I am totally uninterested in movies that cover gay subject matter. I'm not too interested in anything Hollywood puts out these days "Flight Plan" got me into a movie theater. One glance at Philip Seymour Hoffman and I can tell he did a great Capote. I'll see that one on DVD eventually. TC was an American original. He invented himself. Same reason I liked the movie "Pollock"
Indeed he was. And his influence on the culture was nothing short of revolutionary. He pretty much reinvented the true crime genre of nonfiction, and ushered in the age of tabloid journalism, which permeates all forms of media to this day. He also happened to be gay, and wasn't shy about it. So what to do. Not go see Capote, even though it's about a fascinating person, stars a great young actor, because the fascinating person happened to be gay? Do I stop watching Doris Day-Rock Hudson movies, because Rock Hudson died of AIDS?
Plus I am involved in the film industry, and I have to make it my business to see what's out there, regardless of my political and personal beliefs. And there is a great deal of crap out there, to be sure. But I need to see and judge for myself.
