“Based on David Grann’s broadly lauded best-selling book, Killers of the Flower Moon is set in 1920s Oklahoma and depicts the serial murder of members of the oil-wealthy Osage Nation, a string of brutal crimes that came to be known as the Reign of Terror,” the official description reads
In the film, DiCaprio plays Ernest Burkhart, a man in the community who is married to an Osage woman, Mollie, played by Gladstone.
“The Osage took their name from Missouri and Osage Rivers. Ni-U0Kon-Ska. Children of the Middle Waters,” DiCaprio’s character says in an ominous voice-over. “Move, said the great white father. There are many, so many, hungry wolves. Can you find the wolves in this picture?”
