Hoffman is probably a better actor, but if they're reworking the Penguins role into a British gangster type villain, I'd much rather see Hoskins in the role. Has anyone here seen
The Long Good Friday or a few episodes of
Thick as Thieves? He would be ideal for the role.
It's obvious Hoskins could play the role. All
Capote shows is that Hoffman is excellent at being annoyingly effeminate. It needs an actor that fits the part, not an actor who is technically proficient.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
