Martin Scorsese Thanks The Osage Nation For ‘Killers Of The Flower Moon’: “Without Them It Would Not Be The Picture You See Today” – DGA Awards


Martin Scorsese Thanks The Osage Nation For 'Killers Of The Flower Moon': "Without Them It Would Not Be The Picture You See Today"

Killers of the Flower Moo n is based on the real-life systematic murders of members of the oil-rich Osage Nation for their money, starring Oscar nominated Lily Gladstone as Mollie Burkhart and Leonardo DiCaprio as her devious husband Ernest. Scorsese said that his experience working with the beautiful scenery of Oklahoma was new to him, too, and he credited his “unrelenting” cast and crew with not only withstanding the 105 degree heat wearing three-piece suits and blankets, but for helping to recreate and capture the exteriors of such a landscape. “I’m a New Yorker, so for me to have made a picture in Oklahoma, the land and the light… For me an exterior shot is a long hallway with a lightbulb,” Scorsese said as the audience laughed.
