One has to be very careful in pinpointing the problems with this film, although I think I'm safe in saying that it's a bit pedestrian. This may be to do with the early set-up of Capote, famous author. One never gets a relative sense of his effervesence, fame or literary worth before he begins work on In Cold Blood, the novel on which the film is built.
No the problems lie in having to sympathise with an author who finds himself in an allegiance and possibly abandonment to a man who has killed other men. It's extremely difficult to see how Toby Jones' Capote can have done anything other than predicate his relationship with Daniel Craig's Perry Smith on this fact as an inseparable part of all Smith was. I found this awkward at best.
I'm not sure the actors sit perfectly with this either. Craig seems a bit stiff and thought Jones is magnetic he never got under my skin. A long roster of heavyweights play similarly gauged society types well enough but again, I didn't get the connection or any latter pathos. Sandra Bullock might be an anomaly, playing Harper Lee (ironically) with a light touch amidst the melodrama. Douglas McGrath doesn't help with prosaic filming - it looks made for TV. 4/10
