Based on being a true story and Martin Scorsese’s reputation as a director who doesn’t care about fame or fortune, I had “Flower Moon” flagged as must see in the last quarter of 2023. I saw it today, and admired its extravagant recreation of a different time and place, Robert De Niro being Robert De Niro, and a very perceptive inclusion of Native Americans and their plight. However, Flower Moon is mostly a movie about wretched people doing wretched things (murder, murder, murder), was relentlessly evil, and was so interminable that I walked out after three hours and ten minutes because I was tired of being on the verge of throwing up. (I looked up the run time when I got home and saw that I missed “only” the last twenty minutes, but I don’t regret walking out. The small army of character actors in Flower Moon was fun to watch, but Leonardo Dicaprio had a comical frown plastered on his middle-aged face for 95% of his time on screen. Flower Moon is an old-fashioned “Major Motion Picture” that tries hard, but again, I fled when I had had enough.

Wonderful performances from all; I was particularly taken with the actress who played Mollie's older sister, Anna. Everyone was giving authentic, lived-in performances. DiCaprio, excellent, as always. DeNiro, chilling. Lily Gladstone ... my goodness. As you said, what an empathetic performance. I was transfixed to her the entire time and, my anxiety was elevated constantly that something else was going to happen to her and her family. She made me feel so completely HORRIBLE about what was going on to her and her folks and people. My gosh. Can't wait to watch it again. I have minor nitpicks here & there. For instance, I wasn't AS seeped into the story for the middle hour as much as I was riveted to the 1st hour, or on egg shells for the 3rd hour. But overall, high quality cinema.

The pace worked for me perfectly & I didn't feel bored one bit despite feeling the run time by the end of the film.

Saw it yesterday and I give it a 4.5/5. I’m native (Choctaw) so I feel like I kind of had to see it. I’m reading the 📕 currently and I think Scorsese did this story justice. Every cent of the $200 million budget is put on screen (of course $30 million of that went to DiCaprio) in a truly epic fashion. Lily Gladstone is AMAZING. DeNiro has charisma in the most evil form. DiCaprio plays arguably the dumbest character in his entire career. In regards to the runtime it was earned, it didn’t feel like 3.5 hours but I think “The Irishman” paced a lil faster (maybe that’s due to it being a story spanning 50 years and stuff in that happens in a more entertaining fashion whereas in this you’re just getting sucker punched). Rightfully so it angers you and I can see certain people (especially natives and Osage members) having to step out of the theater just to breathe. The violence in here doesn’t feel gratuitous it’s brutal in the most truthful way (this is a story never in any history books and you as the audience need to see what’s happened to these people). I’m glad I saw this on the big screen because there just is an intimacy in watching this on a big screen, having your phone off and your attention is entirely focused on what’s on the big screen. Which is why I hate that some people (my mother doesn’t wanna see it because of just the subject and if she does watch it it’ll most likely be at home) are gonna be watching at home but are gonna pause, browse on their 📱, not have their full attention on it.

Honestly, the more I hear and learn of the Osage and their story, the more compelled I am to read the novel beforehand. Coincidently, did the exact same when Shutter Island came out, and was utterly satisfied with the literary skill and tact of the story telling and ultimate reveal and payoff of the plot; felt equally entertained with Scorsese's visual adaptation, nothing lost whatsover....given how much the element of surprise plays a part in that story, line a true testament to an American cinematic icons mastery of his medium! With that being said, a part of me aches, that save for the fateful Stack Edwards, and or the liberal use of the nword throughout his work, Mr. Scorsese has never identified with or felt particularly inspired or attracted enough by any African American historical contribution to want to bring anything of substance to life as only he could.

Loved. It. Masterpiece. Though, it is so damn depressing. The ending I thought was incredibly effective.

As someone else mentioned, I think it’s going to be Oppenheimer v. Flower Moon. I think Oppenheimer would win due to the Hollywood politics (?) (Nolan has never won), but I think this film is quite a bit more powerful emotionally-speaking. More honest too.

Comparing this to the masterpiece that is Heaven's Gate sets the bar of expectation very high.

Interesting you brought up “Heaven’s Gate” and “Giant.” I rewatched those this weekend ahead of it. Figured I’d throw in “Once Upon a Time in America” before I go see “Killers.” Also, to add to your point, just 10 months ago, people were lining up for Avatar 2, a 3 hour 15 minute movie that’s mainly around rushing water. Unless everyone suddenly developed a urological problem since then, it seems the caterwauling about the runtime is a tad insincere.

LOTS of Goodfellas parallels to be sure - in style and substance....I'll need to see it again to confirm but there's a scene where Henry Roan (Molly's first husband) comes to a dinner party where DiCaprio just announced Molly is pregnant, and Roan shakes her hand and then DiCaprio's - and the angle of the shot + DiCaprio's dismissive half-gesture over the shoulder handshake seemed identical to Ray Liotta shaking that guy Bruce's hand (guy who lives across the street from Karen) at the marina club in Goodfellas....Which would make sense narratively as in both cases the males' egos were threatened by the other male...I noticed it immediately, wonder if anyone else did...You see these movies often enough and these things just pop I guess!

I've always been interested in this story since I saw a little bit about it The FBI story starring James Stewart surprised it took so long to get made

What’s the word or phrase Alonzo uses at 2:39? It’s in this sentence: “These are not necessarily the most competent criminals in the world, and so there’s a bit of _______ job going on here … .” Thanks in advance!

Is no one going to mention the gurning cameo from Brendan Frazer. Chewed the scenery so hard he left bite marks.

This is a movie about the killing of Native Americans in Oklahoma. We get so little press about our horrible history it's enough to just get it on screen. Gladstone is not the only great Indian acting in this movie. Give credit to the whole Osage Nation who are not professional actors but sincere enough to portray their story to the world. Most people don't know these histories even tho they're there if people WANT TO KNOW and get out of their comfort zone. This is not about the past it's still going on today. It's part of American society embedded in its original structure.

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, Elizabeth. And yes, you're right, the Osage cast brings so much depth to the story.

I am normally very aligned with your reviews, but this time as much as I liked the movie, I found it frustrating that the characters were just driving the plot, and you don't really understand each of their motivations. I think there could be so much interesting tension between Ernest and Mollie in how they live as predator and prey, yet seem to genuinely love each other. Unfortunately, this tension was not fully explored.
@BreakfastAllDay Жыл бұрын
That's an interesting point. There's a quite a bit of tension there, but the movie has so much else to get its arms around.
