Lance - great to have you! Secondly, this is a terrific study of how some directors can get much more from actors than others. So many modern movie actors are basically models with some talent - good-looking blank canvasses. Heather Graham is the perfect example here - she's been dreadful many times, and occasionally perfect and wonderful. Also, pure realism is repellent. You're correct.

Capote didn't shrink on TV! He had two of the most famous TV appearences any writer ever had. The first when he upstaged Mailer and said famously about Kerouac "That's not writing, that's just typing..." The second when he showed up loaded on a local New York morning show and said he had slept with all his analysts...I remember watching that like the lunar landing, an amazing alien was on TV
