Synopsis: Capote (2005)
Synopis: On November 15, 1959, the brutal murder of a family in a small Kansas town sent shockwaves through the nation and captured the attention of one of the most distinctive minds of our time. One-of-a-kind author Truman Capote was sent to Kansas to pen an article about the crimes for The New Yorker magazine. He ended up writing one of the most celebrated books of the century. Capote follows Truman Capote (Hoffman) on his odyssey to create the landmark bestseller "In Cold Blood." With signature style and mordant wit - and his friend Harper Lee (Keener) in tow - Capote attempts to charm the locals and work his way into the story behind the murders. He's soon shocked, however, to find himself forming a friendship with one of the killers, Perry Smith (Collins). As the book nears completion and execution day approaches, Capote finds himself torn in directions he never anticipated and is forever changed by his experiences.Awards: Capote (2005)

Cons: better if you had read Capote's book "In Cold Blood"
The acting by Semour was Academy Winning and so unlike any of his other screen characters. The movie gives you an overall picture of the man and the artist. If you have read his book the movie flows better a friend of mine that had not read the book said it took longer to get the storyline but I found it overall good but not a movie to watch if you are depressed or have the blues ...
