"Capote" The movie and the class

This movie, "Capote", from Bennett Miller, is very connected with the topics seen in English class. The movie is about the way in wich Capote starts to write his story: "In Cold Blood".  We can see how he uses journalism to write novels. His interviews with Perry, for example, mean a lot; not only because these are journalistic actions but because we can see that the closer he gets to the criminal, the closer he can understand him and describe him. Only with actions and interviews he is able to make a complete and deep description of a character. Capote manages to create a long story with facts and testimony, a book that it is always atached to what really happens. But at the same time a very deep and descriptive writting. A non-fiction novel.
