DiCaprio would play the incorruptible Texas Ranger-turned FBI agent Tom White, whose sleuthing ends the Reign Of Terror murders that decimated the murders of oil rich Osage tribe members in Oklahoma in the 1920s. Until DiCaprio, Scorsese and De Niro decided it didn’t nearly capture the complicity of law enforcement and the white community that were so indifferent to the plight of the Osage, whose leaders basically bribed J Edgar Hoover’s new division to get involved. It perpetuated the “white savior” narrative that has been a staple of Hollywood westerns forever, and did little to capture the Osage side of the story. Here, he explains why this epiphany that set back the project years and led him to switch from hero to villain, was so worth it and resulted in a movie many have called a masterpiece with staying power.

Clayton Davis Senior Awards Editor The SAG Awards nominations provided an exciting blend of usual suspects and stunning omissions. For some awards season strategists — particularly the ones behind critically adored films like “Anatomy of a Fall” and “May December” — there’s no choice but to ask, “what happened?” The SAG Awards’ pearl anniversary brought expected mentions for Oscar contenders such as the two summer smash hits “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer,” leading the tally for all movies with four nominations each. In addition, the crime epic “Killers of the Flower Moon” and the satirical dramedy “American Fiction” managed three mentions.

Natalie Portman has spoken about method acting in a recent interview, describing it as a “luxury women can’t afford.”Speaking with The Wall Street Journal, Portman explained how she has never employed the approach, which typically involves an actor undergoing a range of techniques to help them deeply identify with their character emotionally, physically and mentally, often by changing their routines and thoughts to be more like their character.While Portman explained how she does seriously prepare for her roles, including an intensive training programme and a strict diet for her role as a ballerina in Black Swan, she said: “I don’t think that children or partners would be very understanding of, you know, me making everyone call me ‘Jackie Kennedy’ all the time”, referring to her portrayal of the former US First Lady in the 2016 biopic, Jackie.She continued: “No matter the circumstances of a woman’s life, whether she’s very privileged or underprivileged, the uniting factor is the limits placed by society on what women can be, how they can behave, what they’re allowed to say and think and feel and do.”“So every woman’s story is trying to break free of [that],” she added.While there are many well-known cases of male actors using this approach, including Robert De Niro working for hours as a cab driver before Martin Scorcese’s Taxi Driver, or Leonardo DiCaprio camping in the wilderness and eating raw bison to prepare for The Revenant, there are examples of female stars taking on the method acting technique.When Lady Gaga played Patrizia Reggiani in House Of Gucci, her preparation for the role meant nine months speaking in an Italian accent, even off camera.
