A WHOLE BUNCH OF NAM WERE TOSSED AROUND TO PLAY THE LEADS, OM CANDICE BERGEN TO WARREN BEATTY. ALI MACGRAW, THEN WIFE OF ATTACHED DIRECTOR ROBERT EVANS, WAS ORIGALLY SLATED TO PLAY DAISY UNTIL SHE LEFT EVANS FOR STEVE MCQUEEN. CAPOTE’S EX, HOWEVER, ME FOR REASONS OF VISN. HE WROTE A WHOLE SCRIPT, SENT TO THE STUD, AND WAS PROMPTLY REJECTED. RATHER THAN HAVE HIM REWRE , THE NTROVERSIAL NOVELIST WAS REPLACED BY FRANCIS FORD COPPOLA (WHO SISTED THAT HIS OWN SCRIPT DIDN’T MAKE OUT ALIVE EHER).{BOX-SIZG:BORR-BOX;PADDG:24PX 0;} A{LOR:#F3F3F3;-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;} A:HOVER, A:FOC{-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:NONE;TEXT-RATN:NONE;} B, STRONG{FONT-WEIGHT:700;}SO WHAT WAS WRONG WH CAPOTE’S WORK?

HIS DRAFT ISN’T AVAILABLE TO READ, THOUGH SOMEONE BOUGHT A PY FOR $17,925 BACK 2007 AT A BONHAMS CTN. THE MOR (AND GIVEN THE NATURE OF THE THGS, A LIKELY REALY), IS THAT THE DRAFT WAS TOO GAY.

IT’S A PROBLEM THAT GO BEYOND THE BOUNDARI OF ANY ONE WORK OR INTY – THE MOST RECENT NTROVERSY WH THE IC BOOK WORLD IS THE STG OF A BLACK ACTOR TO PLAY THE HUMAN TORCH THE FANTASTIC FOUR REBOOT.
