Written by Scorsese and Eric Roth, the 206-minute epic dramatizes the true story of the Native American Osage Nation, and the discovery of oil on their land. Native Americans had to deal with interlopers who manipulated and extorted money from the group before resorting to murder.

The general release of the film in theaters resulted in an opening weekend of $23 million in the United States, and a advocate $21 million abroad. However, the following weekend, the film’s sales dropped by 61%.
