Details

The globally acclaimed Killers of the Flower Moon, a film about greed and corruption perpetrated against the Osage people in the 1920s, was nominated this past Monday for seven Golden Globe Awards.

Killers of the Flower Moon was co-produced and directed by the award-winning Martin Scorsese, who also co-wrote the script with Eric Roth.

The movie unveils the story of the Osage, who, because of oil on their allotted lands in Oklahoma, became some of the world’s wealthiest people on a per capita basis. During the 1920s, dozens of Osage died under mysterious circumstances. In many cases, those circumstances turned out to be murder. The film concentrates on the family of Mollie Burkhart, played by 37-year-old Lily Gladstone (Blackfeet and Nimíipuu), who had several members of her family murdered, including two sisters.
