What do u mean by that?
Like idk. Like that whole ending sequence. The extended scene with the fire. Like it felt like Scorsese having fun

Those two bits at the end
the stage play ending
the drum circle camera pull out
hardest ending in years
Kinda was reminded of the master by deniro & his group, the way Leonardo came in, his disposition in general
Feel like Philip Seymour Hoffman and Joaquin could’ve been swapped in

I dunno
As much as I love Leo, his performances don’t usually feel naturalistic in that type of way
Great film, does a great job at capturing the story. Ending was great
Highly recommend the book as it touches on even more than they could cover in the film
I have my issues with this movie but I also need Scorsese to delivere an epic block to that f*** Nolan on the Best Director category 🙏🏾🙌🏾
Imo, there's definitely some fat that could've been trimmed, but overall, I thought it was very engrossing. DeNiro is downright detestable, and DiCaprio is pitiful. Stupidity and greed are a truly nasty combo.
I kind of wish the movie explored more of the native side of the narrative, but if anything, the movie has given me a greater desire to do a deep dive into native history.
Btw our group was debating if Ernest knew he was poisoning Mollie. I personally don't think he knew—it was like the ultimate example of his foolishness. The look on his face during the table scene was one of genuine confusion.
Edit: So according to Google, the real Ernest was well aware of what he was doing, but apparently Scorsese purposely kept it ambiguous.

You should spoiler this
In the movie he seemed to have known deep down but didn’t ever want to admit it to himself

Yeah
I definitely think he always knew
pretty, prettay good
went in with such high expectations this might have disappointed me a bit, but it was still really well done as expected.
I read the book like a year ago, which I'm sure affected my viewing experience. I was surprised Hale being behind it all was revealed so quickly when that was revealed in the last third of the book
maybe because of that, I felt like the film lacked a bit of suspense or stakes or something
also now I can understand more where the Native Americans who criticized the film were coming from. the whole film focused on the white people, and I think Marty could've done a better job showing the history of the Osage and how these murders affected them
wasn't blown away but I still liked this a lot and will see how it is on a second watch. definitely an important yet disturbing part of US history that I'm glad will now become more well known
Multiple blatant ADR moments in this film lol
I noticed this because of your post lol
I usually write posts every week because I see so many movies with the season pass.
This time I’m writing a long post. I’ll post tomorrow but, I’ll say for right now that it was real cinema. All 3.5 hours had me engaged. It commands your attention. The entire audience was enthralled. Never once felt tempted to guess how much was left. I have some personal connections with the energy of the movie and family history, that’ll explain too.
