1. I watched this movie because of Armie Hammer

2. Every time I see Xiao Lizi, it always reminds me of my cousin, I feel like they look a bit alike

3. In this movie, how come Armie Hammer is so good-looking, I like him more and more.

4. Only after watching this movie did I understand what "accompanying is the longest confession of love"

5. I checked the information and found that Hoover was never married, which created a topic for his sexual orientation research

6. But when Hoover interviewed Clyde, why did he let Clyde come? In fact, the two like each other. This is the reason, even though the performance of the movie is very incomprehensible.

7. The structure echoes from beginning to end, Clyde bit and kissed Hoover, and finally Hoover kissed Clyde on the forehead, just to express his feelings, right?

8. After watching this movie, I feel that the performance of Hoover is very three-dimensional and real. Hoover, because of his mother's strength, was very flustered when faced with a woman's show of love. Maybe he was afraid of being beaten because of his first love proposal? Because of being rejected by women, he likes good-looking men, mainly because he is more patriotic and wants to stand out. Want to do business.

9. Hoover in the later part of the movie is particularly mean. He uses the privacy of politicians to blackmail others, which is very true, although I don't like his sleazy behavior.

10. Hoover in his later years showed me an image of stubbornness, old-fashioned, swept up by the torrent of the times, and did not want to let go and was obsessed with power.

    The historical characters who appear one by one make the movie quite contemporary, but under the series of flashbacks, it becomes boring and the story has no sense of hierarchy. The half-century legend of the director has become a 50-year performance report. The director's intentions are unclear, and many places are extremely abrupt. In the end, the film only tells us that the two men's running-in at work can cultivate a basic love.

    It is equivalent to asking Zhao Benshan to play Churchill

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.
