On Jon Stewart: Phillip Seymour Hoffman as Truman Capote.
There's a movie coming out that I've read, is phenominal. It's how Capote researched "In Cold Blood". I'm psyched to see this, being a reader of thrillers/mysteries, etc.

2. Yeah, I just saw that interview..
I remember the whole thing when it was going down. Philip S Hoffman is a very good actor..Truman Capote lives again.

3. Capote labored over his prose and it shows. He didn't write much
but what he did write. The novella Handcarved coffins was pretty good.

5. I love Phillip Seymour Hoffman
I think he is really one of the best and most often overlooked actors. I can't wait to see this movie. Capote was pretty strange but I loved his strangeness and this should be really interesting.

6. If they ever do a movie on Plamegate
They have to Hire Seymour to play Rove.

Seymour is just phenomenal actor and the only one who can bring that sort of evil swarmy edge to Rove's character.
