"Complicated Feelings and Personal Gain: Reviewing Scorsese's 'Killers of the Flower Moon'"

Christopher Cote, an Osage language consultant for the film "Killers of the Flower Moon," expressed mixed feelings after watching the movie, stating that while Martin Scorsese did a great job representing the Osage people, the perspective of the story seemed to focus more on the non-Osage character played by Leonardo DiCaprio. Cote questioned the portrayal of love in the film, considering the historical context of the murders. Other Osage consultants also had mixed feelings about the movie, appreciating some aspects but finding others difficult to accept. The film, based on a book about the FBI's investigation into the Osage murders, is set to release on Friday.
