Dude my crowd all went “dont do that s***” when that scene came up lol

That one scene with him gambling made it clear to me that he loved money more than anything including his wife and even if he didn’t like doing what he did he was still going about it which is why is still lied about the shots he was given to her when he was confronted about it

got tickets for a 630 pm showing tonight

skipped dolby/imax in favor of a theater that had those nice ass recliners for a time that wasn't like 2pm. gotta be comfy for 3.5 hours (probably gonna catch it in imax later this week lol)

even after what went down they didn’t even stay in jail long and Mollie dying at just the age of 50 was heartbreaking for me

And that argument they had over the medicine and he’s mocking the Osages in general kinda presented how he felt about them overall. They’re pretty and have money but besides that they’re just savages to them.

i dont think they showed it much but in moments where he defends his uncle you can see he does idolize him a bit, so he blindly assumes he knows best for a lot of the movie

And the one part where the Osage tribe was trusting Unc still cause he’s been their “friend” for decades really showed how much he had a grip over everyone in that area mentally. Very easily he could snake around the whole town and everyone thinking s\*\*\* was sweet

Second showing tonight

OD, was worried about falling asleep but i couldve watched an extra hour if needed. crazy how captivating it was without there being much action

Do y’all think she was really married at 15? I got the impression that Hale was making that up in order to manipulate Ernest.

I don't know enough about indigenous culture to speculate whether she was married at 15 but even if she was I don't think it was in a normal husband/wife way but like a traditional thing and they probably went their separate ways once they were of age

Could have very well been Hale manipulating Ernest more bc his demeanor does change to one more of jealousy and becomes more willing to do what he does as a result

Bro facts!!! S*** didn’t drag at all and felt shorter than it actually was

When it got to the courtroom scene I was expecting it to end just like Goodfellas but I'm glad it didn't

Ppl criticizing Brendan's performance like he wasn't supposed to be an over the top, bombastic lawyer lmao he's clearly a bit more subdued in the later scene talking with Ernest but you got ppl saying he should give his Oscar back for The Whale bc his performance in this is apparently so awful smh

Yeah when he says "I love money almost as much as I love my wife" I'm pretty sure he mixed the two up

Honestly had trouble believing he loved his wife at all after a certain point dude was both horribly ignorant and just horrible in general

Harkins cancelled my showtime and refunded me my ticket. All the showtimes for today are sold out now. I'm just trying to watch the film, man.

yeah that was top 3 ngl

looked and sounded crazy beautiful in Dolby

Second watch done, I won’t write another long post, but I’ll do some more thoughts at some point this week.

Do another long post we gotta know what new thoughts you have on 2nd rewatch
