Here's the description of an upcoming film called Infamous ...

"While researching his book In Cold Blood, writer Truman Capote (Toby Jones) develops a close relationship with convicted murderers d*ck Hickock and Perry Smith."

... this is actually going to come out, why would they do that?

Yep it's real and on the way:

Infamous (Previously: Have You Heard?; and Every Word Is True USA working title) is a forthcoming film from Warner Independent Pictures, due to be released in September 2006. Written and directed by Douglas McGrath, the film is based on the book Capote: In Which Various Friends, Enemies, Acquaintances and Detractors Recall His Turbulent Career by George Plimpton.

It will come just over a year after Capote, a film which covers much of the same ground.

i was just thinking that there's only two movies about In Cold Blood, so we could probably use more.

seriously though, In Cold Blood the movie is pretty sweet.
