Goofs

Perry is depicted as being substantially taller than Truman when in reality they were roughly the same height. This may have been done purposely to give Perry a more intimidating presence next to the frailness of Capote.

When both prisoners are brought in to be hanged, it is raining hard. Even though the distance traveled in the rain is short, there are no visible signs of the rain on their clothes or face.

Quotes

Truman Capote: Do you think everyone keeps calling me "lady" to be mean, or can they honestly not tell?
