Capote(2005)

I was disappointed with this film. Don't get me wrong, it's superbly filmed and the period atmosphere was excellently captured. But it was too well-done.

When you look at a film like this you realise why we have the current lo-fi craze now in the early two-ten's. Everything is just far too clean and well kept. And this includes two criminals, esepcially Perry Smith who only shows balanced consideration of things with zero psychosis, which is just impossible.

It's possible to enjoy this film only if you havn't read "In Cold Blood", but it wouldn't be by much.

Philip Seymour-Hoffman won an Oscar for his rle as Truman Capote. Great. Well, let me say that it's categorically overacted, and that Capote comes across a real tosser. It's inbelieveable that he could have been that good a writer with that so affected personality.

Thumbs down.
