Martin Scorsese‘s Killers of the Flower Moon received a nine-minute standing ovation at Cannes on Saturday (20 May), with critics hailing his sweeping American epic as a “masterpiece”.
The US director’s latest work, which stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Lily Gladstone and Robert De Niro and stretches to a running time of three and a half hours, is an adaptation of David Grann's nonfiction bestseller. Centred on the Osage murders in 1920s Oklahoma, it cost streaming service Apple $200m (£160m) to make.
