Capote Vs The Swans: A Bitter Rivalry

Some swans cannot handle the burden of their elaborate and unnecessary feathers. Truman Capote, who was part of and wrote about the elite community of New York City in the 1960s, knew all too well the joys and dangers of this over-the-top way of life. However, when he exposed the secrets of this glamorous but shady group in a book, Capote faced the downfall of his own world as his writing aspirations clashed with his personal connections. Ryan Murphy's new series features Tom Hollander as Capote, and includes Chloë Sevigny, Naomi Watts, Calista Flockhart, and Jessica Lange as the vulnerable "swans". The show presents an introspective and surreal portrait of an imperfect and delicate man who could only mask his flaws with his charm. The series will be available on Apple TV+ starting from Wednesday, 17 April.

One day, Evie shocks Nina by revealing her engagement to a man named Ranesh, who refers to Nina as "Neens" and talks about Evie's self-actualization.
