More Quotes from Philip Hoffman:
When I was playing him, ... I had to believe that it was worth it that he was doing what he was doing for the greater good. But maybe there were two crimes committed in this the murders and what Capote did.Philip Hoffman
There isn't, like, one formula, ... Everybody has their own way to go about it. Everybody is ultimately looking for that something that will spark their imagination, what will propel them forward with some passion to make the part work.
Philip Hoffman
It's ludicrous and I've been given enough. And I want to share this so badly with all the nominees. I can't tell you how fantastic these gentlemen are.
Philip Hoffman
The film puts Hoffman under a microscope. I was drawn to the part because it shows Capote before he became a fool, ... It's a difficult line to walk. He starts the journey not knowing what is going to happen. It's a classic tragedy that has to unfold. I don't think he's aware of it. Something gets sparked and sets his imagination flying. He goes where it takes him. He needs to finish. He knows he will be a huge success. In the fourth and fifth year, he starts to want the two men dead. I didn't crucify him in my mind.
Philip Hoffman
That's why the film works so well. You really have this sense that he's the one who committed the crime, and I think deep down inside, that's how he felt, too. That's something he could never come to terms with.
