I crashed on her couch in Toronto whenCertain Womenplayed at TIFF.
I had a lot of time acclimating myself to the script.
The Osage people have had their lives to understand this history.
The process of making this movie gave a lot of people a chance to speak.
Ultimately, Osage reaction is what I care about the most.
She said the violence normalizes such treatment and further dehumanizes our people.
However, she did not condemn Gladstones work in the film.
It must be noted that Lily Gladstone is an absolute legend & carried Mollie w/ tremendous grace.
All the incredible Indigenous actors were the only redeeming factors of this film.
Give Lily her goddamn Oscar.
Gladstone admitted that she, too, had to work through her feelings on the films portrayals.
She recently told IndieWire, But the history itself is triggering.
A lot of people felt like it was depicted very well.
It was balanced and a lot of people appreciated that.
