FEUD: CAPOTE VS THE SWANS Key Art | ©2024 FX

Truman Capote was an author, screenwriter, playwright, and actor probably still most known for his nonfiction bestseller IN COLD BLOOD. The novel itself has been adapted for film, and several films were made about Capote’s writing of the book and the lingering effect it had on him. But Capote is also famous for, among other things, his unfinished novel ANSWERED PRAYERS. Capote had entered a charmed circle of New York society women, whom he collectively called “the Swans.” These women included Jacqueline Onassis’s sister Lee Radziwill and Babe Paley. Capote kept putting off finishing the work, but sold four chapters […]Read On »

Baker Dill (Matthew McConaughey) – an assumed name, natch – is scraping out a living as a charter fishing boat captain. Baker currently lives on Plymouth, a picturesque island, apparently somewhere off the Florida coast, where […]Read On »

Though Thomas Dekker makes a big impression as Lance Loud in HBO’s CINEMA VERITE movie based on the 1970s PBS documentary series AN AMERICAN FAMILY,  this certainly won’t be the first, and last time this charismatic young actor will be in the spotlight. Starting from the age of six, Dekker’s grew from parts in SEINFELD and TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL to cartoon voices for LAND BEFORE TIME and AMERICAN TAIL spin-offs, then turned in notable teen performances in BOSTON PUBLIC, CSI and HOUSE M.D. Dekker then gained a true cult following on the shows HEROES and TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR […]Read On »

In an age where no one bats an eye at watching a man with mascara on network family hour, or showing off their flamboyantly great fashion style for reality television, it’s hard to remember when homosexuals were barely shown (and swishily condescended to when they were) on America’s sets. Don’t even ask what you mostly got on the big screen. Leave it to Lance Loud to make his sexuality heard loud and clear for millions of Americans when PBS cameras became part of his clan’s lives for their groundbreaking series AN AMERICAN FAMILY. Beyond showing that “real” people were just […]Read On »
