I sat through this whole movie without even pestering anybody for the time. And that is saying a lot for a movie that has very little action, no sex, and the flat, desolate Kansas landscape as its central exterior backdrop. I'm late with this endorsement, it's playing in few theaters now. But if you want to see one of the best acting performances of this decade, I urge you to see this flick. One thought crossed my mind watching this movie, having read both To Kill a Mockingbird (written by Harper Lee) and In Cold Blood (written, of course, by Capote; the creation of which is the central focus of the movie)... what were the chances two of the greatest witers in the history of the universe would grow up next door to each other? This film depicts the close relationship between Harper Lee and Capote, friends since childhood. Capote never finished another novel of any sort after In Cold Blood, and Lee never wrote another novel after To Kill A Mockingbird. Capote's finality we toss off to alcoholic insanity...Lee? Mockingbird is one of the greatest books ever written. Is it possible it was written by Capote? Why would such an amazing author never produce another work whatsoever? Even Capote produced flashes of genius through his alcholic fogs (Answered Prayers). Just a thought.
