J. Edgar

My husband and I saw J. Edgar over the weekend. We both enjoyed the movie. As did Roger Ebert.

There are scenes in the movie where J. Edgar Hoover (Leonard DiCaprio) shows affection towards Clyde Tolson (Armie Hammer). So many people in the theater were laughing. The two guys sitting next to me couldn't contain their laughter. I felt like we were watching the movie with fourth graders. They really couldn't stop laughing during the scene where Hoover put on one of his mother's dresses.

I thought DiCaprio had Hoover's mannerism's down so well. I sometimes forgot I was watching DiCaprio play J. Edgar Hoover. Clint Eastwood did a wonderful job with the movie. But I happen to love all of his movies that he directed. We sat in our seats during the credits, Eastwood actually did some of the music for the movie. He is so multi-talented.

Oh I can't wait to see this movie! I have a secret crush on Leo...maybe it's not so secret :-) I love all of his movies as well as Clint Eastwoods! Thanks for sharing your review!
