Plot Summary:Famed writer Truman Capote, southern born and bred but now part of the New York City social circle, is growing weary of his current assignment of writing autobiographical type pieces for the New Yorker. After reading a newspaper article about the just occurred November 14, 1959 cold blooded murders of the Clutter family in their rural Kansas home, Truman feels compelled to write about that event as his next article. So he and his personal assistant Nelle Harper Lee, also a southern born New Yorker and an aspiring writer of her own, head to Kansas to research the story first-hand. Truman hopes to use his celebrity status to gain access to whomever he needs, such as to Laura Kinney, a friend of the Clutter daughter she who discovered the bodies, and to Alvin Dewey, the lead police investigator and also a Clutter family friend. If his celebrity doesn't work, Truman will grease the wheels by whatever means necessary. When the police eventually charge suspects, two young men named Dick Hickcock and Perry Smith, Truman uses those same tactics to gain access to them. Truman's fascination with the story makes him believe that he can revolutionize writing by expanding the germ of the article into what he calls a non-fiction novel. His personal involvement also changes as he grows emotionally attached to Perry, the seemingly sensitive and thus probable submissive in the criminal pairing, thus Truman becoming part of the story itself. Article or non-fiction novel, Truman knows that he has to take it to its natural conclusion, something which he cannot force. But also missing are the details of the November 14, 1959 event itself, something that neither Dick or Perry have divulged even in testimony.
因为隐隐知道会发生什么，所以《冷血》是我一直想读但又不敢读的作品。Philip Seymour Hoffman完美地化身了Capote，呈现了角色的复杂性，额外一星我要交给他。可惜天妒英才。
看完《冷血》再来看这部影片，能更好地理解为什么卡波特说那是会影响人一生的故事。Perry被绞死的那一段真的让人深思，实打实地感受到了难过，作为和Perry有多次深入交流的当事人卡波特感受应当更加强烈
那年我看到了两个天才死了，后来我意识到是三个，也许将来会是四个
结合这部电影再回想《冷血》，书也是Capote本人的自省。
很理解卡波特，从真实事件中取材写作，内心总是不安，偶尔，我们写得太好了，害怕那些真实经历过此事的人揭穿我们的夸大。偶尔，我觉得我亏欠了我写过的每一个人。即使写作的出发点是对谁的爱，最后总不可避免被转化为对作品的自恋，the great love affair between Truman and Truman. 我怕我本质是个极端虚伪和残忍的人。（这也是为何哈珀李的角色如此讨人喜欢，她的虚荣心要少那么多，最后也没有跳进这名望之海，亦免于溺死其中。和哈珀李在一起的他，也比单独存在时讨人喜欢。）
霍夫曼真是个可怕的变色龙型演员，最当之无愧的奥斯卡影帝之一。
不仅把创作的过程拍出来，还把主角的人性通过犯人投射了出来，更交代出了卡波特追求成功的疯狂与现实的矛盾最终成为了他崩溃的开端。
愛比死更冷。
审视的视角和需要共情的对象是永远的话题
看了一半原著过来看capote电影 capote好像看到了另一个世界的他 他会不会想如果他们两个的成长故事被调换 他就会成为Perry 而Perry会成为他 看到Perry被处刑 他会不会觉得是他自己死了
菲利普·塞默·霍夫曼和杰西·普莱蒙，脸盲得分不清楚。倆人都是被平凡外表耽误的好演员。7.5
神一般的演技，感觉男主已经把半条命都注入了角色，演成这样要折寿了吧。
让人流更多泪的不是未应验的祈祷,而是应验的.
霍夫曼的演出让人无法忘记
So sensitive,I feel like he could forgive everything.这么敏感悲悯的人却为了名声亲手把两位罪犯送上邢台，很好地解释了他的结局
一个关于凝视深渊的故事
8.0/10演員(特別是主角菲利普西蒙霍夫曼)神乎其技。電影從頭到尾都散發著憂愁感，卡波提打從一開始就深知自己注定要辜負派瑞的信任(一旦書完成他便沒有幫他上訴的必要)，卻直到最後才為此真心痛苦，也不知他在"冷血"後再未能完成長篇作品，是否是因為這份痛苦。
美国传奇作家卡波特的纪实作品《冷血》是如何诞生的，男主的演技的确是没得说。
for Hoffman🐮
阴冷无情的镜头，真正不动声色地传达了最大的恐怖：与自身道德的纠缠。既愧于自己对佩里的利用，也愧于自己竟对残忍的杀手产生共情，于是在最后他发现从克拉特一家到两位凶手，死去的所有人自始至终都不曾被他真正放在心上过。
这部电影看得我好“冷”。我就被男猪给吸引住了。菲利普·塞默·霍夫曼扮演的卡波特实在太霸道了，那种需要找人来赞美自己，发自骨子里的自私，自我，自傲，自恋，残忍以及伪善，让人不寒而栗。他自以为把杀人犯玩弄在股掌，但事实上同时他自己也被套进去而无法自拔了。奥斯卡影帝实至名归。
没讲明白，
