Notes

My quick rating - 7.8/10. This flick transports you to 1920s Oklahoma, where the discovery of oil beneath Osage Nation land sets off a chain of sinister events. Directed with meticulous attention to detail by the incredible Martin Scorsese, this period piece is a visual feast, immersing you in the rich tapestry of the era. One of the most striking aspects is the stunning visuals. The cinematography and production design seamlessly evoke the time period, capturing the essence of Oklahoma in the 1920s with breathtaking authenticity. Every frame feels like a window into the past, thanks to the commitment to historical accuracy. But beyond its aesthetic appeal, the film boasts exceptional acting performances that elevate the storytelling to new heights. Led by Leonardo DiCaprio, the cast delivers powerful and nuanced portrayals of their characters, breathing life into this dark chapter of American history. However, it's Lily Gladstone who steals the spotlight with her captivating performance, deserving of strong consideration for Best Actress accolades and my shoe in choice as the winner. At its core, "Killers of the Flower Moon" is a gripping tale of mystery and intrigue, woven together with expert precision. As the FBI unravels the sinister plot behind the murders of the Osage people, the film delves into themes of justice, greed, and the human capacity for both good and evil. It's a thought-provoking journey that leaves you questioning the moral ambiguity of the world around you. I thought it was a cinematic triumph that excels on multiple fronts. From its breathtaking visuals to its powerhouse performances, it's a film that demands to be seen and celebrated. With its well-woven story and profound thematic depth, it's sure to leave a lasting impression and spark important conversations about the past and its reverberations in the present. I know I actually searched for this one just to check into the history since I don't recall learning about it previously.
