About this product

Product Information

Bennett Miller's CAPOTE is a finely crafted biopic that recounts a historic chapter in American history and, in the process, captures the unraveling of a truly gifted mind. Starring an extraordinary Philip Seymour Hoffman as the legendary Truman Capote, the film concentrates on the seven-year period during which Capote wrote his groundbreaking nonfiction novel, IN COLD BLOOD. One morning in 1959, Capote learned of a horrific family killing in Holcomb, Kansas. With the intention of writing an article for the New Yorker, he traveled to the Midwest with his good friend Nell Harper Lee (Catherine Keener), who was about to publish her own masterwork, TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD. Somehow, the soft-spoken, eccentric writer managed to earn the trust of local authorities--most notably, reserved K.B.I. agent Alvin Dewey (Chris Cooper). But when the two killers were caught and returned to Kansas to await trial, Capote began to form an intense emotional bond with one of them, Perry Smith (Clifton Collins, Jr.). The pressure of this connection threatened to push an already fragile Capote into the darkest recesses of himself. His only hope was to finish the book that he was convinced would shock the nation and change the course of writing forever.Hoffman's tender portrayal of the writer is a remarkable achievement. He slips into the skin of Capote flawlessly, allowing viewers to experience Capote's inner turmoil for themselves. Keener and Cooper once again deliver compassionate performances. But it is Miller's overall vision, based on a script by Dan Futterman and beautifully realized by his technical collaborators (especially director of photography Adam Kimmel and production designer Jess Gonchor), that makes CAPOTE an Oscar-worthy production.

    One Writer's Power Over One Mass Murderer

    In 1959 Truman Capote (Philip Seymour Hoffman) was a columnist for the New Yorker magazine. One day he read a newspaper article about a mass murder in small town Kansas. The multiple murder intrigued Capote. So he asked his editor at the New Yorker magazine, then William Shawn (Bob Balaban), to allow him to write a longer article about the evolving mass murder case. Truman Capote felt the true story should be made into one as provocative as fiction. The Kansas mass murder was so inexplicably brutal. It occurred in a town of people where it was a strain to even imagine a mass murder could happen there. After his editor agreed, Capote ventured to the town taking with him a close friend Harper Lee (Catherine Keener)--novelist of "To Kill a Mockingbird." Capote's (gay) difference was ...

    Truman Capote INHABITS Philip Seymour Hoffman

    I was bowled over by Philip Seymour Hoffman's portrayal of Capote. He was masterful and had every detail of Truman Capote's quirky mannerisms and fine nuances. He truly deserved his Oscar for this role! The film covers the seven-year period of Capote's life when he was researching and writing "In Cold Blood." Clifton Collins, Jr. is thoroughly convincing as the disturbed young murderer, Perry Smith, while Chris Cooper plays the role of Alvin Dewey (the Kansas Bureau of Investigation agent who was primarily responsible for breaking the case) with a certain remoteness and sharp eye on Capote's motives. Catherine Keener is fascinating as Capote's dear friend Harper Lee (whose own novel, "To Kill a Mockingbird," is soon to hit the market) as she accompanies Capote on some of his research ...

    Cold souls

    Capote, the movie, takes us to the dark side of the American story in more ways than one. It’s a tale about the way narcissism can poison relationships and twist values. It deals with the causes and aftermath of a terrible, multiple murder but it also questions the pursuit of fame and success. It tells us: "Be careful what you wish for". Born in Alabama in 1924, Truman Capote, wanted fame and success more than most and he achieved it early. He has been described as the most perfect writer of his generation. But as an extravagant gay man, Capote was fascinated for public attention long before the concept of celebrity was part of the American culture. On Nov. 16, 1959, Truman Capote noticed an article in a newspaper about a Kansas family who were killed. Immediately, he telephoned the ...

    Makes Me Want to Read The Book

    Philip Seymour Hoffman's performance was so good as was Clifton Collins Jr. as Perry that I now may read the book. These two actors formed a convincing bond in this film about Truman Copote's book In Cold Blood. The first crime was the murders of a family of four in Kansas in 1959 by Perry Smith and Dick Hickock. The second crime was how Capote used these men to further his writing career by pretending to befriend them and getting them appeals only to let them hang in the end so he could finish his book. The film clearly showed Capote as a man who would do anything to make his book a success.

    Deserves all the praise it's received

    I didn’t even know what this movie was about when I saw it, but I wanted to see what all of the hype was about. After I watched the extras with the real Truman Capote, I could understand why Philip Seymour Hoffman received so much praise. He did a great job imitating Capote even down to the pauses he took in his speech. As for the story itself, I thought it was done from an interesting perspective. Though I hadn’t recognized his name, I had read Capote’s book, IN COLD BLOOD. To see a movie, not about the book but about the writer as he’s writing the book, was different. I liked it and feel that it deserves all the press it has received.
