Publish date: 2024-06-05

Leonardo DiCaprio and Lily Gladstone, the stars of Killers of the Flower Moon, honored the Native American tribes at the center of the historical drama with their red carpet fashion at the 2024 Golden Globes.

"The Osage Nation, we're standing in unison with them for this movie," DiCaprio told Entertainment Tonight reporter Rachel Smith during the red carpet pre-show.

Gladstone told Smith that her earrings were a Blackfeet design made by Lenise Omeasoo of Antelope Women Designs, while DiCaprio wore a pin with the symbol of the Osage Nation on the lapel of his Armani tux. "I have my Osage pin on tonight," he said proudly.

Gladstone, who grew up on a Montana Blackfeet reservation, is a Golden Globe nominee for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Motion Picture — Drama for her role as Mollie Burkhart, an Osage woman who owns significant mineral rights in 1920s Oklahoma.

DiCaprio plays Gladstone's husband and is nominated for Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Motion Picture — Drama. This marks the Titanic actor's 14th Golden Globe nomination.

Killers of the Flower Moon is also nominated for Best Motion Picture — Drama, Best Screenplay, and Best Original Score, with Martin Scorsese earning a Best Director nod and Robert De Niro picking up a nom in the category of Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Supporting Role in Any Motion Picture.

The film is based on David Grann’s 2017 nonfiction book Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI, about the systemic murders of members of the Osage Nation by a political boss and the victims' own white family members.

Scorsese, who lost in the directing category to Oppenheimer filmmaker Christopher Nolan, worked with members of the Osage Nation to center the Indigenous experience in the film's narrative.
