Rotten Tomatoes: 99% (Critics), 72% (Audience) It's a beautiful story of an odd-couple friendship that makes you look around and say, "OK, which one of my writer friends is gonna help me get famous?"Ĭast: Dee Wallace, Henry Thomas, Peter Coyote, Robert MacNaughton, and Drew Barrymore In the film, Philip Seymour Hoffman (who won the Oscar) and Catherine Keener (who was nominated for one) play the literary duo as Capote investigates a set of brutal murders in Kansas that will become the basis for his iconic genre-creator.

No college genre lit course on true crime could be complete without Truman Capote's In Cold Blood, and no eighth-grade English class could be complete without Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird. Rotten Tomatoes: 89% (Critics), 82% (Audience) Cast: Philip Seymour Hoffman, Catherine Keener, Clifton Collins Jr., Bruce Greenwood, Mark Pellegrino, Amy Ryan, and Chris Cooper
