But regarding the ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ movie it’s just a matter of Scorcese DiCaprio and DeNiro dredging up long ago stuff from the 20s to bash white people. Typical leftists.

I saw the movie this last week in the theater (though I guess its primary purpose is to be content on Apple's streaming service). DiCaprio does a fine job. The actress who plays DiCaprio's wife was also impressive. As usual, DeNiro plays himself, but this time with glasses.

And also as usual for Scorcese movies in the last couple of decades, the film is too long, but the story was interesting enough to sit through it.

Read to page 100 of the book and quit. Felt like the story hadn’t moved one inch from page 1. Too many other books to read.

“...Tim Giago, who founded the first Native American–run newspaper in the country...”

I don’t think so...The first issue of the Cherokee Phoenix was dated February 21, 1828.

I got completely lost reading the stream of consciousness essay written by Nancy Rommelmann.

I have a lot of respect for Scorsese, De Niro, and DiCaprio.

"Killers of the Flower Moon" needs close to $400 million in box office to break even.

It pulled in $44.3 in its opening weekend, domestic plus international.

I am thinking "Flower Moon" will be available on basic cable within 18 months, which is when I will try to watch all 3 hours and 26 minutes.

He doesn’t live to see the dream, what he pushed for, what other Native actors will spend the next three and a half decades pushing for: to have their stories told, to tell their own stories, to be portrayed not as caricatures but as fully human.

If you want to make movies and tell your stories, do so! How does she think Martin Scorsese got financing for Mean Streets back in the day? And these days, you can shoot a movie ... using your phone!

Read her last feature, “The Woman Who Stood Up to the Porn Industry—and Won.”

A lot of ways to interpret that.

On July 7, 2019, Tim and I are watching the U.S. Open....

Huh? What US Open in July?! Not tennis.... not golf. If you're going to write factually, get the facts straight!

White people bad
Indians good

Italian midget knows best

Rare to pass on Scorsese

Americans today don’t know shit about Indian history honestly

It’s part Hiawatha and part Charles Manson and Hamas

This woman writes like Peggy Noonan — Overly-verbose and self-referential.

It was an ok movie but they could have told the “all Indians good, whitey bad” in an hour. Sorry for the spoiler but think of it saving you 4 hours and $15.
