This article contains Killers of the Flower Moon spoilers.
Silence greets Ernest Burkhart when he enters a meeting with the business leaders of Osage County, Oklahoma. This late into Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon, Ernest (Leonardo DiCaprio) has proven to be easily pliable, to the point that his uncle William “King” Hale (Robert De Niro) can convince him to poison his beloved wife Mollie (Lily Gladstone). But he can be pushed only so far. If the leaders do not want Ernest to testify against his uncle, they must be subtle.
Thus the quiet when Ernest enters the room, which Scorsese and his cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto shoot like a baroque painting. The low mumble of their conversation fades as each withered white face turns from the shadows to face Ernest, who nods in a suggestion of understanding.
But the quiet breaks when W.S. Hamilton, the lawyer for Hale and Ernest,...

Can you find the wolves in this picture? You'll be able to do exactly that without ever having to step outside the house when "Killers of the Flower Moon," director Martin Scorsese's latest crime epic, is made available on PVOD and digital. As much as fans of the visionary talent may have panicked a bit when Apple swooped in to purchase the distribution rights, making this his latest high-profile production to become destined for a streaming release as opposed to theaters, the streamer thankfully made the unusual move of giving "Killers of the Flower Moon" an extended run in theaters worldwide. That decision quite literally paid off as the film enjoyed a modest amount of success relative to its $200+ million budget, proving beyond a doubt that there still remains an appetite for adult-minded entertainment with lengthy runtimes, sobering source material, and underrepresented movie stars.

In Martin Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon,” Brendan Fraser first appears in the third act, but his outsized performance as lawyer W.S. Hamilton leaves a massive impression. The performance has gotten mixed online reactions, but the director himself has nothing but praise for it.
In a recent interview with LADBible (via Entertainment Weekly), Scorsese defended Fraser’s performance against online criticism. Since the film’s theatrical release on October 27, some online commentators have criticized it as over-the-top or too exaggerated. In his interview, Scorsese said that Fraser was “perfect” for the role, particularly praising him for his work in scenes opposite lead Leonardo DiCaprio.
“We thought he’d be great for the lawyer, and I admired his work over the years,” Scorsese said. “He actually came in for I think a couple of weeks on the picture, particularly when it was in our later shoot. We had a really good time working together,...

Martin Scorsese’s latest film, Killers of the Flower Moon, is now out and has been praised by many, including Francis Ford Coppola, as Scorsese’s masterpiece. However, the movie, no matter how positive a reception it has gotten, is not bulletproof (just as the gangsters in his mobster films aren’t). Some theaters have taken it into their own hands to diminish the effects of the film’s lengthy runtime for audiences by inserting their own intermissions that haven’t been approved by Scorsese. The practice has faced backlash from the movie’s editor, Thelma Schoonmaker. And recently, social media has been divisive over the choices that Brendan Fraser has made for his performance as the lawyer, W.S. Hamilton.
According to LADBible, Fraser’s performance is drawing criticism from many on social media who feel his portrayal was “baffling” and deemed it to be cartoonish in the middle of an otherwise serious film.

Martin Scorsese has defended Brendan Fraser's performance in 'Killers of the Flower Moon'.The Oscar-winning star features in the Western crime drama as W.S. Hamilton – the attorney for William Hale (Robert De Niro) – but has been criticised by viewers for his 'overblown' acting, although the legendary director felt that he captured the essence of the character.Scorsese said at a press conference: "We thought he'd be great for the lawyer and I admired his work over the years."He actually came in for a couple of weeks on the picture, particularly when it was in our later shoot. We had a really good time working together, particularly with Leo (DiCaprio). Particularly in the scene where he says, 'They're putting a noose around your neck, he's saving you dumb boy.'"Really for us, when we heard that... he brought the whole scene down on Leo.

Martin Scorsese recently said at a press conference (via LADbible) that Brendan Fraser is “perfect” in “Killers of the Flower Moon.” The actor, who won the Oscar this year for his performance in “The Whale,” has been panned by some viewers, claiming his over-the-top acting feels largely out of place in the film. Fraser has a brief supporting turn as W. S. Hamilton, the boisterous attorney for William Hale (Robert De Niro).
“We thought he’d be great for the lawyer and I admired his work over the years,” Scorsese said when asked about casting Fraser in the film. “He actually came in for I think a couple of weeks on the picture, particularly when it was in our later shoot. We had a really good time working together, particularly with Leo. Particularly in the scene where he says, ‘They’re putting a noose around your neck, he’s saving you dumb boy.

Martin Scorsese’s engrossing 1920s-set historical thriller Killers of the Flower Moon opens with a lament. Elders of the Oklahoma Osage tribe gather to grieve for the younger kin who have been seduced by the decadence of their white neighbors. In many cases, these “deaths” are spiritual, but plenty will become actual—the dreadful end game of an elaborate ruse to bilk the Natives of wealth attained through the area’s plentiful oil reserves.
Author David Grann chronicled this horrific real-life plot, and the scrutiny of it by the then-nascent Federal Bureau of Investigation, in his 2017 nonfiction book of the same name as the film. Scorsese, who co-wrote the screenplay with Eric Roth, initially followed Grann’s procedural template with the F.B.I. as the primary focus. But during pre-production he and Roth changed tack, inverting the narrative so that the Osage and their slaughterers take center stage, with...

Leonardo DiCaprio has reaped an even dozen Oscar nominations for acting. His first bid was back in 1994 in Best Supporting Actor for “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape.” After a gap of more than a decade (including being snubbed for “Titanic), he contended for Best Actor in 2005 for “The Aviator” and in 2007 for “Blood Diamond.” He then earned two nominations for Martin Scorsese‘s “The Wolf of Wall Street” in 2014 as both producer and star. Two years later, he won Best Actor for “The Revenant.” Most recently he competed in lead in 2020 for Quentin Tarantino‘s “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.” Those five Best Actor nominations match the tallies of the likes of Robert De Niro, Tom Hanks, Al Pacino, Sean Penn, and James Stewart.

Martin Scorsese's "Killers of the Flower Moon" finally has a release date. The long-awaited true-crime film is heading to theaters this October before it eventually starts streaming on Apple TV+, and we already know how long it'll be.
"Killers of the Flower Moon" - which boasts a sprawling cast that includes Leonardo DiCaprio, newly minted Oscar-winner Brendan Fraser, Robert De Niro, Lily Gladstone, and Jesse Plemons - is based on the bestselling nonfiction book of the same name written by David Grann. It tells a story set in 1920s Oklahoma when members of the Osage Nation were targeted and murdered by a serial killer, seemingly because of the Nation's ties to oil. The string of crimes became known as the Reign of Terror. Grann's book tells the story of how the modern FBI came out of the investigation into those murders.

Brendan Fraser has already built up a strong resume in the DC Comics universe. His return to regular acting work actually geared up with a low-key role on a cult-favorite DC show. But many fans don’t realize that the beloved actor has been working in the superhero TV and movie space for years at this point.
Sure, one of the projects that the Mummy actor joined wasn’t actually released. But the other has involved regular appearances for years. And — here’s the kicker — it doesn’t discount future roles in the DC movie and TV universe that creative lead James Gunn is building. Read on to find out how it all fits together.

When you think about George of the Jungle, Brendan Fraser‘s ripped body is probably the first thing that comes to mind. The 1997 movie is one of Fraser’s most beloved films for several reasons. While the actor delivered a great performance as the fish-out-of-water George, he was uncomfortable filming the movie.
