Led by breakout star Lily Gladstone, Killers of the Flower Moon highlights the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women crisis.
In this review, writer Kate Nelson examines Martin Scorcese’s new film Killers of the Flower Moon, starring Lily Gladstone and Leonardo DiCaprio. Warning: Major spoilers ahead. “This blanket is a target on our backs,” Spoken in a hushed conversation between Lily Gladstone’s Mollie Burkhart and JaNae Collins’ Rita Smith as they fear for their lives, this is one of many poignant lines in Martin Scorsese’s epic Killers of the Flower Moon.
Along the way, Mollie’s well-founded concerns about her safety are quickly dismissed by her husband, paralleling how women’s intuition — once a guiding force in many matriarchal Indigenous societies — has been purposefully undermined in order to propagate a patriarchal power structure.
