The Dark Message of 'Killers of the Flower Moon'

Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon is set on the open prairies of Osage County, Okla. Its colors are the colors of a time still in touch with the earth: tree bark and aged leather, bitter blues and drained grayish greens, linen, limestone, the warm glow of flame and amber glass. Everything is dusty, weathered, and smoky. The sky is always pale and the nights always cool.
