Robert Blake, John Forsythe, and Scott Wilson in In Cold Blood (1967, dir. Richard Brooks) “Although none of the journalists anticipated violence, several had predicted shouted abuse. But when the crowd caught sight of the murderers, with their escort of blue-coated highway patrolmen, it fell silent, as though amazed to find them humanly shaped.” -Truman Capote, In Cold Blood (1966)  Photographer: Phil Stern
