dances with wolves was better

Except it's slower, less exciting, and depicts a much duller period and less-interesting tribe of the American West.

How is this an "answer" to Dances with Wolves?

[–] GenoWashingline (870) 5 months ago

Scorsese is still bitter that Dances beat Good fellas to the Oscar, and this is him saying he can do a better story about that kind of thing

[–] Kendricks (2239) 5 months ago

So because it is very loosely a western by genre, and despite handling completely different topics and time frames... that's "his answer"?

Sorry I don't see that.
Dances with Wolves is a masterpiece.
Flower Moon was nothing but a massive white guilt trip thing and Oscar bait.
