What is The Capote Tapes about? Toggle content

In the glamorous world of 1950s and 60s New York, Truman Capote was the toast of the town, known for his literary genius and socialite status. But beneath the glittering facade lay a complex and troubled soul, as revealed in the newly discovered interviews with his friends and enemies in The Capote Tapes. This documentary takes an intimate look at Capote's life, both on and off the page, and situates him in the pantheon of 20th-century American literature.
