Love this movie. Did see it last night for the umpteenth time.

Also saw On The Beach when it was first released. Yeah, I'm old! So what!

Interesting...and speaking of Capote, how about his In Cold Blood 1967 with Bobby Blake...read the book and saw the movie in the theater...both chilling, really spooked my wife...
