TV-MASynopsis
FEUD (2017), Season 2 — watch online on iFILM. This is a standalone chapter of Ryan Murphy's anthology, eight episodes on FX, subtitled "Capote vs. the Swans." New York high society, the late 1970s, nobody from Season 1 in sight.
At the center is writer Truman Capote and the wealthy, glittering women he doted on and called his "swans" — Babe Paley, Slim Keith, Lee Radziwill. He knew all their secrets. Then he sold them, publishing a thinly veiled excerpt of an unfinished book in Esquire. The season follows the wreckage: friendships severed overnight, doors that used to open for him bolted shut, a slow slide into booze and pills. The timeline jumps around — from his legendary 1966 Black and White Ball to the lawsuits and funerals that close the decade.
Tom Hollander plays Capote, with Naomi Watts, Diane Lane, Chloë Sevigny, Calista Flockhart and Demi Moore as the swans; Gus Van Sant directs most of it. It runs colder and sadder than the first season — not a duel between equals but one man dismantling himself. Stream FEUD Season 2 online on iFILM.
