"Unraveling the Truth: Fact vs. Fiction in Feud's Black and White Ball"

TL;DR Summary
The television series "Feud: Capote vs. the Swans" portrays Truman Capote's manipulative relationships with high society women, but takes liberties with historical accuracy. While the show depicts events such as Capote being turned away at a party and a scandal involving Babe Paley's sheets, it also fabricates scenarios like Capote meeting a boyfriend in a bathhouse and turning away Ann Woodward at the Black and White Ball. The series exaggerates and invents details for dramatic effect, straying from the actual historical events.
