Snubbed Kings and QUEENS out here!!

Maybe in the annals of Weird and Affected Performances.

But I don't want his performance to bring down Lily Gladstone's - even in talking about it.

Though he was pretty good in his scenes with Lily.

I think the good thing about Leo regarding this movie is that he's being very supportive of Lily, so maybe that will help her chances

[wwgrogudo]

100% - I am very impressed with how he has shown up for Lily and really hope he continues. (I think he will.)

but who also truly loved his wife

Er.... no he did not

[war_machine_rox]

Okay first of all. Without Lily in the scene with him his performance wasn't much to write home about. She carried him.

SECOND! can a man who is murdering his wife slowly and actively killing her family really, really love her?

Marty. Sir. Please.

Yeah like Marty's interpretation of this character is bonkers. I was going to say I'm a little worried about his wife but then I looked it up and dude has been divorced 5 times - I think we can ignore anything he has to say about healthy marriages.

tbf, that interpretation of their relationship came straight from the osage community. it's briefly discussed in the interview but has been mentioned elsewhere as well

[alwayspolaris]

I'd be curious to what their full statement because "truly loved" seems very oversimplified (not a mistrust of your response, I'm just uncertain of Scorsese's interpretation of their their words since I remember members of the Osage had mixed feelings about the film).

felt like a copy/paste of same old same old
