Synopsis
Philip Seymour Hoffman is the reason to see "Capote," a meandering study of the defining years in the early '60s during which the author wrote "In Cold Blood" - the famous story about the murders of the Clutters, a well-known farm family in Holcomb, Kansas. Besides getting all the outward eccentricities of the character right, he unmasks Truman Capote's insecurities and delves into his darker side. His relationship with convicted killer Perry Smith is riveting, while the film is less compelling when it strays too far from this thread.
