Based on Truman Capote’s ‘non-fiction novel’, Richard Brooks film was an overly long examination of events that led up to the murder of a quiet farming family in America’s Midwest during the 1950s. Following the trail of the two killers as they wind their way towards, and away from, the murder scene, the film was exceptional in its depiction of the two men with their juvenile dreams and disturbing backgrounds. Quincy Jones’ grimy jazz score is experimental and effective. While much of his later work tended towards the commercial, ‘In Cold Blood’ is not easy listening but remains one of his most intriguing pieces of work. Out of print and highly collectable, the original LP has yet to be released on CD but can be obtained through eBay or other specialist outlets.
