Additional InformationThis stylish and powerful drama adapted from Truman Capote's novel about a shocking real-life murder case examines two aimless drifters, Perry Smith (Robert Blake) and Dick Hickock (Scott Wilson), who target the home of Kansas businessman Herbert Clutter for a simple robbery. However, after breaking into the house and not finding any money, Smith and Hickock brutally kill the entire Clutter family. The murderous duo escape the scene of the crime and head for Mexico, but they eventually go back to the States, ultimately returning to Kansas. After being chased for almost a year, the troubled drifters are captured and sentenced to death. This daring cinematic portrait of Smith and Hickock employs flashbacks to fully examine what drives an individual to commit thoughtless and brutal crimes; the film also features a highly innovative jazz score by Quincy Jones to capture the moody and ominous atmosphere. Capote's own role as researcher-narrator of the young criminals' intense friendship, fantasies, and troubled lives is effectively brought to the screen in this striking and groundbreaking drama.

  • True story.

    True story of multiple murder in Kansas. Based on book by Truman Capote. More authentic account than later film version. Black and white which adds a docu style image. Not sensationalist.
