Killers Of The Flower Moon is the 2023 American epic Western crime drama film directed and produced by Martin Scorsese. The story is based on the 2017 book of the same name by David Grann and centers on a series of Oklahoma murders in the Osage Nation during the 1920s, committed after oil was discovered on tribal land. The film stars an impressive cast including Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro, and Lily Gladstone, with Jesse Plemons, Tantoo Cardinal, John Lithgow, and Brendan Fraser in supporting roles.
The film features a score by Scorsese's longtime collaborator Robbie Robertson, who formed a lifelong friendship right after Roberton's breakup with The Band. The two worked together on The Last Waltz (1978), Raging Bull (1980), Casino (1995), Gangs Of New York (2002), The Wolf On Wall Street (2013), and The Irishman (2019) amongst others. Critics have described the original soundtrack for Killers Of The Flower Moon as “old-timey”, “bluesey”, and “percussive”. Due to his passing in August 2023, this is the last completed film score Robertson's created.
