Martin Scorsese's latest film, Killers of the Flower Moon, is based on the true story of the systematic killings of members of the Osage Nation in 1920s Oklahoma. The film explores themes of greed, betrayal, and love, and centers around a romance between a First World War veteran and a wealthy Osage woman. Scorsese's casting choices, including Lily Gladstone, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Robert De Niro, are praised for their performances. The director took great care to research and respect the Osage culture, working closely with the community and ensuring the film avoided offensive stereotypes. [Extracted from the article]
