subject matter is sooo tragic, and the main protagonists are the criminals. Nonetheless, thank you for watching this video, and I’m super glad we both got to experience the film!

    In a lot of ways, William Hale as a character (as shown in the film) bears a lot of similarities to Warden Samuel Norton from The Shawshank Redemption. They are both unscrupulous men of wealth and influence who put on this facade of a kindly Southern gentleman, who are presented as pious, straight laced and amiable, while pretending to be a friend and ally of the people under their charge, and both men would carry around a Bible and quote scripture to maintain their sanctimonious image. But behind closed doors, just like Hale, Norton was a greedy and corrupt sociopath who exploited his prisoners for personal gain, and would straight up murder them or put them through inhumane torture if they interfered with his illegal money making operations or threatened to expose him. Also both men tried to justify their ruthless treatment of the Osage/Shawshank prisoners by dehumanizing them, as they saw themselves as their moral superior and therefore entitled to enrich themselves at their expense.

      Thank you man, totally my pleasure! Scorsese is such a multi-dimensional filmmaker in even the simplest of scenes, I completely agree

    In 1921, Congress passed a law to create the Osage guardianship program, which is when the Osage murders started. In 1925, after pressure from the Osage people, Congress finally changed the law to prohibit whites from inheriting headrights from Osage people. Shortly thereafter the Osage murders stopped. In summary, the Osage Terror was a series of diabolical crimes entirely motivated by the passage of federal legislation.
    The movie gives viewers the impression that Bill Hale (Robert DeNiro's character) single-handedly masterminded the Osage Terror. He didn't. The FBI knew this, but they closed the Osage murders case anyway. There were many people who systematically targeted the Osage people for their enormous wealth, including all of the state appointed guardians. Once the Osage oil wealth vanished, the Osage people faced the very same problems as other Native American tribes in Oklahoma, but they were no longer targeted for murder.
    David Grann certainly knew all this. Martin Scorsese, if he did any research to prepare for the movie, should have known it too. This information is easy to find within a few minutes of googling. Why doesn't the book or movie mention any of it?

    I think that the age difference of the actors and the real people changed the story. In real life, Ernest was 19 when he came to work for his uncle and Hale was 41. The movie had to make an older Ernest be stupid, instead of a young Ernest be easily manipulated. And Hale was less believable doing the evil deeds at 80 than at 41. Still, I enjoyed the movie. I know that Martin Scorsese has his favs..but both being twice (or more) the age of their characters is a bit much.

    I think the movie should of started out more historical accurate. With those native American's being forced on to the reservation and not allowed to leave no matter how little money they had. The law was if they left they would be shot on site. Even the ones whom tried to go get help was shot. So imagine your enemy's living in your house feeding you everything water food medicine forced to have sex and sleep same as if today with your kid-knapper abductors... I think this *Masonic movie* . really needing to be at least a 3 part. Look back at the *movie - Roots -* they took 6 months to tell that story and it was
    Mostly fictional. That just shows the USA cast system the native American have less value than Blacks. As blacks are numbered in the billions and are considered as minorities. And natives are almost extinct so truly a minority but have the highest unemployment homeless ranking . because Mason's control most jobs . police fire courts electorates etcetera

    Young man, I hope you read this….from the interview rounds from the creators of this film you have seen expressed sympathy and remorse for what is clearly the devastation of white supremacy in America. Yet as other historical facts of similar but more violent scenarios have occurred to black settlements people internalized those stories become angry and apathetic. There is a book called “slavery of another name” that goes into detail in the discovery of state sanctions that lead to slavery that exists to this day. Hopefully Scorsese’s movie will allow other stories to told.
