Regarding re: sold out screenings NYC is an anomaly for this. Movies that have bombed in the real world can have sold out screenings still. I saw The Matrix Resurrections opening night in IMAX and you would have thought it would have ended up grossing a billion dollars based on the size of that audience and the reactions it got that night. Same goes for this. KOTF opening night in a NYC theater filled with cinema sickos, was like an opening night for a Marvel movie when that actually meant something.
Saw this a couple of weeks ago and thought it was really, really good. Haven't really stopped thinking about it since. Got me on another Scorcese kick. Also got me very interested in Native American history and I'm not much of a history guy, so if anyone has starter media recs regarding that (including books), feel free to send them my way.
great flick. Incredible performances form Gladstone, Leo and Deniro! Needed more Plemons. the big man popping up for the obituary read was such a wonderful wonderful touch. instantly teared up
Going through this thread since I finally saw this. It’s very funny this got delayed because they thought “Emancipation” was gonna be their big movie for 2022.
I know there’s a lot of negativity surrounding how it’s done box office wise. But hey, The Marvels is going to bomb hard I think. I don’t think it’s a Marvel/Superhero related thing.
Not gonna repeat everything everyone’s already said, but it was great. Thank God Marty is still with us and making Paramount make an original film. Grateful Apple released this in theaters.
With everything going on in the film industry, any time a filmmaker can get that kind of budget to make something that isn't part of a franchise, it is a miracle.
Movie was insanely good. Might have to catch it again in theaters. Hopefully the strike really is about to end because Lily Gladstone deserves to promote the fuck out of this movie and be on everyone’s screens.
This was great. A damning look at those who pretend to be ignorant of the oppression around them and claim to not be part of the problem and white privilege in general. The final scene with Mollie and Ernest was masterfully done as was the end framing of the FBI-sponsored true crime show. If I were to criticise it for one thing it would be how it juggles characters early on. For a three and a half hour movie, there were plenty of characters whom I still feel I barely got to know, particularly many of the Osage. Still, for as long as it was, I never felt its length which is quite impressive.
