Capote - yeah right!
Can someone please tell me what the hell Capote is on about?
I thought right skive off work on a sunny Monday afternoon, cos’ its Al’s birthday and catch a movie - Capote.
I guessed that it was going to be one of those artsy movie types(I should’ve learnt from my experience with The Hours - yeah the hours I spent sleeping through the film.Damn film still gives me goosebumps). But I thought it got nominated for an Oscar(again I should have learnt from my experience with ‘The Hours’ - more like ‘The Horror’), so how wrong can the movie go. Very wrong.
How did Phillip Seymour Hoffman win an Oscar - I don’t know. I guess talking in high-pitched voice compared to animating a gay sex scene(Brokeback Mountain) does it for the people that decide. Yes still very sore that Brokeback Mountain only won Best Director. The only role I can picture him in is that whiny reporter in Red Dragon where he gets set on fire on a wheelchair and rolled down a hill while he BURNS to death.
Only upside - the violence - and I’m really not a gory type of person. Although I did step on a headless pigeon this morning. It was early and I wasn’t looking.
All in all wasted afternoon. Should have gone for Ice Age 2.
