The Sleeping Critic - Capote

1959. Open with a scene of murder most foul. A girl lying dead from an apparent gunshot wound discovered by a friend. Cut to a swanky party, a group of party goers listening intently to the weird guy from Boogie Nights. What's the deal with those weird glasses? Does he have some kind of sinus issue? It's the story behind the story "In Cold Blood."  Truman Capote is one of those guys whose books they made you read in high school. Excellent acting, excellent story, and an excellent nap. After the opening, I awoke to Capote talking to some woman, Capote talking to a police officer, and Capote talking to some guy in prison. I'm assuming there were no explosions or big fight scenes because I would have woken up for those.  Roll the final credits for one last awakening. Sue said it deserves 3 stars and based on her synopsis and how refreshed I felt afterwards, I agree. Until next time, I'm the Sleeping Critic.
