Martin Scorsese

Negli anni Venti, alcuni membri della tribù di nativi americani Osage, della contea di Osage, in Oklahoma, vengono assassinati dopo che del petrolio viene trovato sulla loro terra, e l'FBI decide di indagare (fonte: retro del dvd)

Beautiful and moving. Some people wished it had been told from the perspective of the Osage rather than their murderers, but telling it from the victims' perspective would make it a whodunnit whereas Scorsese has always been more interested in why than who -- why bad or evil people do what they do. In this case he lures you into identifying with Ernest Burkhart before he slowly allows himself to become complicit in what he knows is a heinous conspiracy.

Enjoyable, but way too long and over the top. Lots of flash, but lacks a heart.

A very violent movie, but well put together.
