"Truman Capote's Vicious Feud with the Swans: A Stellar Cast in Ryan Murphy's Anthology"

"Feud: Capote vs. The Swans" features exceptional performances but lacks momentum as it struggles to build drama from the inconsequential yet cataclysmic rivalry between Truman Capote and New York's upper crust women. The series' jumbled approach to time and limited understanding of characters make it a story without progression, despite interesting formal ideas and stand-alone episodes. While the performances, particularly by Naomi Watts, are commendable, the series falls short in engaging with the world it observes, leaving viewers with a lack of investment in the narrative.
