On that idea of the "haze of pain": "What causes pain is knowing, subconsciously or consciously, is that the relationship has ended, and with it with it the burden of loss. The person who was once a source of growth -- emotionally, psychologically, etc,. -- no longer has anything to offer. And the end of a relationship stands as a milestone in one's life, a persistent reminder that time is passing and all go to one place." -- Ian Fleming, writer.

@MsWonderlicious 3 года назад

I think Jean Moreau in using almost monosyllabic answers or answers that didn’t really give much away, plus fixing him with a rather stony stare whilst capote was talking, was using a psychological technique to literally stonewall him. Perhaps she was acting in self-defence and felt her lifestyle choices were being criticised. If so, that’s a shame as it could have lead to an interesting and in-depth exchange. I don’t actually think Capote was attacking her, he was merely seeking to comprehend a way of being that was perhaps very different to his own fragilities, sensibilities and attachment style.

@josephbohme7917 Год назад

Truman is talkng about himself. His life is guided by his emotions, as are most of us. If we have compassion we do not let our emotions go to excess for fears of instability. To share emotion is a freedom that many cannot express. Talent allows more exposure and seeming joy. Truman had a dual life meaning he was obvious but guarded by not saying details of his personal life and the encounters or the roles in them, Jen Moreau did have an exposed leg, whereas Lee Marvin seems very disinterested and pressed. We all do want some attention and use tools. Dick Cavett is not skilled and honed at being a manipulator. He is no psychoanbalyst or reader of people. But I do enjoy his often awkward simplicity.

@@lepetitchat123 To be honest, I think she felt sighted by his question in the sense that it made her appear 'promiscuous' by societal standards and therefore she chose not to answer it properly, more so than she couldn't. And the way he asked "but it doesn't cause you any pain?" - that sounded wrong and almost as if he was trying to make her come across as a cold hearted vamp. I think you can understand how she's giving him barely any feedback, as a cue for him to drop it, and he then falls into this loop of sorts. It was somewhat unkind on her behalf, but to be fair, the question Capote asked about her multiple relationships and her approach to them felt overly personal and intrusive. As far as talk shows in general are concerned, I have never seen things like that on TV in many years. That period in the 60's and 70's was truly something. Nobody would even mention In Search of Lost Time in any late night show nowadays.

Like Capote, it's not really the physical aspect of relationship that bothers me, it's rather the emotional component... if you truly have "genuine" feelings for people, how can you easily discard them like that... that's what bothers people like me and Capote.

Wow, Truman was really opening up about something deep in his being, back before everyone did that through media. His childhood abandonment probably gave him a hypersensitivity to rejection, something I also experience. In those days it was a discussion about feelings, not labels and self diagnosing. That was before big pharma advertising taught everyone to categorize themselves. And the other guests and Cavett didn’t react. It just wasn’t a vogue topic yet. Also, Jeanne Moreau felt he was getting into her personal life, and back then it was still the time when a woman who had many short relationships was scorned as promiscuous. I don't see his question as prying. I think he weas really wanting some insights to help him, but this of course was on network TV.

This was a situation where Capote questioned the guest's called process of parting from a relationship. He is mostly curious as to how this lady does not experience pain or trauma after a parting. She is uncomfortable and he sees that so he does beat around the bush (even compliments her). Ultimately, he doesn't agree with her philosophy on "just leaving" and she knows he is right. He knows that she also has a lot of "baggage" and is probably why she "just leaves." I just feel like he reminded her and the audience that leaving is never that simple. He is also speaking from pain and experience it sounds like.

@marymagdalene3004 Год назад

Moreau did not respond to Capote's question that was filled with so much emotion. She, in contrast, had no emotion. Kind of wished that Cavett had intervened to some extent, to wit: I think Truman was hoping for more insight into your state of mind when leaving someone with whom you shared a loving relationship. Something like that. Was very uncomfortable to witness this. But, then again, Moreau is French and they have a way of acting than most others do. They are a very enigmatic, self-possessed people!

Or, he was being manipulative & she didn't take the bait. Not everyone wears their emotions on their sleeves.

Imagine Lee Marvin and Truman Capote stuck in an elevator together. I don't know if it would be a psychedelic horror movie or a comedy or both.

@ Gretagarbeige ― Indeed, "In Search of Lost Time" / "À la recherche du temps perdu", often referred to in France as ' _la_ Recherche', is the plausible answer. Initially written in seven volumes, it is Marcel Proust's best known work internationally and considered by some to be the finest novel of the twentieth century, if not of all time.

@johnnyhogan5880 3 года назад

Capote brought up a very good point in life here: Women move on far better than men do. You see it all the time, they will hop from relationship to relationship to man to man and adopt a sense of "empowered victimhood." Don't get me wrong, men are the same way, hopping from woman to woman to relationship to relationship. But women who are with men like that often know what they are getting into. Investing emotionally with someone and in someone for that matter is a very serious process and isn't to be taken lightly at all, as it often is unfortunately. Charles Bukowski said it best when he said "Relationships are funny things. One moment you're going out to eat and going places and spending time together, and the next moment it all stops." There often is no greater pain than that in this world and I'm glad that Capote shed some light on it here.

@firenze5555 3 года назад

I couldn't disagree more with you. Women are much less needy then men when it comes to relationships and relish their independence when their spouse/partner dies or divorces/splits. The type of woman that you describe is a small minority. Men, on the other hand, are constantly looking for a caretaker and ego-stroker and much more apt to hop from relationship to relationship. I do like that Capote brought up an unusual subject for the time and it's too bad that Groucho had to play the ham and take up most of the conversation.

Truman Streckfus Persons (Nueva Orleans, 30 de septiembre de 1924-Los Ángeles, 25 de agosto de 1984), más conocido como Truman Capote, fue un novelista, guionista, dramaturgo y actor ocasional estadounidense, ampliamente considerado uno de los mejores de su pais. Varios de sus cuentos, novelas y obras de teatro son vistos como clásicos literarios, incluidas las novelas Breakfast at Tiffany's (Desayuno en Tiffany's) (1958) y In Cold Blood (A sangre fría) (1966), a la que calificó de "novela de no ficción". Sus obras han sido adaptadas a más de 20 películas y series de televisión.
