Truman - a terrific portrayal

Seymour Hoffman is a really talented actor and he makes it a point to demonstrate that with each and every movie. But Capote is really a class apart, with the celebrated, equally hated and loved author's portrayal touching heart of the viewers. Also, Clifton Collins Jr. is simply a delight to watch as Perry Smith (I would look forward for Daniel Craig's performance in the same role "Infamous"). Capote is to be remembered for a compelling storytelling style, terrific acting and the harsh realism harping the viewers. As an IMDB viewer puts it, its refreshingly different. Truman describes his attraction to Smith as a kinship wherein they seemed to have grown up in the same house and left simultaneously, one through the front door and one through the back. That summarizes the complexity of the relationship of the two main characters and describes how the film is way different than the bandwagon. Highly recommended!
