I loved Catherine Keener's portrayal of Nell Harper Lee and how the release of the book was interwoven into the story of Capote's researching and writing of <i>In Cold Blood</i>.

I think they're taking a book written by a woman whose father was devastated by a similar trial and rewriting their Cliff Notes to match how they believed the world should be in Harper Lee's world.
