Event Details

In Cold Blood (1967); directed by Richard Brooks – 134 mins. Starring Robert Blake, Scott Wilson, John Forsythe.

In November 1959, in the small town of Holcomb, Kansas, four members of the Clutter family were savagely murdered. There was no apparent motive for the crime, and there were almost no clues. This Academy Award-nominated adaptation of Truman Capote’s fact-based crime novel reconstructs the murder and the investigation that led to the capture, trial, and execution of the killers.

Registration is suggested. Register online or call (914) 813-3706.

In this series, New Rochelle librarian and film historian Chris Poggiali will introduce and discuss feature films that examine true crime and detail the actions of people associated with and affected by criminal events.
