Manage episode 447297273 series 3611353
In episode 48 of the podcast we talk about the film KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON with Dr. Moira RedCorn and her brother Yancey Red Corn, members of the Osage Nation. Yancey Red Corn appears in the Martin Scorsese film as Osage Chief Arthur Bonnicastle and Moira Red Corn was an extra in the film’s opening scene.
Yancy and Moira’s father, the late Charles H. Red Corn authored the novel, “A Pipe for February,” published by the University of Oklahoma Press over 10 years before David Grann’s book “Killers of the Flower Moon.” Both books were optioned and adapted for KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON. Moira and Yancey talk about how they witnessed their father’s book come to life in the film.
KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON is nominated for 10 Academy Awards™ including Best Actress for Golden Globe winner Lily Gladstone, Best Costume Design (Jacqueline West), Best Editing (Thelma Schoonmaker), Best Original Song (Scott George), Best Director (Martin Scorsese), and Best Picture.
