How the criminals are portrayed in the film


This is the film about how everything happened before and after he read the article, this was not the film to accompany the book 'In Cold Blood'


Unworried by their convictions, their death sentences. They also don’t seem very bothered by Capote, even though he takes pictures and thoroughly interviews them. When Perry is in prison he refuses to eat to try and kill himself.

Dick then thanks Capote for his new lawyer. But Dick wasn’t the one who interested Capote. Dick is shown as a one-dimensional figure. They both try and make Capote write about them ‘in a good light’.
Perry finds a copy of ‘in Cold Blood’ and reads it. This proves to him that Capote has been lying to him as Capote told him that he hadn’t started yet.



When Capote goes to meet the killers Dick is hateful towards Capote but Perry is deeply thankful and happy to see him again. Perry asks Capote to be at the Hanging, so that he can have a friend there when he is killed.
