7/10
Good but could be better...

The portrayal of Capote is entirely cliché. Hollander is excellent in the role, except it's a rerun of how Phillip Seymour Hoffman portrayed him in 2005. Treat Williams is excellent, truly shines as Bill Paley. There are some serious visual mistakes, as in the interior of La Cote Basque not looking exactly like it was. Also when Babe Paley gets out of a taxi cab in front of her apartment building and she is carrying shopping bags, the Louis Vuitton bags she is carrying are the contemporary bags they use at the stores now. The color of the Louis Vuitton bags were changed in 2003, to the Imperial Saffron color they use today. The shopping bags in the 60s and 70s when the story took place would have been a dark brown. The prop department should have known this. Naomi Watts is excellent as BP, Diane Lane is spot-on as Slim Keith, and Chloe Sevigny turns the flat persona of CZ Guest into a riveting character.
