American epic revisionist Western crime drama film “Killer of the Flower Moon” will be shown in six cinemas in Sri Lanka from 27 October.
They are Colombo City Centre, PVR Cinemas, Liberty by SCOPE – Kollupitiya, Liberty by SCOPE – Kiribathgoda, Kandy City Centre, and Regal Katubadda.
Killer of the Flower Moon is directed by Martin Scorsese, who co-wrote the screenplay with Eric Roth, based on the 2017 book of the same name by David Grann.
Its plot centres on a series of Oklahoma murders in the Osage Nation during the 1920s, committed after oil was discovered on tribal land.
Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro, and Lily Gladstone lead an ensemble cast, that also includes Jesse Plemons, Tantoo Cardinal, John Lithgow and Brendan Fraser. It is the sixth feature film collaboration between Scorsese and DiCaprio and the 10th between Scorsese and De Niro, and the 11th and final collaboration between Scorsese and his musical partner Robbie Robertson, who died two months before the film’s release; the film is dedicated to Robertson.
In the 1920s, members of the Osage Native American tribe of Osage County, Oklahoma, are murdered after oil is found on their land, and the FBI decides to investigate.
