Warner Home VideoAlthough Capote beatInfamous to the punch, entering theaters beforeInfamous and garnering allthe awards recognition,Infamous is actually the better film of the two - in my opinion. Bothmovies follow author Truman Capote as he researches the Clutter family murder for his bookIn

7. 'While You Were Sleeping'

Buena Vista Home EntertainmentI absolutely love this film. It's a feel-good movie with enough lighthearted comedy to keep itfrom being maudlin.

fiancee. While he's in a coma, she finds true love in the form of his brother.

Who Shot Patakango? is a coming-of-age tale set in Brooklyn during the late '50s. Though thefilm briefly suggests racial tensions at the interracial vocational high school where the movie isset, it prefers to pursue a purely nostalgic story line instead. Over the course of the film, thefilmmakers run through a number of good-natured, humorous anecdotes about growing upduring the late '50s.
