"Scorsese's 'Killers of the Flower Moon' Receives Authenticity Boost from Osage Nation"

The Osage Nation collaborated with director Martin Scorsese and his team to ensure the authenticity of the upcoming film "Killers of the Flower Moon," based on the Osage murders in the 1920s. Concerned about potential exploitation and misrepresentation, the Osage Nation expressed their desire to be involved in the production. Scorsese and his team met with members of the tribe, incorporated their input, and made significant changes to the original script. Osage consultants worked on various aspects of the film, resulting in a level of authenticity rarely seen in mainstream Hollywood projects about Native Americans. While some Osages wished for a different perspective, they acknowledge the film's positive impact and hope it sets a new standard for cultural representation in the industry.
