Description: In Cold Blood is a 1967 American neo-noir crime film written, produced and directed by Richard Brooks, based on Truman Capote's 1966 nonfiction novel of the same name. It stars Robert Blake as Perry Smith and Scott Wilson as Richard "Dick" Hickock, two men who murder a family of four in Holcomb, Kansas. Although the film is in parts faithful to the book, Brooks made some slight alterations, including the inclusion of a fictional character, "The Reporter" (played by Paul Stewart). The film was shot on location at sites where Smith and Hickock's crimes occurred, including the real Clutter home where they robbed and murdered all four members of the family. The film was nominated for four Academy Awards: Best Director, Best Original Score, Best Cinematography, and Best Adapted Screenplay. In 2008, In Cold Blood was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". REAR COVER Inspired by the true story of killers Perry Smith and Dick Hickock, IN COLD BLOOD dramatises their senseless slaughter of the Clutter family, their escape, life on the run and their eventual capture and execution. With incredible performances from his lead actors (ROBERT BLAKE and SCOTT WILSON are riveting as the killers), a throbbing jazz score by QUINCY JONES and stunning black and white photography used for gritty, documentary-style realism, director RICHARD BROOKS created a classic of the period and the benchmark for a genre that has yet to be equaled.
