Read previewMichelle Yeoh attempted to clear the air after claims that Emma Stone snubbed her onstage when Yeoh presented her with the best actress award at the Oscars Sunday. In footage from the event, Stone approaches Yeoh onstage, moving to accept the statue from her. AdvertisementSome watching at home accused Stone of rudely snubbing Yeoh when she accepted the award. Yeoh wrote in a caption of a photo from Sunday night's awards show. Stone, who played the peculiar Bella Baxter in the film, was considered a frontrunner, though not the favorite, for the best actress award.

Lily Gladstone knew she wanted to be somewhere special when the Oscar news came. “I wanted to be as close to Mollie Kyle and her family as I could be. But Gladstone pointed out that the film was not only about what she called the “horrible, complicated, skewed love” between Mollie and Ernest. It is also, she said, about “the love that Mollie and her community had for each other. As an actor and then, how I can help get other stories told that deserve to be out there.

NEW YORK (AP) — The fallout from the actors strike, now past 100 days, has been widespread throughout the film industry. As the strike pushes into Hollywood’s awards season, it’s increasingly muting the reception for some of the best performances of the year. With so many out of work due to the strike, no one should cry for muzzled Oscar campaigns. Just as Carney’s “Once” was a breakthrough for Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová, Hewson is a revelation in “Flora and Son.” (Streaming on Apple TV+)COLMAN DOMINGOColman Domingo has long been a powerhouse on screen. The film is set mainly during the run-up to the 1963 March on Washington, which Rustin was the architect of.

☆ What to Know About ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’: A Guide to the Osage Murders
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-20 | by ( Sarah Bahr | More About Sarah Bahr | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +2 min

Mollie Kyle was a single woman from a wealthy Osage family, which made her a target. First, in 1918, a sister, Minnie Smith, died of what doctors called a “peculiar wasting illness” (probably poisoning). With each death, Mollie — and therefore Ernest — inherited additional headrights. The Osage Tribal Council suspected Hale early on, but it couldn’t get anyone to testify against him: Hale had bribed or threatened many witnesses into silence. (It would later be renamed the Federal Bureau of Investigation.)

☆ 'Killers of the Flower Moon' review: Martin Scorsese, Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro team up on a movie that wants to be epic but just feels long

CNN —There’s a difference between “long” and “epic,” although in movie terms the two frequently get confused. Martin Scorsese delivers the former but not the latter with “Killers of the Flower Moon,” his second consecutive three-and-a-half-hour movie derived from a true story and underwritten by a prestige-hungry streaming service. Notably, “Killers of the Flower Moon” will receive a wide big-screen launch that includes playing on hundreds of Imax screens. Either way, Scorsese has served up a movie that also plunges into a dark history and comes away with less bang for its bucks. “Killers of the Flower Moon” premieres October 20 in US theaters and will later play on Apple TV+.

Led by Scorsese, the filmmakers aimed to be scrupulously authentic in the ways they depicted the Osage, down to the threads in their clothing. “Few people in the world could afford that, but they documented their lives and their travel and where they lived so beautifully. By the early 20th century, the Osage were as au courant as Vogue editors. The wedding scene in “Killers of the Flower Moon” is a showstopper, with Mollie Kyle, the bride played by Gladstone, and her bridesmaid sisters in richly embroidered skirts, finger-woven belts and bespoke military coats, complete with brass buttons and braided epaulets. The look is topped off by towering 18-inch hats decorated with French ribbon and festooned with feathers dyed cyan or magenta.
