Killers of the Flower Moon stream: synopsis

Any new Martin Scorsese, Leonardo DiCaprio or Robert De Niro release is a noteworthy event. But when you combine the three, you get a film that's absolutely unmissable. The epically-lengthed Killers of the Flower Moon is out of the theatres and into your living room and you can watch it for FREE with Apple TV Plus now.

Killers of the Flower Moon takes us back to 1920s Oklahoma. This is Osage country, where its indigenous landowners are trying their best to maintain proprietary of their mineral-rich land and withhold the insidious creep of white prospectors seeking a share of the spoils.

But when Ernest Burkhart (DiCaprio) returns from fighting in WW1, it isn't long before his manipulative uncle William King Hale (De Niro) begins using him for his own Machiavellian means. And with so much money lying in that earth, there are few lengths to which they won't go to get their hands on it – no matter how much blood needs to be spilled.

This is no straightforward crime drama, though, with Ernest's apparent love for his Osage bride Mollie Kyle (played by the magnetic Lily Gladstone in her breakout performance) casting shades of gray on his actions and motives. In their relationship, Scorsese, co-writer Eric Roth and the actors have masterfully forged a central relationship to echo down generations.

At well over three hours in running time, this is a serious piece of cinema. And it's testimony to the skill of the great Scorsese and his long-term collaborator editor Thelma Schoonmaker that the movie never feels boring or overinflated. With its ensemble cast, superb movie score and sumptuous cinematography, Killers of the Flower Moon is unsurprisingly a shoe-in to rack up a hatful of Oscar nominations.
