boring

1. Drowsy, there is no climax, but Hoover's deeds are piled up. It is too boring to use the narrative of the old Hoover. The film is dark, and it is really boring in terms of film techniques

2. Understand the history anyway, the founder of fbi, the head of American spy, has mastered the black information of the presidential dignitaries, so he has been in power for 48 years, and the presidents of the 8 circles have not dared to take him down, and the later director of fbi can only serve no more than 10 years, a comrade

3. Two American intelligence organizations, fbi domestic, cia international, and Hoover came to the stage. After 1910 to about 1970, the United States began to establish diplomatic relations and ideological confrontation. Smashers, later the Mafia, and the assassination of Kennedy in the 1960s, is similar to Forrest Gump's post-Cold War history, but it is much worse than the Forrest Gump movie.

    Old age makeup is the biggest flaw. The climax of the stirring base came too late, and it was too abrupt. After sleeping and watching it again, it didn't affect it at all...

    Can Dongmu still be able to eat when he is old! ? Enough of the film interspersed with narrative, there is still that tone at the beginning of the chaos, it's not a ghost film that won't make it so dark! ! ! And when did Xiao Lizi's play path become so narrow? It's all repeating. . . The characters are also so thin and that kiss. . . No way, I don't know if I want to complain or complain or complain!

J. Edgar quotes

  • [J. Edgar Hoover and Clyde Tolson discuss over dinner about the first time they ever met]

    Clyde Tolson: Edgar... you can lie to everyone else, the whole world, for you own sake... and for the sake of the bureau, but you cannot lie to me.

    J. Edgar Hoover: I should've never given you your job, Clyde. You know that? You weren't even qualified. You remember the day you came in for your interview.

    Clyde Tolson: I do.

    J. Edgar Hoover: You walked into my office and you fixed my window, you picked up my handkerchief. You handed it to me. You remember why I was sweating, Clyde?

    Clyde Tolson: It's because you were exercising.

    J. Edgar Hoover: No, I was... I was sweating because I... I knew at that very moment...

    [Clyde hands Hoover his handkerchief from the dinner table]

    J. Edgar Hoover: ... I knew at that very moment that I... I needed you. And I've never needed anyone else in my entire life. Not like that. So I began to perspire.

    Clyde Tolson: I know.

    Clyde Tolson: [Edgar grabs for his stomach and gasps] Edgar, are you all right?

    J. Edgar Hoover: Yes, yes it's - it's just indigestion, Clyde. Let's go to dinner tomorrow night, shall we? Our old corner booth.

    Clyde Tolson: Perhaps if I feel better.

    J. Edgar Hoover: Yes. And you must - you must. We have a great many things to discuss. And now I can't trust anyone else at the bureau right now. I can only depend on you.

    Clyde Tolson: [Edgar walks up to Clyde and holds onto his hand, kissing is forehead] Thank you, Edgar.

    J. Edgar Hoover: [Edgar leaves the handkerchief in Clyde's hand] Good night, Clyde.

    Clyde Tolson: Good night, Edgar.

    [Edgar walks off and Clyde holds Edgar's handkerchief to his cheek]

  • [J. Edgar Hoover arrives home to go to bed]

    J. Edgar Hoover: [narrating] The very essence of our democracy is rooted in a belief in the worth of the individual. That life has meaning that transcends any man-made system, that love is the greatest force on earth... far more enduring than hatred or the unnatural divisions of mankind.
