This is the official tie-in Shooting Script to 'one of the best films of the year' ("Rolling Stone"), starring Philip Seymour Hoffman as Capote on his six-year investigation of a cold-blooded killer. It's 1959, and the feted author of "Breakfast at Tiffany's" is desperate for a new subject. Deep in rural Kansas a family of four is brutally murdered. In an unlikely conjunction, the flamboyant, homosexual Capote sets out to investigate the case - and becomes transfixed by the complex personality of one of the murderers in particular. The title of the resulting book, "In Cold Blood", aptly describes Capote's own questionable motives as he waits almost impatiently for the death sentence to be carried out so that he can finish his masterpiece. Both the film and Hoffman's uncanny performance as Truman Capote already tipped for major awards including Golden Globes and Oscars. In addition to the full screenplay, this volume contains: a foreword by Gerald Clarke, author of the biography, "Capote", and an excerpt from the book; Q and As with writer Dan Futterman and director Bennett Miller; background notes on "Capote" and "In Cold Blood"; 8 pages of color stills; and complete cast and crew credits.
