I didn't much like this movie..
Because to me Capote comes off as a despicable, weak human being. I didn't feel the slightest shed of sympathy for Capote's "friend", being the killer that he is (or for Capote himself, for that matter). I think the movie failed utterly to let the audience relate to Capote and feel sympathy for the victims.
Throughout the movie, I was waiting for a moment that would endear Perry to me, but I was disappointed to learn that such a moment would never quite come. More oddly, it's like they didn't even try. Perry felt bad about the nice man being afraid of him? How does that lead to you slitting his throat?
As a way of telling a true story, this movie succeeds brilliantly. The acting, atmosphere and writing are great. I guess I just don't much care for the original story itself.
Does anyone else feel this way?
