Two DeBaser reviews examine Bennett Miller's Capote (Italian title: Truman Capote: a sangue freddo). Critics praise Philip Seymour Hoffman's transformative performance and Miller's restrained, austere direction. The film is described as cold, melancholic, and morally disturbing. Recommended for viewers who accept slow, character-driven biopics.
