Perhaps due to the limitation of the medium of film, this film cannot fully describe Capote's mental journey of writing "In Cold Blood", so watching this film is like watching Hoffman's one-man show and watching the character he created.
It's just that Heath Ledger, who competed for the Golden Globe and the Oscar for best actor in the same year, was called "young Marlon Brando" by Ang Lee. The amazing boy, the outstanding performance in "Brokeback Mountain" failed to give him Bring good luck. Just like "The Shawshank Redemption" vs "Forrest Gump", Mickey Rourke vs Sean Penn and so on, it's just as embarrassing.
