    I hope it’s not an origin story- they’re all kind of the same.

    The article explains the plot and story.

    The film, based on David Grann's bestselling true-crime book of the same name, is set in 1920s Oklahoma and depicts the mysterious murders of the members of the Osage Nation. This string of brutal crimes, which were committed with the intent of stealing their oil wealth, became known as the Reign of Terror.

    It's a Martin Scorcese picture, how on earth could it be an origin story? That's like saying "I hope it's not a bright and optimistic story" when the director is Zach Snyder.

    I'm really excited for this. I'm not much of a fan of the FBI, but I don't think it's a movie that needs to necessarily glorify the FBI to exist. So long as the film spends its time focusing on atrocities committed by the United States government against indigenous populations, it will be fine.

    It's Scorsese though, so I expect it to be good. Even the movies of his that I'm not massive on still have something for me to connect with.

    This person only seems to know how to make these kinds of, "witty" posts. But hey, if they're amused it's otherwise harmless.

    Scorsese and Crime movies have become so interchangeable like time and space in science fiction stories.

    I am not sure these guy loved making Hugo. I thought he would have branched off more from that to give his filmography a lot more variety, but nope. he did more crime movies and more crime movies and even more crimes movies.

    Give it 15 years and Chris Nolan will be climb above Scorsese in the best directors list.

    Directors aren't rated by lesser efforts late in their career. They are judged by their best work.

    What's worng with crime movie's? So what if he keep doing them? He's good at it so why not as for Scorsese vs Nolan both have pris and cons but I think Scorsese has done better movies

    I really didn't think I was witty. Kind of used the most obvious thing I could think of at the time.

    I amuse myself in other ways...

    Default Killers of the Flower Moon new trailer

    This was released a week or 2 ago. I think it's another great Scorsese movie. I will say they did Brendan Fraser and John Lithgow dirty. Fraser is an Oscar winner this year and he's just barely featured in the trailer and Lithgow is a two time Oscar and Emmy nominee/winner and they don't even bother to show him.

    Both are barely in the movie so why should they advertise them?
    Tolstoy will live forever. Some people do. But that's not enough. It's not the length of a life that matters, just the depth of it. The chances we take. The paths we choose. How we go on when our hearts break. Hearts always break and so we bend with our hearts. And we sway. But in the end what matters is that we loved... and lived.
