Killers of the Flower Moon Filming Locations!

[@jamesferris4573]

I went back and watched your video on the Osage murders again after I watched this video. I have never read the book the film was taken from but I know the stories of most of these poor unfortunate people from other studies. This atrocity, like that of black wall street in Tulsa are both stories of prejudice, greed and pure evil. It is imperative that the unvarnished truth comes out in this film as you have so diligently shown it in your video. It is interesting to see how the film industry can transform a town to another place and time with what looks like apparent ease. Although you can see through the facade when close up the camera can easily fool the eye. I am looking forward to the release of the film.

[@RhettyforHistory]

I knew of the happenings but not the individual stories until David's book. He exposed quite a few but as I walk thru cemeteries in Osage County I know there are 100's more. My hope is that families will be willing to investigate and share more. Thank you for going back and watching one of the first videos I have done on the subject.

[@Corgis175]

That will be one movie I definitely want to see, not only for the subject matter but with a director like Martin Scorsese it will be super. Great tour of the real and movie made up town.

[@RhettyforHistory]

I'm hoping they do the story justice and if there is someone that has the power to tell the story it's certainly Scorsese. Thank you for watching the video and commenting!

[@graveexplorations]

It is so amazing to see a filming locations video before the movie is released! Your excellent video and history makes me want to see the movie even more. Thank you, as always, for your OUTSTANDING work! Safe travels to you, my friend!

[@RhettyforHistory]

Thank you for watching Matt! I'm really excited to see what Scorcese does with the film and the story. I'm also glad to see this horrific story get some more exposure and I'm happy to see the Osage actively involved in it all. It sure is making it's own history as a film right here in Oklahoma.

[@ravensbrood3544]

I recall the 1959 film with Jimmy Stewart called 'THE F.B.I. STORY' There was a segment in the film that directly referred to this period in our history. Interesting vlog Rhett..👍

Yes the book mentions that movie. I watched that movie and never made the connection before. Thank you for watching!

[@patricialenaburg6553]

Absolutely magnificent content, I'm going to get the book first, and then watch the movie when it comes out. I'm always interested in history of Oklahoma, this is exciting. This is a story that needs to be told, and put out there the same as any other historical facts. Thank you Rhetty

[@RhettyforHistory]

Thank you so much for watching! I highly recommend the book. It was a great read and difficult to put it down once I started. It's sad and horrific story that needs to be told. If you read the book then be sure to check out the video I did on the final resting places and a few locations talked about in the book. After read it I had a thirst for learning more so that video is sort of a supplement for anyone who has read it.

[@whiterabbit-wo7hw]

Hey Rhett, that is amazing. It's interesting that they carry an army of different tradesmen to take care of any problem that may come up. But they think of everything. Thanks for the walk through.

[@RhettyforHistory]

You're right about that! They really do have an army of tradesmen and talented artists and set designers. So much of that looks real and like it was always there. It's so good that I was having trouble remembering what was there originally. Thank you for watching my friend!

[@KowboyUSA]

Have often marveled over how the sets for some scenes in movies look like they exist in times of the past or in other locations. Although I've seen numerous sets, this is the first time I can recall seeing one made to fit another time in history. Impressive work.

[@RhettyforHistory]

I always wondered how they did Deadwood when they filmed there. I didn't recognize anything at all but now after seeing Pawhuska I understand. Thank you for watching my friend.

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

Hi Rhetty, wow, what an awesome video. I’ve never heard of the book or the movie, but now I can’t wait to see it. I hope the room you guys stayed in makes an appearance in the movie. I am really amazed at how much time and energy and money they spent transforming those various locations and homes. Very impressive. And I’m assuming Leonardo DiCaprio must be in the movie. I watched your entire video and maybe I missed it, but I don’t remember you saying why you guys were staying in that hotel. Did you make the trip just to see the filming location? Or were you there for another reason? Very cool! 😎👍

[@RhettyforHistory]

I'm very excited to see what Scorsese does with the movie and I hope he does the story justice. The book was excellent and after reading it I had a real thirst for more. So a few years ago I set off trying to find some locations as well as final resting places. I ended up filming in multiple cemeteries and towns. I have been up in that area quite a bit. Sarah is a fan of the Pioneer woman who is also in Pawhuska. So we have been up there for that. Some time I'll have to go out to her ranch and show her studio where she records her cooking shows. But we usually eat at her restaurant when we are there. I knew of the filming taking place up there and I wanted to document it but I also had some other stories in the area that I wanted to do. There really is a lot of history in this area of the state. Time will tell on the room but it would be neat if we stayed in a room that was featured in the movie. I just found it odd that everything had been changed. And now when you look at the hotels website it looks like it has been changed back. Thank you for watching my friend!

[@kaitlynweldon894]

Very cool! I love movies from this period. I’ll be sure to watch it. Cool cars too. Did you guys know about this filming taking place or did you just happen to stumble upon it?

[@RhettyforHistory]

Oh I knew about this happening for sure. I read the book and loved it. Following the book I wanted to know more and to experience the history for myself so I started trying to find the locations as well as the final resting places. I put all of those into a video a few years ago. The buzz was around for awhile that it wad going to be a movie but we weren't quite sure who would be making it. Late 2018 and 2019 it was announced that it would be Scorcese with Deniro and Decaprio starring in it. They went around scouting locations and speaking to people. They were set to begin filming in March of 2020 but we all know how that went. Scorsese was really set on filming here in Oklahoma thanks in a large part to the Osage wishing it be done here. It has also been important that they be heard and listened to since it is their history. All of those relationships are great to see happen. Filing finally picked back up about a year later which was this year. There is a lot of history in this area of Oklahoma so I have been there quite a bit and have done a few stories. I will certainly be back for more. Thanks for watching my friend!

That was awesome! I was loving the old cars, they were really cool. And I'm definitely gonna look for that room when I see the movie. I think you're right, that room looked like they filmed in there. The old lamps and the muted colors of everything is a dead giveaway. How cool if Leo was in that exact room. You were lucky to get to see the set and check it out like that. We recently had a movie film here with Matthew McConaughey and Kurt Russell and I wanted to check out the filming but could never find where they were filming. Killers of the Flower Moon looked great from the trailer, can't wait to see it.

I did find out that the home where I was discussing how they put siding on it and then took it off is the one they are using in an explosion. They have demolished it and really done some movie magic on it to make it look like a real explosion. Thank you for watching Yvonne!

[@slowtwist]

Neat video. Thanks for taking us along on your visit. The first time I was in Pawhuska was the summer of 69. I was working a summer job counting cars for the highway dept. before college. I traveled all over the state doing this. It was busy downtown at that time because of the oil and gas and lease paperwork. I heard the the Ford dealer had a Boss 429 on display, so at about noon I went by to have a look. I drove up in a state car with the seal on the door, so the salesman thought I had a good job. He met met me at the door and I explained I was here to look at the Boss mustang and was headed back to school in the fall. He showed me around the car and was very friendly. He told me he was having a slow day so let's take one out for a spin. We left in Green Mach I with a 351 and shaker hood. When we got to downtown where the Wedge building is all the secretaries were going to lunch from that building and the courthouse. That was when I realized why he wanted to go cruising downtown. I saw a Boss sell at Barrett-Jackson a few years ago for a Million. The sticker on that one was 5800.

[@RhettyforHistory]

Those were really nice cars and I would still love to have one. Definitely one of the better body styles and of course some good power. That's certainly a unique memory you have of Pawhuska. The downtown is certainly turning around and it seems like the Pioneer woman Kickstart that. Thank you for watching!

[@ChrisJones-gx7fc]

What first peaked my interest in this movie was learning about them bringing a full-size train in for filming. The train was a steam locomotive and three coaches from the Virginia & Truckee tourist railroad in Nevada, which were temporarily relettered as Santa Fe (a railroad that once ran through Pawhuska and Fairfax), and the depot and maybe 1,000 or so feet of track were placed. I believe it'll just be for people arriving in town, like FBI agents or something, so only one or a couple scenes. It would have been awesome if the track could have been left in place, and maybe the depot too, along with any improvements made to the buildings in Pawhuska that don't ruin their authenticity. I know the track and depot were dismantled and removed, but I'm not sure about building improvements.

[@RhettyforHistory]

Some things have remained such as paint, materials and or lettering if the owners want it but some things were facades. Thank you for watching and sharing a little more about the filming there.

[@765kvline]

I was asked to build (at the last moment) a telegraph line which dipped under the eves of the depot building roof. This was done and you can see the side arm assemblies with original UPRR line conductor installed for this part of the film.

[@ramonachapman368]

Rhetty, that was so interesting! It's hard to tell what's real and what isn't. Thanks for the tour!

You're right about that. The facade where the tin shop was used to be a JC Penney's back in the day. When I was there a few years ago Sarah and I did a live and we walked the streets. That's when I noticed the tile to the entrance spelling it out. In that same live we had also unknowingly stumbled upon the Pioneer Woman's 50th birthday party. It's always interesting to visit Pawhuska.

Amazing all the work they do from painting to bringing dirt in to cover the road. They just did something similar in a small town nearby where I live. They imported a bunch of cars from the 50s for the movie and painted a bunch of buildings. Interesting fact a store owner told me that They paid a bunch of the shop owners to compensate them for lost sales income while they had to close.

[@RhettyforHistory]

Yes they do and sometimes that works out good for the shop owners. I know of one case in Pawhuska where a shop owner was pregnant. She was going to have to close the shop and would not have made any profit on her own. Being self employed there is no such thing as maternity leave. But the movie had great timing this year as it paid her for the time off she spent with her baby. Any idea what the movie is that they are working on near you?

Even though they weren’t currently filming, it was nice that they allowed you to walk the set and film. When you see all of the work they have to do, you can understand why it is so expensive to make a movie. I wonder if they have to pay the shops where they filmed and if they go back and repaint the houses? Did it look like they used any of the Pioneer Woman’s shops? Sorry for all of the questions, but this was very fascinating! I’ll have to look for the book and wait for the movie. Martin Scorsese never disappoints! Thanks again for your captivating video!

[@RhettyforHistory]

I'm a big fan of Scorsese and I hope he does this story justice. This needed a big name and budget to make it happen. They did not mess with the Pioneer Woman's end of the downtown. I think that is because of the hotels and her businesses. When I heard they were using Pawhuska I figured they would because the triangle building is pretty iconic in that downtown. As far as the smaller businesses that were out of work they were well compensated for their time off. I know of one lady who had a baby and as a self employed business owner she would not have been paid staying at home. Since they paid her she was able to spend time with her baby and have paid maternity leave. It was good timing for her. As far as the houses being painted it really depends. The houses that are occupied may want to keep the colors while others do not. Many of those houses were abandoned so it really was the perfect place filming. Hopefully this gives people some pride in their town and possible some others are enticed to move there. There is a lot of potential in the town of Fairfax just like there is in Pawhuska. They just need a little boost. Most of the down town in Fairfax is empty. The Osage have some renewed interest in the town though. They recently purchased the Maria and Marjorie Tall Chief home. It was basically abandoned and vandalized with tons of junk in it. I have a video on Sarah's channel, History Happens, that shows how bad it was. They are currently renovating it which is exciting to see, Things like that and this movie could really turn this town around. I am hoping the Tall Chief theater will be next!

I'm not saying that any of them had it easy but when I think of tribes that were persecuted the worst then I have to think of the Osage and Quapaw and then I would probably say the Souix. I know things have changed and gotten way better but they still face troubles today. Each one has their own story. What these Osage went thru is really just unbelievable. Thank you for watching.

[@765kvline]

Good professional-appearing video. Two corrections, however: Those are NOT power poles. Those are open wire exchange telephone circuits. "There are no lines going into the insulators, though." Actually, the line was run the full length of poles--as you will not the last four have had their crossarms removed after originally being set with arms and line conductor. I don't know why these were removed, but the staples of wire to the arms was a temporary measure for filming, I assume. The other poles and arms, if you examine them carefully and are observant, find the line conductors properly tied to the correct insulator pairs and transposed as would a line of the period. The insulators are all pre-1910 and the arms are well over a hundred years old, using oak and locust pins on fur treated crossarms with steel 30" span braces. Terminals on three hero poles are 1920s period.

[@RhettyforHistory]

As far as the poles they put them up for the movie and were not there before. I should have shown the cement base where thatched be seen. The wires were more of a wire you would see for fencing rather than telephone or power. You'll see these telephone piles and wires with the insulators across Oklahoma in different spots and especially along railroad tracks. The film itself will never be up that close to the poles or lines much less many of the other facades so it truly is movie magic how they do it. It's been really neat to see something like that up close and personal. Thank you for watching.

He asked us how things were going, answered questions and such. He seemed like a decent guy and joked around with us. But there was one tense moment that I was made aware of after he left the VA. He asked if we had any questions or concerns and my wife told me she was hoping/praying I did not raise my hand.
