In the spring of 1967 I believe, I was on a college choir tour that visited cities in 5 states. Three towns were in Kansas. We were performing in churches along the way, and were housed by church members overnight. Interestingly enough when we got ready to leave the next morning we found that at least half of us had been taken on the tour of the city including the cemetery where the victims of this crime were buried. At that time, I believe Mr. Capote's book was out, but the movie was made some time later. I was part of the "other half" and was puzzled why anyone would think that this was a "highlight" of their city. This book was one of the first fact based gruesome tales that I remember making the best sellers and people flocking to the movie. It opened the floodgates of "realism" on film, and a distinct turn in the tone of movies. We tolerate realism, and so many seem to wait anxiously for the next gory story to appear in the theaters. Realistic isn't always good on film. I believe the talented Mr. Capote actually wrote this as a study of the murderers minds. Too convoluted for me!

If you include musical comedies and everything, about 70. He was also a major "behind the scenes" writer of "To Kill A Mockingbird".
