I saw Capote tonight. It was good. When I got home I dropped my keys at the doors, while I rushed to my laptop to read his wikipedia entry and order In Cold Blood in hardcover.

Jeff said... One of my favorite novels. Ever. From the looks of the trailer, Phillip Seymour Hoffman pulls him off pretty well. 10:48 PM Zach said... Jeff, his performace was perfect. 10:51 PM Alex said... I did the same things but in different order. Read wikipedia, saw the movie and bought the hard cover this morning. A great film and Hoffman is Oscar material. 10:25 AM yp said... This is a great interview George Plimpton did with Truman Capote in 1966, shortly after he'd written In Cold Blood: http://www.nytimes.com/books/97/12/28/home/capote-interview.html He really goes into his methods of gathering information for the book, which is fascinating, because when reading it you'll realize he's removed himself from the writing entirely. 12:11 AM Post a Comment |
