Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Biopic directed by Clint Eastwood and starring mainly Leonardo DiCaprio but with a bunch of other big names in supporting roles, it is an in-universe fictionalized biography of the first and most infamous director of the FBI, John Edgar Hoover. Told in a memoir-style narration, the narrative hops backwards and forwards in time from Hoover's time as a minor lawyer in the Department of Justice to the end of his life. It addresses such topics as the growth of power and influence of the FBI, the use and abuse of power, and the assorted scandals and rumors surrounding Hoover's life. The film was released in 2011, where it initially received lukewarm critical reviews. |
