It's a Scorsese movie so of course everything about it was expertly done. I especially enjoyed the physicality Leo brought to his role which I haven't seen him do before, Lily Gladstone definitely stole the show and I hope she gets the Oscar for her performance. I thought the radio drama ending felt a little out of place, however, and I could've used an intermission tbh

I watched it at home, but didn't take a bathroom break lol
I saw it pre-release in the theaters and didn't take a bathroom break either, but I also planned ahead and didn't drink any fluids for a few hours beforehand
Well I didn't plan for it, but my ADHD ass chose to forget I need to pee.
It was a really good movie, but paints Earnest as much more of a patsy than I came away with after the book. Also, the book reveals that this was one such story and the magnitude of the deaths was even more obscene.
Yeah the first thing that came to mind was, how is he so dumb?
Something is wrong with me. I turned it off after 30 minutes, I was incredibly bored.
Slow burn movies are not for everyone. May be also depends on your mood going in. I started watching it a week ago, and closed out in the first 5 mins because I started too late in the night and was not fresh enough to get immersed into it.
The length is what kills it for me. I do not have that much free time consecutively to commit to it. And splitting it up seems less appealing.
I watched it over two nights and didn't feel like it lost anything for what it's worth. Because it's a slow burn it lends itself well to a split.
Yeah I put this off for the length commitment and I can't stand to watch betrayal on screen (some old trauma). I'm glad I watched it.
Great movie. I thought it was some sort of Utopian fiction at the start
Unfortunately theres a law prohibiting teachers in Oklahoma from talking about the Osage murders
Really?! That's fucked up
Not really true.
House Bill 1775 passed in 2021. It prohibits educators from teaching that an individual is inherently racist or oppressive based on their race, an individual bears responsibility for actions committed in the past by other members of the same race, or that any individual should feel discomfort or guilt based on race.
While that's a shit law, I can't see it stopping teaching this. It's an intentionally vague law that needs tested in court.
