Capote DVD

A quietly powerful biographical drama exploring creativity, obsession and the personal cost of turning another person's tragedy into a celebrated work of literature.

From Dad's Collection

This copy comes from my dad's personal collection. Dad was an actor and scriptwriter with a genuine love of world cinema, independent film and memorable performances. His collection remains an important part of Kate's Treasures15, with each title now looking for a new home where it can continue to be appreciated.

Directed by Bennett Miller, Capote follows American writer Truman Capote as his fascination with the murder of a Kansas family develops into the research that would eventually become In Cold Blood.

Featuring Philip Seymour Hoffman and Catherine Keener, the film examines the increasingly difficult boundary between Capote's professional ambition and his emotional involvement with the people at the centre of the case. Hoffman's carefully controlled performance captures both Capote's distinctive public personality and the insecurity, calculation and contradiction beneath it.

An exceptional collector title for admirers of Philip Seymour Hoffman, biographical cinema and intelligent character drama exploring ambition, responsibility and the darker side of creative obsession.
