See Osage Indians. Native Americans 1930s Oklahoma [colorized rare film]

[@Tulsa_Films]

Starting around 11:30 in film, are splendid candid close ups of Pawhuska business people and civic leaders. Anyone know more about these historical figures.

The guy in the glasses looks like William Hale "Jim" ??? .

[@BaileyWhiteSail]

This has been a pleasure to watch for my family. My great grandfather, Frank McCoy, is shown there as a young man, as is his business partner. I am amazed to see someone added a title of his first name to the film as well. Where did you find these clips? Thank you so much for making this video.

Killers of the Flower Moon. Evil and Greedy!

[@Aight7]

It's incredible how detailed scorsese is in his movie... It looks like an extension of killers of the flower moon...

[@Wierdo_g]

Duh.. he's one of the greatest directors of all time

[@gailobrien9380]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@afsanarosebd]

Thank you for sharing this film. Such a beautiful people that loved spending time with their family and children. My favorite part is the beginning of this film. Seeing the rolling hills and green grass with the children playing in the red dirt creek. It reminds me of my childhood and spending time with my family in the 70’s. I live on the county line of Tulsa and Osage counties in Sand Springs. My great grandfather wore suits everyday just like in the film until the day he died in the 1980’s. The beginning of the film reminds me of one of our family reunions. It is kindness and love of family that I see in this film.

Thank you Scorsese From Australia. We needed to know this History.

The Osage seem like a lovely people. What happened to them is heartbreaking

[@Bonzi_Buddy]

It was hilarious.

[@dmcmac9619]

Just saw the movie yesterday and found it profound and deeply moving. I shared your beautiful video on my fb.

I completely agree. My favorite part is the beginning of the film seeing the children playing in the red dirt creek.

Thank you for posting this video. My mom was born in Ponca City OK in 1934. So seeing this video gave me a glimpse of where and how she grew up. Love you Mom!!❤

[@Tulsa_Films]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@michelebella677]

Love the little girl doing the Charleston at 4:01. It’s great to see these videos from such a long time ago. It’s only 40 something years before I was born but now it’s almost 100. To think, that even the little babies in this footage aren’t even around anymore. I saw Killers of the Flower Moon last night. It just so happens that I’m studying Native American culture in my Cultural Anthropology class as well. Such a sad story that these wonderful people were taken advantage of simply because of their heritage. I wonder what this town looks like now.

[@Tulsa_Films]

Thanks for your great comments

[@tintincruz8660]

Lol that's the equivalent of seeing someone do the fortnite dance one hundred years in 3023 on a holographic phone 😭💀

[@oBabybbyuuuu]

Some of these babies and children may be alive, in their 90s or approaching 100, maybe. It's crazy to think that Clint Eastwood, for example, was already alive at that time, anyone who grew up at that time saw a lot of things

[@rollandjoeseph]

I love the girl dancing too, she was good!

[@Auntkekebaby]

Great footage. The fashion looks more like 1920s

[@frankfrankly1366]

Here after watching Killers of the Flower Moon

[@Tulsa_Films]

what did you think of movie?

[@gemmagemma-wx2bs]

@@Tulsa_Films I enjoyed it and I'm really happy Molly/Osage story was told on such a large scale. It's stayed on my mind these past couple days and that's what led me to this video! Well done in terms of conveying the emotions / motivations behind each person My favorite scenes were the ones involving the mother. Her visions of the owl, her telling her daughters her fears of their identities being lost, the scene where her ancestors come to visit in her final moments really moved me. Also the subtleties in the film, as time goes on- the amount of Osage portrayed in each scene dwindles in numbers. It's not pointed out, but something I noticed and a heart wrenching detail The trial scenes dragged on a bit too long but thats my only critique though I understand its necessity to the story.

[@ashvazdanghe]

​@@Tulsa_Films rule of Freemasons highly neglected even director has whitewashed dirty rule of Freemasons because director is also a freemason .

[@karenbrown2135]

This video gave me a really good feeling inside. My mom was born in Ponca City in 1934. So now I have some vision of how life was for them. Thank you for the video.

[@timmartin7664]

I read once, reading about automobiles that the Osage loved the Packard Twin Six automobile and if they would wreck one. They had enough money to purchase a brand new one. I can see several in this film. If you remember, Packards were premium cars at the time. On the same prestige level as Cadillac and Pierce-Arrow or Lincoln. I read that story as a child back in the 1970's. Packards were also known for their power and speed, which may have been a reason that they were sought out.

[@Tulsa_Films]

I've heard same story that when cars had mechanical problems they were simply abandoned, and owner went out and bought new car

[@randallfoltyniewicz7505]

Above all, thank you very much sir for sharing this video. It has given me motivation. Thank you once again, sir.

[@msneenee37]

This footage is really cool, history recorded at its best.

[@lauracunningham4945]

The man wearing the head scarf (at beginning, around 16 seconds in) is John Stink. My dad used to tell me the story of him when I was a kid. Google his name if you don't know about him.

[@jamespigman3636]

I just read the story! Cool to see the dogs that he was known to be with right next to him in the video! Thanks for the info!

[@frankfrankly1366]

I watched killers of the flower moon for the first time yesterday (july 26,2024) it took me while to get around to watching the film because i thought it looked boring and i didnt know it was based on true story, but im so glad i gave this film a chance and watched it, the story of the Osage people and what happened to them was heartbreaking,this movie had great cast another great film from Martin, i definitely loved this film!!!!

[@debbielinhart3823]

My father was born in Foraker, Osage County in 1914. His brother and two sisters were born there before he was.

[@monicawilson842]

They deserve to have what everyone else has. We are all equal

[@33jgarcia22]

Very cool to see this footage. Makes me wonder how much other film of other places/people is out there that we haven't seen. Would have never found this if not for Flower Moon

[@valeriegoode9762]

Holy shit. The way KOTFM looks identical to this is amazing. Rip to all of the Osage members who were murdered.

[@kevinford69]

This is in the 1920's

[@ChooseForToday]

What year was the road paved, I wonder.

[@ReadingComprehension8X]

How do you know

[@MacXcode]

May I ask "Tulsa Films" what were the educational level of the Osage Indian back in 1920's or at the time of this filming in 1930's? Were they able to read and write in english? is there a school house? if so, what kind of school did they have? I don't remember if the movie "Killers of The Flower Moon" ever mentioned anything about school house? Please can someone elaborate on the level of education of the Osage Indian of the time?

[@afsanarosebd]

I don’t know if this helps you but my grandparents met each other at a Native American school near Sapulpa in Creek county in the late 1930’s. It had been established there for a while. They were more educated than my great grandparents on the nonnative side of my family that were the same age as them. Both of my nonnative great grandmothers could not read or write or drive. They were both born in Oklahoma around 1910. I come from a very rural and poor area in Tulsa county. I live on the Tulsa and Osage county line.

[@ebjay1]

It’s amazing and very sad, I only knew about Tulsa and they showed clips of it in the movie. I don’t know which is worse, both bad. Beautiful families just enjoying life.

[@jdmbraceyourself695]

The Great Osage tribe came out of the Grayhorse reservation and now two other exist in pawhuska and hominy but they don't bring in their new dancers the right way. They have forgotten the real Osage ways

[@MisterDivineAdVenture]

This film reminds me strongly of my own large family from whom I was estranged by the same motives in a similar fraud and murder (as the new movie) - for which I was scapegoated. It makes me understand that my Italian family generation before my mother were locked in the 1930's - they skipped over the entire Fascist thing. They dressed this way and played this way joyous to be in America, in the 1950's and '60's. Though they had little in the way of wealth - their family did all right at Ford.

[@brucesumter4327]

i know some peoples from pawhuska like safeway brartlesville i was the olnly one born there rest famil born in claremore where the frankphillips HQ startdewey too ty for video was so cool

No, it’s just the coloring of the film. It was the same color it is now.
