Very astute, clear, and precise, particularly about hallucination and about creativity.
He is 100% correct when discussing the LSD experience.
Wow...phillip Seymour hoffman REALLY played his character well in capote. I just had to come and see this video to see how spot-on his acting was .... and spot-on it was. Such a shame to have lost such a great actor.
same I just started watching the movie and I wanted to see how close he got and hes spot on
M.Lee Cthulhu
Same , just watched Capote . Phillip nailed it .
You should see Infamous, released a year later. PSM was great, but looks like a college drama actor in comparison to Toby Jones' portrayal
u b right
M.Lee Cthulhu You are so pretty. Your picture is a knock out. Have a great day.
Capote….light years ahead of his time…. 🙏💙
Amazing writer. I enjoy seeing clips of his interviews.
Love this interview. I love that his pants are the same color as the chair
How did this not get top comment
@@CrystalLia231 I suspect that the most popular comments in RUclips are generated by A”I” (that is, AS-“S” as in the opposite of “I”) or by some kind of robot. At least that’s how they sound, not just trivial, obvious, trite and formulaic, but also absurdly hyperbolic in praise, which is precisely how I imagine a robot would behave attempting to imitate a human-and failing miserably. Probably the thumbs-up clicks for the comments are generated by robots as well.
His voice sounds like helium. I read the book In Cold Blood, and that article in Life magazine in 1967 about the movie version of the book. Mr. Capote was paid approximately $100,000 for the movie rights. There is a photo of him along with Robert Blake and Scott Wilson, who played the two killers. He also wrote the story for a 1972 made for TV film titled The Glass House about prisons.
Did he always talk like this way? Strange fella 😮
@mermaidgirl9232 Yes. I remember watching the news at my house and I told my parents that he had kicked the bucket 🪣. The newscaster mentioned "helium voice." Before his passing, he planned a black & white ball for his 60th birthday.
Back then $100,000 was a lot of money , nowadays that's just a drop in a bucket. He was an exceptional writer. I love his talent.
Capote: "I personally have no particular affinity with drugs..."
😕 sigh 💔
How is that a bad thing?
It’s nice to hear a person speak the truth in a so called free country where the government doesn’t tell us the truth and has waged an idiotic war on drugs, which is actually a war on the poor.
@@sullivandmitry1416the fact that it was a complete lie is the bad thing. The man was either the world's greatest liar, or else he could not distinguish between truth and reality. You cannot mistake anything he says as truth.
Capote had major issues with cocaine and alcohol. He should've stuck with the weed.
Great writer. Just read “In Cold Blood.” This man is a literally giant.
I can only imagine how that small town felt seeing Truman. He stated there for months while writing the book.
It's so sad he DESTROYED his God given gift
Literary
but he betrayed and hoodwinked, plus exploited the two prisoners in this book...sickening!
Great talent. It's so sad that such great artist destroy themselves with alcohol and drugs. Heartbreaking.
Truman capote does a nice impression of Phillip Seymour Hoffman...
Truman Capote passed away at Johnny Carson's ex -wife's apartment. Don't remember if it was his first wife or his second wife Joanne Joanna. Anyway, he passed away at her apartment in New York. I thought that was sweet of her to let him stay there. I don't know if he died of alcoholism or what, but he was a very smart man. Had kind of trouble. Childhood is parents weren't around. I love his story of Christmas memory. It's historian being one of his cousins played by Geraldine Page when he was a young boy and Alabama. I guess we all have our quirks. I personally liked him and I don't know how old he was when he passed away but he was a great writer.
Reading The Swans of Fifth Avenue right now. Had to stop to check out some interviews as mentioned in book.
He went completely haywire after the book brought such fame. He also ruined some friendships along the way.
It was Joanne, and her house where he died was in California.
Long a heavy drinker and cigarette smoker, by the early 1970s Capote was abusing cocaine, alcohol, tranquilizers, marijuana and other substances. He died in the Bel Air home of Joanne Carson (a close friend and the ex-wife of NBC's Tonight Show host, Johnny Carson). The death certificate declared the cause as "liver disease complicated by phlebitis and multiple drug intoxication." His last words were, "Mama. It's Buddy. I'm cold." Buddy was his childhood nickname. Gore Vidal called Capote's death "a wise career move."
@@terr777 Yes, I THOUGHT it was “died”. People rarely just float away or vanish into thin air, leaving not a rack behind-even if we are such stuff as dreams are made on.
Capote died at 60 if my math is right. Born 1924, died 1984
Damn, catch that Warhol shade at 3:40
Yes, lol😂
Earned it !
would love to read what he wrote when he was doing the LSD experiment
Interesting, in hindsight, Mr. Capote's take on drug use/abuse and alcohol.
died from alcoholism
If you'll notice, Truman Capote spoke at a quick, conversational clip in this interview, and he was seemingly at his best here. However, in interviews he did by the mid-to-late-'70s, he was frequently drunk, slurred in a slow drawl, and his thoughts meandered.
But considering that addiction helped to shorten his life, Capote's testimony on drug use should likely be dismissed.
He was an iconic genius.
He gives good advice.
Here after the Bowen Yang SNL sketch and I can’t believe how accurate it was
Good for Truman Capote, praising pop music, it's fun, it's amusing, it's different. "I don't see any harm in smoking marijuana" >>>> I had no idea he was so forward looking, in addition to being a genius of a writer.
He is spot on when speaking about lsd. Take it from someone who had a bad trip and ended up entering 7 random houses. Eye opening experience.
Christian Boriboun lol howd u not get arrested mate
I was detained with 5 officers, but nver arrested. It was gift of being a minor.
I had over 50 trips and no bad experiences.
James K ::Trip #51...According to Garp: "I'M FLYING"
😂 he owns Random House publications
This guy does an excellent Philip Seymour Hoffman impersonation!
He actually does have some of the mannerisms out of Marlon Brando. A W
and they both enjoyed the company of men
He has a mannerisms of a tiresome old Queen.
My word Capote reminds me of my late but great friend who was a "starving" artist and although he was a very fun and outrageous companion he didn't come cheap the first time we met for tea I ended up £200. Out of pocket. Plus he was so annoying that eventually people would give him money to go away.
I think Truman spoke very accurately about drugs and alcohol I would love to see the film Capote. No wonder all his swans were so fond of him I bet he was as much of a gossip as my late friend was.😅
Fun and annoying: Odd combination. What kind of “tea” was this, by the way?
A very odd and sick man, and those who were so fond of him, even more so.
He was a very intelligent man and he was spot on about tripping.
Hes wearing the same colour pants as the chair lol
Some people are on the net to keep us informed of the big stuff .,or they are you . (gotcha)
Someone told me I will pay a heavy emotional price 4 my intelligence..looks like he was right...
TRUMAN DID.
@@jackypatterson4139 Yes, a very heavy price spelling “for” as “4” and using “like” as if it were an adverb, not an adjective.
Certain drugs can give you ideas, but the trick is trying to put it down on paper. You can't really do that on LSD or mushrooms, especially with mushrooms. I could barely operate my VHS player to play movies the last time I did shrooms. I just kept looking at the tape for long periods of time, trying to get it together. I remember I finally figured it out and watched Maximum Overdrive by Stephen King.
Remember Truman was also an expert serial teller of tall tails.
😬
I'm not sure the man ever put two honest words together. He was no fool however, he just enjoyed making fools of others who believed him.
sounds like the LSD definitely did some brain damage….
Something did some rather serious personality damage as well.
So we know what got him in the end, the booze. So sad. Absolute genius.
mixed with a myriad of drugs.
And the benzodiazepines
And the benzodiazepines
interesting ... but why does he say marijuana is harmless & then go on to say all drugs are bad
Very sad that he commented that drink was the doom of the creative mind. This is EXACTLY what happened to him. He became a raging alcoholic, which completely killed his gifts, talents and creativity, AND killed him at the young age of 59
100% GENIUS .I am . He is okay ,too , I 'spose . If you put me on the spot , I would say such things .
What's with the weird butterfly at the end?
Monarch programming
What a strange man.
A very strange and tiresome little man. How anyone found him interesting at all is totally beyond my comprehension.
Who is the interviewer? He looks a bit like the lawyer F. Lee Bailey!
It IS Bailey.
f. lee bailey : defender of oj simpson.......despicable.
Oh Jesus.. OJ Simpson's lawyer 🤨
Phillip Seymour Hoffman was the best playing Truman Capote
Weeeel all the impersonations of him started with “well”
Would be great if they found the report Tru wrote for his psychiatrist friend about his LS D trip. He's also hugely correct about the myth of drugs enhancing creativity. Making great art takes concentration of mind and talent, takes discipline, and drugs impair that. We all know Truman did succumb to drink and drugs- and basically gave up writing. It's like he's outlining the pitfalls he knew and by 10 years later..he fell into the pit. Will always be fond of him though.
😂❤ He looks just like an Oompa Loompa!
I think he got it half right. The doctor who dosed him was actually correct about inducing schizophrenia, specifically in young people aged 18-25. The same can be said about taking copious amounts of cannabis. The comparison of knowing you’re in a dream is great. But where I think he’s off is by being creative in the use of drugs. I’m not saying he’s wrong because you certainly don’t need them to be a creative mind but it’s obvious that throughout history some of the best works were in fact produced by people under the influence.
Cannabis cannot produce an effect of schizophrenia or schizoaffective.
Have u ever even smoked? Lol do you read any SCHOLARLY JOURNALS?
Lsd, yes...large amounts of cannabis, NO.
DONT COME BACK FOR ME, IM AN RN. js
@@mleecthulhu I think what Chris Gomes is trying to say and what most of the scientific community agrees on is that extended use of cannabis in persons with a PREDISPOSITION to schizophrenia can exacerbate the PREDISPOSITION. I've seen this before, and although it is not as extreme as somebody in the throes of a 'bad' LSD trip, which in fact does cause the person under the influence to exhibit symptoms of schizophrenia/schizo-affective disorder, cannabis will in fact exacerbate a predisposition, as I stated above. Not immediately, as many in the science community believed LSD to evoke, rightly or wrongly, as many times LSD would exacerbate the predisposition slowly over time or even CREATE a predisposition slowly over time. So, as an 'RN' you should know this, but I assume you are a regular smoker yourself and spend a lot of time reading 'scholarly' articles that affirm your own bias and narrative, possibly because of guilt over a psychological dependence on cannabis, and guilt coupled by the fact that you are a heavy user AND a 'RN'. It's never too late to stop. It'll only be a few restless nights and before you know it, you'll be typing legible replies again.
Jack Bolt ::...but does it cause cognitive aggression.....
@@Jack__Bolt Well since I didn't know the whole fucking story and whoever typed the reply didn't word it the right way for me to understand doesn't give you the right to attack my fucking My nursing registration... Maybe if people use their words and elaborate I would understand what he was saying So please take it down a notch.
@Jack go read some SCHOLARLY JORNALS MEANING APA CITATION MEDICAL JOURNALS FROM THE NIMH... not a fkn buzzfeed article, you idiot. I know my shit sweetheart don't even try and come for me
Use your fucking words next time..
Interestingly, he foreshadows his own demise when he talks about drinking as a stimulant for a writer. Very sad.
So sad that drink killer Truman Capote in 1984, if he had stayed smoking hash & weed, I'm sure he would still be with us. Although his non-fiction book (In Cold Blood) definitely changed the style of writing, & hundreds of writers have to thank Capote, it was a damn shame he never wrote another book after that! I truly believe, although he changed writing in an amazing way, the cost eventually killed him in a brutal, painful way!😪😪😭😔😔
RIP TRUMAN CAPOTE🙏🙏🙏😇😇😇😇
@Charles Pukeowski fair point! My real issues were was that he of lasted longer & worked creatively if he packed the drinking in🤷♀️
Warhol reported Capote smoking weed until the end.
@Charles Pukeowski he could be he'd be betty whites age.
He killed himself. OD on pills but intentional.
Read music for chameleons! It feels like a full book even tho it’s short stories and interviews
that is one strange person
Extremely so.
Jimi Hendrix?
Is that F. Lee bailey?
Yes!
yes
The Flea himself.
He was so cool.
Cool or incoucient?
Hardly. Insufferably tiresome is more like it.
Why did they fuss over this guy so ? He’s seems like an ass.
He was one more DAMAGED NARCISST
Actually that's why I'm here. I cannot understand the endless fascination with the man. I have known a few people like him in real life and I cannot get far away from them fast enough.
He’s a brilliant writer
He was an ass. I've known a few people like him and I can't stay far enough away from them. Brilliant or not, who cares, a snake is a snake, avoid at all costs.
