Among the most anticipated movies the year has to be the latest from iconic American filmmaker Martin Scorsese. “Killers of the Flower Moon” is an epic-sized $200 million feature film backed by Apple Studios that received rave reviews following its premiere at this year’s Cannes Film Festival. The film is getting a full theater release courtesy of Paramount Pictures before streaming exclusively on Apple TV+.
A brand new trailer has dropped giving us an ever better look at what’s sure to be a compelling and immersive cinematic experience. The film sees Scorsese reteaming with two of his very favorites, Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro to tell the story of the mysterious murders of Osage tribe members in 1920s Oklahoma. Politics, greed, territorialism, and genocide all factor into this historical crime drama that ventures into the truly horrific.
“Killers of the Flower Moon” releases in theaters on October 20th. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.
Keith & the Movies 
Yeah, I want to see this. I need to watch The Irishman to catch up on Scorsese. I’ve seen nearly everything he did in the 70s and everything he did in the 80s. There’s still stuff from the 60s and some films from the 90s/2000s that I need to watch.
I really liked The Irishman. Recently bought it on Criterion and have been looking forward to seeing it again.
Why does this movie have to be 3 and a half hours long? That is enough to make me say no thanks to the theater chairs and yes please to a viewing at home, where I will undoubtedly break up this thing in at least two parts. Three and a half hours?? Make it a mini series, Marty.
LOL. I hear ya. Although I have heard some of the critics who caught it at Cannes say that it earns the running time. We shall see!
No doubt it’s going to be a worthy story to be told in a long format. I think for me too those breaks will be needed to get away from the thing for a bit. By all accounts this is going to be a heavy watch. As it probably should be.
I will see it one way or another. I hope it’s opened up to a wide viewing audience, not just those who can afford yet another paid streaming service.
Oh it’s getting a full theater release from what I understand.
I’m with Tom!
