Making a Killing in 'Killers of the Flower Moon'
‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ is preoccupied with plot and not on the greater struggle of the Osage.
The Home Town Girl (1919)

Because John does not have enough money to marry, however, Nell encourages him to go to New York, where he becomes a successful antique salesman for Jellaby and Co. Steve Ratling, a vindictive discharged salesman, convinces John to gamble the $300 he took in on a large sale, because he didn't get a deserved raise. After John loses the money, he disappears, leaving a note to Jellaby saying that his pocket was picked, but that he will repay the money.
