There were two very worthwhile moments in this film but that an excellent film cannot make: near the beginning when he, almost wounded, says to Nelle, "I never lie."
Of course, we see lying is a common behavior.
Later on, there is a comment about two societies that usually are apart but in this rare instance came together: "regular" and criminally violent ones.
I didn't say the film was worthless, after all, just that I thought the portrayal of Capote shallow, which it was, with not enough scenes that stood out, one from another. Hoffman did as good a job as possible, given he didn't have much to say that was novel or wasn't endlessly repeated.
One can convey, in my opinion, a purposefulness in a film (or show boredom) w/out so slowing down and dumbing down a movie as to exasperate a viewer.
