What did you think of the ending?
Seems like they got off light when considering the crimes they committed
Ending sucked ass
@@fsp394 coulda been better tbh. A lot of buildup and doesn’t deliver as hard as it should
@@Jpro2000That’s what happened. It’s not a thriller
@@SuperWhofan1 that’s true. But idk I think I would rather see the aftermath then see narrators say it. I thought that stage scene was weird and random
That final shot stuck with me so hard. To see the transition from the past to the present day with that dance of the Osage people. That shot was just amazing.
Honestly even if those devils didn’t faced justice I’m happy that they couldn’t get rid of the Osage people
The ending with Martin Scorsese himself reading out what happened to the real life characters was a really classy way of ending the film
I burst in tears when I saw Martin.
Felt like this is him ending his career on such a high note.
@@horizoniki hopefully it isn’t and he’s got another few in him. Certainly felt that way though, you’re right
@@horizonikiI doubt it…he’s still relevant and as long as he is so..he’ll probably keep making films to the day he dies
Superb!
I disagree..The whole radio thing was jarring and unnecessary ..End with her walking out and the pow wow
was a beautiful film. very thoughtful, thrilling and telling. A lot was put into the 3 and a half hours but you don’t feel it. The crime kept getting worse. AND not to mention the Tulsa massacre, Martin Scorsese did a GREAT job!
Great for a laugh.
i did feel it to be too long though.
@@chrillex91 i did little research about the book, just little because i would prefer to know about the movie as little as possible. so, somewhat i know the general conflict of it specially for this movie.
if they want for 4 hours of this quiet and slow movie, they might want to consider to have intermission or turn in to mini series (but if they want to turn this into series, they need to pick up the pace. man, slow pace really feel much more slower if you watch at home).
Just watched the movie and I gotta say the story telling and character development is off the charts. By the end of the movie you can visually see Ernest conflicted especially when trying to tell the truth to Molly. This movie and Oppenheimer are the front runners for me for movie of the year by FAR. I would’ve liked to see the alternate screenplay focusing on the story as a total western.
Lets be honest here, this film blows Oppenheimer out of the water.
@@TracyWerner4Prezoh definitely. I said the same thing
@@TracyWerner4PrezNah Oppenheimer still wins.
Disappointed with how much of Tom White's stuff was cut from the book and given to that snake Ernest.
@@travisspazz1624he’s not a snake, he’s a coyote 😊
@@travisspazz1624I personally preferred having less of the FBI focus because the book plays them up to be more heroic and white savior-y. Like yeah they solved the main root of the crime, but not only did it take them an embarrassing amount of time, a lot of other deaths were just forgotten and never investigated
I was just sitting there with my jaw dropped the entire movie!! Top notch masterpiece!!
The Indians were funny.
I wouldn’t go that far at all, jaw dropped 😂
Between Tulsa and the tragedy of the Osage, a lot of killers never saw justice in Oklahoma. Prayers with the dead.
True to this day
EXAAAAAAACTLY!!!😡
Being native (Choctaw and Cherokee) this movie was truly a masterpiece and heartbreaking because of accuracy of what happened. Even showing that white men were purposely trying to marry Osage women to get the oil money... even now having white ancestry is a sore spot for many who are descendants of the Osage tribe because they understand much of this mixing was done through manipulation and rape of women
I’m part Osage and this movie hit me hard. I did not know the history of that side of my lineage. And to understand now that I am most likely a product of those horrible things depicted. Just… fuck
@@Reebonics😭 can't imagine how that feels. Many people are victims or products of messed up stuff from evil. Often boils down to $ or power. It's horrible.
Not sure if happens, Mollie Burkhart's in-law disown nor acknowledge their grandchildren. Even Mollie's mom disown her because of white husband. The drunk sister was favorite child.
It wasn't "white men" It was freemasons. Any white man who is not a freemason knows exactly how the Osage were treated. Awful creatures.
there is no such thing as white ancestry
More movies need to be made like this about what was done to the sweet, nature-loving Native Americans. We were lied to in grade school; they covered things up and miseducated us.
And today they are attempting to retell and rewrite the history surrounding slavery.
@@bangoashremember🤔 these are white people who believe they are bigger than God himself
@@ignoranceisnotatrend4669what do u get this from? Every group of people have those in power who control the majority. That life. Attributing this to just “white people” is racist and very oblivious of u
Eh they also practiced cannibalism. Don’t leave that out of the “loving” nature of the natives
Still waiting for the movie of the my Lai massacre in Vietnam in 1968.
Lily will win an Oscar. I can feel it ❤
I liked it, but damn they should have made it a mini series because it was too dang long. I started falling asleep by the time the FBI agents were introduced. Lily Gladstone did a phenomenal job.
I’m so glad they changed the script because making the movie a mystery movie about the beginning of the FBI would’v been to predictable and cliché.
Why does it seem like we are trying to soften Decaprio's character by emphasizing that he really loved her? That is not love! Just because he keeps saying he loves her doesn't make it so.
Exactly. If he truly loved her he wouldn’t have killed her family and then tried to kill her. He’s a psychopath.
@@puncake8945 I really hate it when they try to assign a redeeming quality to a despicable person.
@@nastee10 exactly wtf. If this were a woman murdering her husband’s family for money you bet she wouldn’t have gotten any redeeming qualities, disgusting. I hated the “I love her” part.
Mollies granddaughter told Scorsese that Earnest actually loved Mollie. It was a sick relationship but real and still happens in America everyday. Money corrupts everyone’s morals
DiCaprio is in his prime, ive never felt more conflicted about an individual and how he treated his loved ones
As for DeNiro, jesus christ what a lecherous viper of a performance in Bill Hale.
This story was one I needed to hear, it makes you think of those even today mistreating indigenous groups of people, as far as how Apartheid continues in Palestine today
Look up dr shiva guys got a lot to say
I feel bad because much like Tulsa, I learned nothing of these events until I became an adult. I'm eager to now read the book.
Doesn't need an explanation . Very clear they were all tried and sentenced . Wife remarried and died of diabetes at 50 .
The scene with B. Hale engages in a 32nd degree ° freemason ceremony disciplining his nephew was chilling, in Ernest...
Given that much of the audience came to know this story through the book, documentaries, or podcasts, the radio theatre bit (podcasts of the early 20th century) seemed fitting.
Did the radio show in 'Killers of the Flower Moon' happen in real life? In his book, Grann explains that in 1932, the FBI began working with radio program “The Lucky Strike Hour” to dramatize its cases. One of the first episodes was based on the Osage Nation murders.
Truly a masterpiece
I would like to ask people who are complaining about the time of the movie if they know that no one have to see it on the cinema? or... if they read a single book in their entire life?
The radio show ending was brilliant. Still in a period setting, it presented a recap in a very unique and creative way. With all white actors and slick sound effects, a completely different perspective of the same story.
I understood that but found it jarring and trite..End with the focus totally on the Osage- Molly walking out on Ernest and the pow wow..
What ever the politics, this is a great movie. But of great importance, it’s finally shown how Native Americans can been perceived and treated in this country. It’s about time!
I loved this movie from beginning to end.
😢 I'm both glad and emotional the release of this film was made. The book is quite something to read too, but tut his film nails it.
Love that Scorsese himself reads Mollie's declaration at the end. Feels like a nice way of actually paying respect to the story.
I never felt so helpless and crippled in a movie.
Real long film. But very good film, loved the last hour
Dude it’s been so long since I’ve seen a film this good in theater wow held my piss in the whole time didn’t wana miss a beat
Oscar worthy
LOL
What is the Osage written language say at the end of the movie, before the credits?
One thing that made me sad about the beginning, was how the sudden wealth changed the native people.
I think, the "live radio show" epilogue should have been a post credit scene. Molly standing up and leaving without a word after Ernest lied to her would have made a more impactful ending to the movie in my opinion. But other than that I have zero complains. It is a movie with phenomenal writing, directing and acting about a little know and really upsetting part of America's history and definitely worth a watch.
Did he really lie to her? He really didn’t know what was in those shots. He wasn’t a physician or a scientist. He even drank it himself.
@@Clokes_ He at least wasn't honest with her. If I remember correctly, she asked him if he had only given her insulin, and he said yes. That was a lie. But to be fair, maybe I'm misremembering her exact words, or maybe it's a translation issue; I watched the movie with a German dub. I have to rewatch the movie in English once it's available as a blu-ray or stream to be sure whether his "yes" was definitely a lie or still in some kind of gray area.
@@ObservableObserver Who knows? I’m just going on from what I saw from the movie. The real Ernest Burkhart might’ve known.
@@Clokes_ Yeah, I was specifically talking about the movie.
I agree..End with the focus totally on the Osage- Molly leaving Ernest and the Pow Wow..After three and a half hours I don't think anyone would have stuck around for a post credit radio scene..I know the lucky strike radio broadcasts were a big part of the book but it was jarring and trite in the film
I wonder who they had in mind for Ernest if DeCaprio took the role of White instead.
Jesus Christ, I was in the theater just now sweating!! This is SICK. 5⭐️ movie
Mollie is an amazing beauty!
most of the time like bruce lee movie fist of fury and flower moon its about deep oppresion in a BIG WAY THAT IS MIND BOGGLING TO THE WEST BECAUSE OF TWISTED WORDS
The book concentrated on the investigation, creation of the FBI, the film concentrated on the people and characters , both good , and I think Leo DiCaprio was at his best in this movie .
My movie of the year
It was a solid scorsese movie. It was a great story but it's still basically a gangster movie. However it was a great movie for how long it was. Scorsese is too proud to go to the mini series format but this story I think would be an amazing 10 episode series.
Yes, there is a lot more to this story especially the Osage county probate court… and the state of Oklahoma attorney general office … and much much more… every Osage family was affected in someway clear up to the present; yes, a good long mini series
Wow. Thanks for explaining it to me. I would have never figured it out
Ernest was way too stupid, but to be honest, he was naive, he trusted his uncle too much, unfortanely that costed him his life...
Ultimate Justice is in the hands of God so Hale and the others are answering for their crimes
I loved the movie, some scenes I still need help with. Why did Ernest Burkhart get a paddle from his uncle, William Hale? Something to do with Grande Mason?
True hurts love this story so sad
Brendan’s role was so random and pointless, thought he’d have a bigger role.
This movie was so good
I felt lost this whole film....
always knew DiCaprio was hired to play the FBI character but then changed to the earnest one.
3.5 hrs of which could've been explained in 80mins.
Thee Wicked makes movies of thier deeds and we are entertained.
The ending was a Freemason society hearing a story of how their predecessors have ended up succeeding in their darkened plans.
Give everything away why don't ya.
GREAT MOVIE👏👏👏
The ending was a cop out. If it wasn't Martin people would be up in arms. The ending was horrendous
Great acting and cinematography…too many characters and story arch’s which is why it’s so long….I’m sure the book covers everything in detail
I will be watching it a second and third time…
I can see this being nominated for Best Picture…best Actress….director….set design and costume..also a nod for cinematography
Conflicted by the storytelling. In short, oppression and colonizers knows no boundaries.
How can Ernest be so dim witted?
The actors, of course, are convincing and amazing, but the story itself is lacking a bit due to the Scorsese flair that typically works but not so much for this movie. 3/5
Rather than have someone explain the end of the move to you, how about just reading the book and get the real story?
Takes longer
Great story but movie is too long , 3.5 hrs has overcooked it, and no breaks in cinemas these days
Why did all the Osage women marry white men if the white men were all murdering them? What were the Osage men doing at this time?
It's not like people were suddenly murdered the day after getting married. They slowly started ramping up. One person dies, it's an accident. Two people dies, tragic. Three people die, that's unlucky. Four people die, now that's getting suspicious. By the time everyone figures something's wrong, a bunch of people have died already.
The genocide of native Americans is just as subtle as everything else the US does. To this day the entire tribes keep fading to gambling, alcohol and drug addiction.
$200 Million Dollar Budget!!!!
I had to say it out loud to myself too. Heck, I even had to scroll back to hear it again. What a mind-bogling, ridiculas amount of money. Because they can. IF it indeed was 200 million. Well, it won't be far of the mark. Time will tell.
This was the FBI's first case.
Moral of the story…don’t go to Oklahoma!
More like don’t trust white people remember the Tulsa massacre also happened in Oklahoma
Mollys the hero.
I am Osage. And a huge Leo DiCaprio fan.
Best part of the movie was Todd from breaking bad he’s my new Leo DiCaprio ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ sorry Leo.
This movie was great i liked it
What's up with the annoying music overlay...
If you watched the movie, why do you need the ending explained, and if it needs to be explained, why watch? Real life is not a movie.
Warning. This video has serious spoilers!
Tom White was the real hero of the story, the movie failed to capture this..
Dude, this was not about Heroes. It was about tragedy and sorrow, betrayal. Yeah, Tom White was pivotal and in the book it is very well acknowledged but really, did you want a Detective movie, seeing the board with pins and the suspects pictures with strings interconnecting them? We’ve seen that.
In none of his movies where crimes are committed and solved by the law enforcement, very little is seen of it (except Departed because .. well it’s a duplicitous story). We never knew how did the FBI caught Henry Hill either.
It’s a different perspective. There are no heroes in this movie. This one is not about that.
@@rawpower12xu yes there is a hero in the movie his name's Tom White the movie didn't capture it just like I said
@@rawpower12xu blah blah blah you're boring don't call me dude dude
I thought with what screen time Tom White was given in this movie they captured the importance of him really well.
@horizoniki No, several times in the book had he given up, it would have been over
The ending doesn't need to be explained.
This video says nothing about the ending
I really wish they'd have made it a 2 hour movie. It just dragged on and on and on.
Why does this generation have to "explain" everything?
You couldn't pay me to watch a movie with Robert Dinero in. I will read the book though.
What a sad life you must lead then because you’re missing out on a massive amount of film performances that are amongst the greatest of all-time. Not to mention missing out on seeing so many of the best movies ever made. I can never imagine thinking politics is worth robbing yourself of the pleasure of great art.
@@Kingofsweaters Bobby boy is an overrated actor.
@@Kingofsweaters Not sad at all. I rather read the book . Love how people speculate and think they know something while knowing absolutely nothing.
It was ok.
If you want to see this movie you must wear a diaper! It lasts 3h26min !!
Well dam that's like 4 movies
Totally worth it! (Just saw it)
Saw it on opening day and made it through beginning to end with no issues.
White grandpa problems here
@@horizoniki Duh! It was even worst when I was 21 ... good active kidneys.
Millennial presumes wrong!
only gave blackie 1.50$ lmao
Why didn't you simply post "Multiple continual Spoiler(s) Alerts"??? FYI, I saw the movie, but you ruined it for many who haven't.
What was Ernest injecting her with if not insulin, because she was getting healthier either way.
@@aindi747 damn they said all that in the movie? I missed that
The italian subtitles I saw it in said heroin..
This video could have been 2 minutes
I would've preferred title cards at the end playing over an Indian chant.
How have people already watching this movie when it's literally coming out today in theaters 10/20/2023
Maybe it's just my region
Oklahoma
Think it was good, but nothing like gangs of New York
I really didn’t like the ending of this movie.
Woody Allen ending
The radio show really happened
This movie was about the typical white man. got it.
Love story? There is no love when you marry someone and then conspire to not only murder them but thier family as well. Love story😂
Movie is too long
Boring movie, cant believe ppl liked it...
After 3.5hrs the conclusion of the film left me quite upset. Nevertheless I was relieved when it finally concluded. It was a decent film but not something I’d suggest to the casual movie goer. 7/10
Yeah that was the goal. Are we supposed to feel content that this story was largely untold for so long??
7 out of 10? In your opinion what’s an 8 then?
This is how Disney is killing cinema. A raw, genuine and a pretty regular movie is considered “hardcore” these days.
20 years and some ago cinema was made out of movies like this.
I didn't like the lucky strike radio broadcast (which was in the book) at all..End with the focus totally on the Osage- Molly leaving Ernest and the Pow Wow
I dead ass fell asleep halfway through this movie 😂😂
Then go see
Spider man: j*rking off at home
😂😂😂I know it’s like 4 hours
6 ppl walked out in the movie... I was watching the watch as much as the screen. The cuts were weird... And drama moved slower than a sleeping cheetah. After 2 hrs i checked the watch and saw only 1 hr had passed.
I think bringing back intermissions for movies of certain lengths. It would help keep attention and allow a break.
@@Grey-Wino389i know ritht
Just explain the ending and get it over with 😂
Too long too old
Mid film tbh its alright
I haven't even seen it but let me guess - White Man Bad. How original.
Its more complex than that but like you said. But if thats your expectation: dont bother watching it.
Well it’s a true story about white men manipulating and cheating to get what they want 😂
ur white arent u? cant expect u to understand shit
White Man Bad is true for the history of the world, but keep crying bitch boy
It's just the truth bro...the plain truth.
Boring movie. Don’t watch it. Definitely boring people commenting
Will someone please tell Martin Scorsese that movies can be less than 3 hours long. It’s ok to let some scenes hit the cutting room floor. For the love of god, seeing a movie is an escape, not a chore
Don’t watch it then? Just because you have a bad attention span doesn’t mean everyone does
Low level thinking.
Yeah nah😂
The longer the merrier ❤
The guy is 80 years old, he is the director and he doesn’t have many left in him. He made the movie he wanted to make and it’s excellent.
