I have not attempted to register yet because I am making sure first that the people in the Springfield area will be able to stay long enough to do that tour. Usually our bus leaves around 1230 to go back home. I am pretty confident I can help you with the form to register, so please send me an email if you would like me to do that and include a phone number so I can be on my computer and on the phone with you at the same time.

Best,

Sandy Burgess

Killers of the Flower Moon

Rated R

Run time 3 hours and 26 minutes

Osage Nation elders bury a ceremonial pipe, mourning their descendants'

assimilation into White American society. Wandering through their Oklahoma

reservation, during the annual "flower moon" phenomenon of fields of

blooms,[14] several Osage find oil gushing from the ground. The tribe

becomes wealthy, as it retains mineral rights and members share in oil-lease

revenues, though law requires white court-appointed legal guardians to

manage the money of full and half-blood members, assuming them

"incompetent".[b]

In 1919, Ernest Burkhart returns from World War I to live with his brother

Byron and uncle William King Hale on Hale's large reservation ranch. Hale, a

reserve deputy sheriff and cattle rancher, poses as a friendly benefactor of

the Osage, speaking their language and bestowing gifts. Ernest and Byron

commit armed robbery against the Osage. Ernest meets Mollie Kyle, an Osage

whose family owns oil headrights, via his day job as a cab driver. A romance

develops, and the two marry in a ceremony mixing Roman Catholic and Osage

traditions. Over time, they raise three children.

Hale secretly orders the contract killings of multiple wealthy Osage. He

explains that Ernest will inherit more headrights if more of Mollie's family

dies. Mollie is diabetic, and her mother Lizzie is ill. After Mollie's

sister Minnie dies of a mysterious illness, Hale orders Byron to kill

Mollie's other sister, the rebellious Anna. Lizzie and the Osage council

blame the reservation's white residents and urge the tribe to fight back.

A newsreel of the 1921 Tulsa race massacre, in which white people destroyed

a black community and killed numerous residents, causes further concern

amongst the Osage that they could suffer similarly. Lizzie sees her

ancestors welcome her to the afterlife as she dies. Hale orders Ernest to

arrange the murder of Henry Roan, Mollie's first husband. However, Ernest

botches the assassination and Hale paddles him inside a Masonic Temple as

punishment.

Since Hale is the local political boss, and both the local sheriff and

judges are in his pocket, no investigations are made. An Osage Nation

representative seeking to lobby Congress is murdered in Washington, D.C.,

while private detective William J. Burns, who was discreetly hired by

Mollie, is attacked by Ernest and Byron, who run him off of the reservation.

Hale orders Ernest to murder Mollie's last surviving sister Reta and her

husband Bill by having criminal Acie Kirby blow up their house. As the last

surviving member of her family, Mollie inherits their headrights. Despite

her illness, she travels to Washington with an Osage delegation and asks

President Calvin Coolidge for help. Because of this, Hale orders Ernest to

poison Mollie's insulin to "slow her down". Mollie's condition worsens, and

Ernest exhibits similar symptoms after ingesting the poison himself.

Due to Mollie's lobbying, the Bureau of Investigation (BOI) sends Agent

Thomas Bruce White Sr. and assistants to investigate; they quickly discover

the truth. Hale tries to cover his tracks by murdering his own hitmen,

including Acie, but White arrests Hale and Ernest. While Ernest is being

interrogated, two agents are sent to question Mollie and find her near

death. They rush her to the hospital where the doctors discover that she has

been repeatedly poisoned and quickly notify White and the other agents.

Mollie recovers under the care of the staff.

White persuades Ernest to confess and turn state's evidence against his

uncle. W. S. Hamilton, Hale's attorney, tries to convince Ernest to claim he

was tortured and recant. However, after one of his daughters dies of

whooping cough, Ernest testifies against his uncle, wanting to be around for

his remaining family. Hale unsuccessfully tries to have his nephew murdered.

Mollie meets with Ernest after he testifies, and leaves him after he refuses

to admit to poisoning her.

A radio drama years later reveals the aftermath: Ernest and Hale were

convicted and received life sentences. Both were paroled after years of

incarceration, despite Osage protests to the parole board. Byron served no

prison time due to a hung jury.[c] The Shoun brothers, who gave Ernest the

poison for Mollie and were implicated in other "wasting deaths", were never

prosecuted due to lack of evidence. Mollie divorced Ernest, married a man

named John Cobb, and died of diabetes in 1937 at the age of 50. She was

buried with her parents, sisters and daughter. Her obituary did not mention

the Osage murders. The film closes with an overhead view of a 21st-century

Osage powwow dancing circle.

Ghost

Rating PG 13

Run time 2 hours & 7 minutes

Banker Sam Wheat and his girlfriend, artist Molly Jensen, renovate and move

into a Manhattan loft with the help of Sam's friend and co-worker Carl

Bruner. One night, after attending the theater with Molly, Sam is killed

when a mugger tries to steal his wallet. Sam is shocked to realize he is a

ghost, but when angels appear to take his soul to Heaven, he returns to

Molly.

Weeks later, in an effort to raise her spirits, Carl takes Molly for a walk.

When the mugger enters their apartment in search of something a few minutes

later, Sam scares their cat into attacking him and he flees. Sam follows the

mugger, Willie Lopez, back to his apartment, and learns that the mugging was

planned when Willie makes a call to an unknown person. He promises to return

to Sam and Molly's apartment to continue looking for what he came for.

After leaving Willie's apartment, Sam comes across charlatan Oda Mae Brown's

psychic reading parlor, where she works with her sisters. When Oda Mae hears

Sam's voice, she realizes she must have inherited her mother's true psychic

gift. Sam pesters Oda Mae by singing to her all night until she agrees to

tell Molly about Willie. Molly goes to the police, who have no criminal file

for Willie Lopez but they show her Oda Mae's lengthy record that includes

fraud charges and several aliases, leaving Molly disheartened.

Sam eventually discovers it was Carl who had Willie attack him to obtain his

book of bank passwords, in order to transfer laundered money for drug

dealers into one account under the fictitious name "Rita Miller". Determined

to protect Molly, Sam enlists the help of a poltergeist haunting the New

York City subway to teach him how to move physical objects. Afterwards, Sam

convinces Oda Mae to pose as "Rita Miller" and withdraw the money, which he

has her give to charity. Sam starts to haunt Carl, who becomes frantic to

find the money once he realizes it has been withdrawn. Carl visits Molly and

learns that Oda Mae was the person who initiated the withdrawal.

Sam warns Oda Mae and her sisters and instructs them to hide just before

Carl and Willie arrive. Sam terrorizes Willie until he runs screaming into

the street and is killed after being struck by a car. As Carl flees, demons

drag Willie's soul to Hell.

Sam and Oda Mae return to his apartment, where Sam levitates a penny towards

Molly to confirm his presence. After Molly calls the police, Oda Mae lets

Sam possess her body and he slow-dances with Molly, unaware that using her

body saps his energy. Carl forces his way into Molly's apartment while she

and Oda Mae flee upstairs. Carl holds Molly at gunpoint and demands the

money Oda Mae withdrew from the bank. Sam, now recovered, frees her and

pushes a heavy scaffold onto Carl, crippling him. In desperation, Carl

swings a metal hook at Sam before trying to escape through a window. The

hook swings back, shattering the window pane which slides down and fatally

impales Carl in the chest. The demons that took Willie's soul return to take

Carl's soul to Hell.

Sam finds Molly and Oda Mae and asks if they are alright. Molly can now hear

Sam, much to their surprise. Soon after, a Heavenly light fills the room,

revealing Sam's presence to both Oda Mae and Molly. Sam tells Oda Mae her

mother would be proud and tells Molly he loves her. They share a kiss and

their final goodbyes, and Sam walks into the light to join the angels in

Heaven.

Barbie

Rating PG 13

Run time 1 hour & 54 minutes

Stereotypical Barbie ("Barbie") and fellow dolls reside in Barbieland, a

matriarchal society populated by different versions of Barbies, Kens, and a

group of discontinued models who are treated like outcasts due to their

unconventional traits. While the Kens spend their days playing at the beach,

considering it their profession, the Barbies hold prestigious jobs in

science, politics, media, and so on. Beach Ken ("Ken") is only happy when he

is with Barbie, and seeks a closer relationship, but she rebuffs him in

favor of other activities and female friendships.

One evening at a dance party, Barbie is suddenly stricken with worries about

mortality. Overnight, she develops bad breath, cellulite, and flat feet,

disrupting her usual routines the next day. She seeks out Weird Barbie, a

disfigured doll, who tells her she must find the child playing with her in

the real world to cure her afflictions. Ken stows away in her convertible to

join her, to which Barbie reluctantly agrees.

Arriving at Venice Beach, Barbie punches a man for groping her, leading to

her and Ken's brief arrest. Alarmed by their presence, Mattel's CEO orders

their recapture. Barbie tracks down her owner, a teenage girl named Sasha,

who criticizes her for encouraging unrealistic beauty standards. Distraught,

Barbie discovers that Gloria, a Mattel employee and Sasha's mother,

inadvertently caused her existential crisis after Gloria began playing with

Sasha's old Barbie toys. Mattel attempts to put Barbie in a toy box for

remanufacturing, but she escapes with Gloria and Sasha's help and the three

travel to Barbieland with Mattel executives in pursuit.

Meanwhile, Ken learns about patriarchy and feels respected for the first

time. Returning to Barbieland before Barbie does, he persuades the other

Kens to take over, and the Barbies are indoctrinated into submissive roles,

such as agreeable girlfriends, housewives, and maids. Barbie arrives and

fails to convince everyone to return to the way things were. She becomes

depressed, but Gloria gives her a speech about society's conflicting

expectations of women, restoring Barbie's self-confidence.

With the assistance of Sasha, Weird Barbie, Allan, and the discontinued

dolls, Gloria's speech deprograms the Barbies from their indoctrination.

They then manipulate the Kens into fighting among themselves, distracting

them from enshrining male superiority into Barbieland's constitution, and

the Barbies regain power. Having now experienced systemic oppression for

themselves, the Barbies resolve to rectify the faults of their previous

society, emphasizing better treatment of the Kens and all outcasts.

Barbie and Ken apologize to each other, acknowledging their mistakes. Ken

bemoans his lack of purpose without Barbie, so she encourages him to find an

autonomous identity. Barbie, who remains unsure of her own identity, meets

with the spirit of Ruth Handler, Mattel co-founder and creator of the Barbie

doll, who explains that Barbie's story has no set ending and her

ever-evolving history surpasses her roots.

Barbie decides to become human and return to the real world, and is bidden

goodbye by the Barbies, Kens, and Mattel executives. Sometime later, Gloria,

her husband, and Sasha take Barbie, now going by the name "Barbara Handler",

to her first gynecologist appointment.
