Martin Scorsese has spoken out in defence of the runtime of his forthcoming Western epic, Killers of the Flower Moon.
The veteran director, 80, will soon release his latest picture, which is set in 1920s Oklahoma and follows a series of murders in a Native American community. At 3hrs 26, the Leonardo DiCaprio-led picture easily beats the year’s previously longest blockbuster, Oppenheimer, which is 3hrs long.
