Grann's investigative journalism is truly amazing. The book is so well written, I couldn't put it down. No book had ever enthralled but also angered me more.
Scorsese is making a movie based on this book and I am soooo scared they will butcher it. I really, really hope they do this incredible story justice...the Osage Indians deserve NO LESS!
Grann's Lost City of Z was also fascinating, movie rendition completely missed the mark. Here's the hoping Hollywood doesn't ruin one of the BEST books ever.
Edit: Yes I know Scorsese is great and I like his shit, I'm definitely watching the film...my point is that the story deserves to be told as accurately as possible because it's an important part of history no one talks about...just hoping we do history some justice..that's all.
