The real 'Real Housewives': 'Capote' looks at author's feud with society mavens
People are also reading…
Tom Hollander knew he didn’t look or sound like Truman Capote, so he searched for bits and pieces they both shared and tried to meet the character “somewhere in the middle.â€
In “Feud: Capote vs. the Swans,†he focused on some of the bigger moments of the author’s story in order to embrace the quieter ones.

DVD REVIEW: 'The Inventor' goes inside the mind of a genius
“The Inventor†wasn’t nominated for Best Animated Film in this year’s Oscar race but that doesn’t mean it’s not worth watching.
Artistically, directors Jim Capobianco and Pierre-Luc Granjon use two kinds of animation to show how the genre’s wheels turn and what they produce. The subject is Leonardo da Vinci, the multi-hyphenate who enjoyed taking flights of fancy to understand the way man works.
As inventive as it is telling, “The Inventor†even brings da Vinci’s celebrated portrait, Mona Lisa, into the picture. She gets a song — and a prominent role in the artist’s life.
