I absolutely loved this film! It portrays the life of author Truman Capote and the writing of his famous work, 'In Cold Blood'. This is ideal research material for anyone studying the book at AS level or above. It is moving and thought provoking without being overly sentimental. I watched 'Imfamous' too which covers the same story but i found the film irritating; there was no coherent storyline and I didn't feel any sympathy for the characters whereas 'Capote' allowed a real emotional attachment. Highly recommended
