cold-blooded hypocrisy

Capote recorded "cold-blooded", and also recorded his hypocrisy and hypocrisy.
Damn, he finally realized it.
Therefore, after writing , I can no longer write.
When he was deeply touched by the murderer Perry - actually another self - from sympathy and pity, until he finally realized that he had carefully arranged the success, it was as cold-blooded as the murderer Perry, and even more hypocritical, When shameful, he began to disgust and get rid of Perry, hoping that he would go to the gallows soon, in fact, what he wanted to get rid of was shameful himself.
The success of the book also pronounced his death sentence.
Perhaps he drank not only to escape conscience and moral sobriety, but also to realize that he could have both honesty and hypocrisy, and use both so well and so successfully.
Perhaps it was this terrifying ability that he wanted to get rid of.
In the movie, he explained why he went to visit Perry and why he wrote the book "Cold Blood". He said that in this murder case he saw two Americans, one was comfortable and conservative, the other was violent and brutal, and the In this case, he saw the combination of the two, and he wanted to present this state of two polarities.
This is actually a hint to Capote.
