Are you saying that Truman Capote lived his life as a stereotypical, easy to spot, sexless "character". That's ridiculous and a HUGE insult Capote as a person!
Capote was overt, which made him a hero of his time. And the "impersonation" as you call it, of Capote by Hoffman is (by definition) Hoffman's JOB AS AN ACTOR. If you think none of the power and complexity of Capote's character came through, then I would counter that you and I saw different movies.
Edited to add: "Good Night and Good Luck" should have won for best picture. IMNSHO, it had the best acting and was the overall best movie of last year. The screenplay was excellent.
