I'm planning to see it today and I'll share my opinion with you all afterwards. But if Meg says it's good... That's all that really matters ;)

[Ravenous megin-sane]

hahah

well awesome.

[Shiri]

Well, I saw it. I must say I'm really disappointed by this year's academy nominated movies. I just expect a lot and end up thinking WTF?! It was okay, but definitely not great.

I'll have to watch it with mixed reviews like this so far...I think I have it somewhere amongst my files...

[S.E. Hardy]

I thought it was absolutely stunning.

[Ravenous megin-sane]

good. i'm glad someone agrees with me.

I saw it a couple of days ago and was quite impressed. I've allways been a fan of PSH (Phillip Seymour Hoffman) and never miss any of his movies (check out Punch Drunk Love). Winnipeg was the backdrop for this movie, it was nice to see my hometown featured.

I loved this movie. I read the book a few years ago and loved it as well so I was excited to see that they had made this movie--doubley so when I saw that Hoffman and Cathy Keener were in it. It showed beautifully how Capote suffered so greatly to produce his masterpiece.

 

If you haven't read In Cold Blood yet, I highly recommend it.

he was also in thebig lebowski, which makes me laugh

Phillip Seymour Hoffmin was amazing in Capote. Easily one of the most intense, well casted, well acted films I have seen.

 

The cast used to come into the Chapters I was working at when I lived in Winnipeg and they were filming. They were all really cool people, despite the fact that none of them were pleased with the weather.

 

But yes, Capote=stunning.

Saw it yesterday. I concur with those who've said it was great. I haven't seen that many movies with PSH, maybe 4 or so, but of those this performance was my favorite.

I enjoyed it as well.

Without a doubt it was a great movie. The novel is very good too. It's one of those movies that is good, but you don't really want to watch it again for a long long time.

[HoboFactory]

Plus they didn't overdo the whole gay thing, which would've been annoying and stupid.

[Ravenous megin-sane]

yeah, i agree

This one was incredible. I believed for the entire film that PSH was Capote, he definitely deserved the Oscar, that's for sure. And yes the book is very good. Unfortunately I've never read anything else of his. I really should.
