About This Item

Culver City, CA: Columbia Pictures, 1968. Vintage pressbook for the first release of the groundbreaking 1968 film, based on the nonfiction book by Truman Capote. Laid in are all 4 of the original pressbook inserts, drawing equal attention to the best selling book and its filmed realization.

Richard Brooks' unflinching and unsentimental documentary style made for a visualization that matched the power of Capote's most famous book, and remains one of the great meditations on violence in America.

11 x 17 inches. Unfolded. Fine.

Synopsis

In Cold Blood is a nonfiction book by American author Truman Capote. The book details the brutal 1959 murders of Herbert Clutter, a wealthy farmer from Holcomb, Kansas, and his wife and two of their children. When Capote learned of the quadruple murder before the killers were captured, he decided to travel to Kansas and write about the crime.
