"Killers of the Flower Moon: Apple and Paramount Enforce Intermission Agreement, Theaters Face Crackdown"

Some movie theaters around the world have inserted an intermission into Martin Scorsese's film "Killers of the Flower Moon," despite the director not including one. European cinema chains UCI Cinemas and The Vue, as well as an independent theater in Amsterdam, offered screenings with a break. However, after violating their contract, The Lyric theater in Colorado removed the intermission following intervention from Paramount Pictures and Apple Original Films. While only a small number of theaters have included an intermission, it has caused some controversy. Scorsese defended the film's long runtime, and analysts suggest offering a limited intermission option could be economically beneficial.
