capote

philip seymour hoffman, one of my favorite character actors, transforms himself into the titular role. having read the book and researched the hoopla that surrounded “in cold blood,” the movie was a near can’t miss for me from an interest standpoint. even without that bias, the film itself delivers on all levels, even if some audience members may be a bit confused with the lack of background and context provided in the early parts of the movie.

i'm not a fan of praising actors who play/imitate real people, but hoffman does an amazing job with the role of capote.
