In describing William Hale, the character he plays in Martin Scorsese's 'Killers of the Flower Moon,' Robert De Niro compared him to former President Trump.
Robert De Niro blew a hole in a rather careful conversation about racism and American history at the Cannes Film Festival when he described his most evil character to date as being like Donald Trump.Robert De Niro compared William Hale, who helped orchestrate a murderous reign of terror against the Osage nation in the 1920s, to the former president.
Scorsese said he was aware of the risks of having a white man make a film about a little known and completely horrific chapter of American history — more than 60 Osage were murdered, robbed of their land rights, or both before the U.S. government stepped in.The searing, sprawling ‘Killers,’ which premiered Saturday at Cannes, is both like and unlike anything its director has ever done.
The heart, he realized, lay in the relationship between Ernest and Mollie Burkhart , the Osage woman he marries, in part because Hale needs him to inherit her family’s land rights. “We took great pride in telling the story as best we could,” said DiCaprio, “and took great pride in having them here with us. What Marty does so incredibly well is he’s able to expose the humanity of some of the twisted, sinister characters. The gamble was to take on this incredibly important story that was a reckoning of our past, much like the Tulsa massacre, that people are starting to learn about.
