    I'm glad to hear that Lily Gladstone is great in the movie. This seems like a great breakout role with international acclaim for her. The Wolf of Wall Street had Margor Robbie in her breakout role, Killers Of The Flower Moon will do the same for Lily

      I'm not entirely certain that "The Wolf of Wall Street" was Robbie's breakout role. It got her attention, definitely, but I usually forget she was in it. It seems like her subsequent work, playing "Harley Quinn" and then her Oscar nominations, is what catapulted her to stardom.
      (and after appearing in two of the biggest financial and critical bombs of last fall, we'll see how long that lasts....)
      I see people in the thread here implying that Gladstone will be hampered for not being white. I'm not denying the lingering specter of racism in our culture, but just in the last five years the cinema/television world has changed, there are many non-white actresses breaking through and doing excellent work. I don't see why that *has to be* an unequivocal barrier for her, as far as being a working actress.
      I hate to say it, but it's likely the fact that she's not traditionally beautiful, that's what will likely prevent her from being "a star". But honestly who cares? Stardom is glib and nearly *always* transitory. I find the focus on "stardom" to be generally toxic, it's a despicable metric. Depending on her range as an actress, the exposure from this film could result in Gladstone working on various projects into old age. Maybe not as a "star", but surely playing a variety of character roles.
      It's up to her, really. Can't wait to see what she does with this role. In the trailer she's remarkably powerful in just reaction shots. That bodes well.

      TOTALLY AGREE! De Niro - one of THE most influential actors ever, certainly since the 70s - deserves as many Oscars as they can give him. This stuff doesn't mean anything, but he is most definitely a guy who should be a record holder. When Waltz won for "Django", I was shocked, I think De Niro was shocked too. No offense to Christoph Waltz, but that should have been Bobby D's third Oscar, most definitely.

    From the film's synopsis, I would prefer to see more Native American cast involved not as a background but as actual characters to balance out the main cast. As you mentioned, the presence of a character played by Lily Gladstone is less developed, perpetuating an old trope about Native American women in films. Glad the story was taken on a big screen, at least.

      A struggle that’s very ours and it’s not to be put out there for people to “be in our shoes” for the movie and then continue their life of privilege. I think it’s still keeps outsiders from appropriating and feel like they understand when they just cant.

I'm so fortunate and blessed that my linage wasn't directly affected. The wolves probably numbered in the thousands. There is great tragedy in this, but there is also great hope.

Regardless of what actually happens in the film, I've heard the ending will be creatively somewhat unconventional in how it presents the information. The accuracy of the events depicted in the film is irrelevant to this topic, what is being discussed regarding the ending is the presentation choices, not the plot

There are lots of his movies I don't think much of (especially post Casino), and lots of his movies are among my top faves, but none of those movies have changed for me upon repeated viewings. In fact I just watched half of Bringing Out The Dead recently and it's just a lousy as it was in the 90s! lol. Casino STILL has mixed reviews. PS: The mixed reviews were mostly about rehashing Goodfellas, which is fair. Didn't bother me, but I can see where that would be someone's gripe.

He uses the music over the final monologue to sell the content of the monologue, that something was lost by the regulation of sin city by the banks. Yeah, maybe if you were there, but it means absolutely nothing to the rest of us. The montage at the end of Babylon is the same kind of a fail (but actually it doesn't come across as a fail in Casino, because of the feeling contained in the music, but it's tacky to appropriate the power of that music, just as Kim Novak was right to complain about the use of Vertigo's Love Theme in the ten years later forgotten movie, The Artist).

Those films didn’t win Screenplay so I’m 50/50 predicting this for a win or not. If I can see anything else winning Adapted Screenplay it would be Oppenheimer. The recent trailer has a lot of conversation scenes focusing on the urgency of the Trinity Test and maybe Nolan has a chance to win an Oscar in that category.

      My personal theory is that, after Trump's election in 2016, the kinds of people who see Scorsese's films maybe (?) weren't feeling a narrative revolving around faith. Faith is too often associated with conservatism, for better or worse.
      Andrew Garfield's performance is mind-bogglingly powerful and when he WAS nominated that year but for "Hacksaw Ridge", it was so disappointing. Garfield went to places film actors don't usually go to in "Silence". It really breaks my heart how overlooked it was. I'm heartened to consistently see people online sticking up for it though.

I understand he's part of this EG Marshall, Jerry Orbach, Chishu Ryu-school of "subtle stone face acting", and I understand the place for that. I suppose I just don't understand the acclaim.
    I just personally haven't seen the range enough in Plemons' work to justify the admiration I see. He plays....him. Which is fine, you can count on that and that's fine. But the actors of his generation who I feel are legitimately great actors, Michael Fassbender, Tom Hardy, James McAvoy, those guys DO have range. I just don't see Plemons anywhere _close_ to those guys.

    The 'weirdly Lynchian' room where DeNiro gives DiCaprio a beating was full of freemason imagery and symbolism. The two pillars at the center, checkered floor, and a bunch of 'G's and square+compass engravings. Hale also says in that scene that he is a 32nd degree freemason and it really stood out to me how Scorsese included the fact that Hale was a freemason of the highest degree and why he decided to do so. The movie is not only filled with traditional Osage and then also Catholic imagery and depiction of rituals, but has this one short quick scene entirely set in a masonic room where the main villain reveals he is a 32nd degree mason, and then it is never brought up again (as far as I noticed).

    From the book, Molly didnt think that her husband had anything to do with it. Not even after she escaped death. So no, she had no idea of the wolves. The Osage didnt even know why they were targeted. A number of the murders went un noticed even by the FBI until after the trial. Others were killed in a non direct murderous fashion. Also one of the wolves was the person conducting the autopsy. Read the book before you complain about the movie. Molly had no forsight until it was explained to her what was happening. She took noticed more about the white supremacy she encountered & the sly racism hurled her way. She was rich with black and white severants. White folks didnt take kindly to her hiring white severants. As the Murders hit closer to home. She withdrew from society. Out of fear and reasonable paranoia. But she never came close to realizing her husband and sister's husband were the killers.

    Also after reading that the violence was dialed down (mollie was being poisoned w arsenic etc.) just so that ernest can have this weird grey area about love when it was just insane abuse puts a sour taste in my mouth.

On the crow creek sioux Indian reservation of SD half a northwest of the town stephan. In a long narrow valley just below the hilly prairie land country along the beautiful Missouri River. A large encampment over sixty to eighty hunkpati Dakota sioux people still definitely living on Cheney rush encampment. It actually trigger started the Buffalo County war or the Great war for the northern part of the reservation! In the spring of 1931 the continued harassment by the local towns people and the ranchers in the northern part of the reservation! During the time of the sooner policy act the reservation land take over of the better half of the 20th century! On the morning of a hot summer day of August 1931 the Dakota sioux Indian men left for a hunting trip on the other side of the reservation. Leaving their entire families and young pregnant young ladies at the Cheney rush encampment site. Later on the same day a large party of over hundred American civilians intruders arrived there with guns and rifles very unannounced! They seriously wanted to take away the Dakota sioux Indian people's traditional Buffalo hunting grounds and our rich fertile farm lands along the beautiful Missouri River! The guilty murderous intruders would brutal kill the entire Dakota sioux Indian people poor innocent lives there! The elders were young children at the time saw an witness the tragedy unfolded there will hiding a safe distance away. Many years later they told the story well crying and wipt of the very sad brutal Cheney rush massacre, the second sand creek massacre of 1864! The only tragic massacre in the us history someone tried to cover up the evidence that it never happened there! There's no memorial site because of the forgotten fallen Dakota sioux Indian people who wrongfully slaughtered there! The American intruders built a huge fire an burned the poor Dakota sioux Indian bodies to burned ashes remains! Then they moved the burned ashes remains north to the two small rolling hills of the 1930s site! The one hill on the left side. The children want an told everyone on the reservation what happened to their own Dakota sioux Indian encampment who were innocent murdered there! The Dakota sioux Indian men also heard the very sad tragic story after returning from a hunting trip! The Dakota sioux Indian men's hearts were broken from their loved ones who were wrongfully brutality murdered at the Cheney rush massacre site! The very next day over three hundred angered Dakota sioux Indian warriors were coming ready to fight against the American guilty murderous intruders! On the prairie land country along near the massacre site the American civilians would face the great very impressive enemy warriors numbers coming from a great distance away! The American civilians intruders were surprised to see so many more warriors were arriving there! Iron Nation's kul wicasa oyate Lakota sioux Indian warriors probably may have assisted in the fierce fighting to! In the running battle into a full retreat probably more Americans civilians were killed in the fierce fighting battlefield! Dust would rise up from the horses hooves made a great impressive very intense bloody conflict battlefield scene! In the sioux warriors favor the rest of the defeated wounded weakened American murderous intruders escaped or fled back across the reservation border lands! To their own ranches and towns never wanting to take back the hunkpati Dakota sioux people's traditional reservation Buffalo hunting grounds and our rich fertile farm lands along the beautiful Missouri River. The last forgotten tragedy of the 20th century and the last brave Dakota and Lakota sioux warriors true victory song of the hot summers days on August of 1931! The last great sioux victory after the little bighorn victory June 25,1876 the retribution for the poor lost innocent murdered lives at the brutal Cheney rush massacre site! Just because the wounded knee massacre of 1890 had ended doesn't mean the brutal killings wouldn't stop there! It just moved to another place! The Osage Indian murders an the Cheney rush bloody conflict are two different stories of the early twenty century! The Cheney rush massacre victory site is still there today half a mile northwest from the town stephan SD along the highway to the capital of Pierre SD! The only Dakota sioux Indian bloody conflict east of the beautiful Missouri River of South Dakota! Many decades after the Indian Wars had ended! My historical information for today. Have a great fabulous wonderful day.
