Capote is a cool and polished hall of mirrors reflecting the ways in which Truman Capote came to write (and be written by) In Cold Blood.

Hoffman goes beyond impersonation to something close to possession.
Steve Murray, Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Skillfully and economically put together.
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
Fresh
The almost perfectly realized Capote -- stumbling only in the lack of shading it gives Keener's and Greenwood's characters -- offers a sobering glimpse at what the author had to give up of his soul to achieve his success.
Peter Howell, Toronto Star

A meditation on the artist's obligations to the art and to society and lines that blur when you cross them.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
