"Notorious": Sing once in a lifetime

Should you pity him or envy him?
He clearly looks like a weak man, with a short stature, stunted like a dwarf, and speaks like a woman. He was abandoned by his parents at his aunt's house as a child, and later his mother committed suicide. The feeling of being abandoned must never leave him. He said that this society will not be good to the weak, so to become stronger, he is a first-class man.
But anyone who saw him for the first time would think he was weak. Dress fancy like a woman and love big scarves. How can there be a righteous gentleman? Humph, sissy.
Until I heard him say that he had so many star close friends. These stars have no scruples about him, say anything, and women are his best friends. This is a kind of vanity satisfaction, especially when his audience is ordinary people.
But this is nothing, the director arranged for him such a lover, which makes people jealous. The new version of 007 played his lover, although, he said, the most painful thing in the world is that you finally meet the person who belongs to you, but you can't stay together for a long time. He said such a beautiful thing so calmly, without any heartbeat, It's as indifferent as saying have you eaten - please dodge a little bit, after all, it's the words that come out of your heart - but this actor still endowed the murderer with everything beautiful.
He is handsome, tall, neat in appearance, likes art, and always reads a book - even if he is in prison and not far from death, his eyes are so pure that they are not stained with dust. All the best things are associated with him. But in fact, this is a murderer. Everything he had, Capote didn't have.
But then Capote became his mainstay. Four years of continuous writing. 2 times a week. They bond after Capote tells him about childhood loneliness. Capote said, I respect you. It was the best word he had ever heard. The worst thing he had ever heard was when his father, who had been expecting, appeared in front of him, kicked away his paintings, and scolded him for being useless. He wanted to kill his father, but didn't. A contemptuous look made him later kill someone. Appreciation makes him love someone. If you understand these two things, you will die. Life in a hurry.
This director, he is very naughty, he let Capote deal with the star girlfriends, said to everyone, you are my best friend, I will never tell your secret, and cut the camera to the next conversation, The word has been spread, and Capote is still the same rhetoric. He's so good at making plays.
This director is still very cruel, still a cross montage, one side is the hanging, the other side is the death row prisoner with pure eyes, warm smile, sincere expression, soft melting voice, talking about the guitar, singing to his lover. Recalling that, Capote was lying on the sofa in a remote home, listening to the singing from the gramophone, wiping away tears. What memories are what reality, only tears are the same. He couldn't help it.
What else to say. Who deserves such a song. Even from a death row inmate. What else can I do but be jealous of Capote. How many people have heard such a song in their life, it is so beautiful and shuddering, from a lover with all the trust and dependence.
Later, he wrote "Cold Blood" based on the murder, which sold well and gained both fame and fortune. But also a swan song. His friend Harper Lee said that star Judy Garland once said that every time you sing a song, you get older, and the same is true for writers. Every time you write, you lose a little life. Capote drained his enthusiasm once, and you should know why.
It is said that there is a bird in the world called the thorn bird, which sings only once in its life. Pell, the murderer, was fortunate enough to be the thorn bird. Capote too, saw his thorn bird, such a swan song.

    Truman Capote: Do you think everyone keeps calling me "lady" to be mean, or can they honestly not tell?

  • Nelle Harper Lee: America is not a country where the small gesture goes noticed. We're not a country like France, where charm -- something light or effervescent -- can survive. We want everything you have, and we want it as fast as you can turn it out.
