During his lifetime, J. Edgar Hoover would rise to be the most powerful man in America. As head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation for nearly 50 years, he would stop at nothing to protect his country. Through eight presidents and three wars, Hoover waged battle against threats both real and perceived, often bending the rules to keep his countrymen safe. His methods were at once ruthless and heroic, with the admiration of the world his most coveted, if ever elusive, prize. Hoover was a man who placed great value on secrets-particularly those of others-and was not afraid to use that information to exert authority over the leading figures in the nation. Understanding that knowledge is power and fear poses opportunity, he used both to gain unprecedented influence and to build a reputation that was both formidable and untouchable.

J. Edgar Film Synopsis

As the face of law enforcement in the United States for almost 50 years, J. Edgar Hoover was feared and admired, reviled and revered. But behind closed doors, he held secrets that would have destroyed his image, his career, and his life.

HooverNot a very good movie..Score: 1/5

Just didn't hold my interestI did not enjoy this movie at all and just couldn't get into it..Score: 1/5

Emotions deep, a sobering reality.Great performances by DiCaprio and partner, reaching into the heart of soulful emotions that run deep within those who harbor secrets that would destroy magnificent men. This example of American tragedy and success is felt by all who have experienced elements of this scrutiny. Overall, an excellent film..Score: 5/5

J. EdgarI was somewhat disappointed in this film. I realize that Hoover was a complex, haunted man and to touch on all of his difficulties would have been impossible. However, I feel the storyline barely scratched the surface. I also think that Leonardo DiCaprio was miscast as Hoover. A very talented actor, his performance in this film did not indicate that. The three stars are for Naomi Watts', Armie Hammer's, and Judy Dench's performances..Score: 3/5

J. EdgarI so wanted to like this movie. Clint, Leo, important and interesting historical figure...instead I feel like its just hours of my life I'm never going to get back. And much to my surprise for the first time ever felt like $3.99 was wasted..Score: 1/5

Great movieGreat plot Great actors And over all worth ur time.Score: 5/5

Who forgot to put the lights on the truck?I am usually the first in line for a Clint Eastwood movie, but this one missed the mark by a wide margin; How does one make a boring movie about J. Edgar Hoover??? And what happened to the movie set lights? This whole film was shot in the dark!! It got irritating!! I turned it off and went to watch paint dry..Score: 1/5

J. Edgar SnoozerWorst biopic I've seen since Amelia. Was Hoover really as dull as this makes him seem? We never get past the surface -- in fact, given that many scenes are so dimly lit as to be practically indiscernible, and many feature actors wearing some of the most laughably bad old-person make-up I've seen in a big-budget movie in decades, even the surface is obscure. Eastwood directs this with a stolid lack of imagination that keeps it all at arm's length. A dull snoozer, and surprisingly inept. If you want to know about Hoover, there are books and documentaries out there that give you a much better idea of who he was and what drove him..Score: 2/5

Rotton? Nah… Poison!I'm a bit naive. I attend movies to be uplifted, inspired, awed, invigorated and / or thrilled. If I had to guess, the aim of the director with this movie was to depress, bore and leave the viewer certainly but vaguely unhappy. That's not completely true. Conspiracy Theorists might like parts of it. Bet they consulted Jesse Ventura? Kinda like listening to a musical artist who cares nothing for the pleasure of his audience and cares much for his own right to express himself..Score: 1/5

J edgarI viewed it as a documentary and that made it OK. I checked for facts after viewing it and it appeared to be a fairly accurate portrayal of J Edgar. The make up for Hoover and Tolson were awful. I told my wife that Tolson looked like Frankenstein on the Munsters. Would only recommend it to someone who was interested in the subject..Score: 3/5

Français
Le film explore la vie publique et privée de l’une des figures les plus puissantes, les plus controversées et les plus énigmatiques du 20e siècle, J. Edgar Hoover. Incarnation du maintien de la loi en Amérique pendant près de cinquante ans, J. Edgar Hoover était à la fois craint et admiré, honni et révéré. Mais, derrière les portes fermées, il cachait des secrets qui auraient pu ruiner son image, sa carrière et sa vie.

svenska
Som överhuvud för brottsbekämpningen i USA under nästan 50 år var FBI-chefen J Edgar Hoover fruktad och beundrad, hånad och hyllad. Men bakom stängda dörrar hade han hemligheter som skulle ha förstört hans image, hans karriär och hela hans liv.

Türkçe
Amerika bugün FBI ile gurur duyuyorsa bunda hiç şüphesiz ki J. Edgar Hoover'ın on yıllarca kendisini mesleğine ve büroya adamış olmasının etkisi var. 20.yy.'ın en tartışmalı, en esrarengiz ve en güçlü portrelerinden biri olan J. Edgar'ın gerçek hayat hikayesinden uyarlanan filmde ünlü FBI başkanının gençliğinden başlayarak Amerikan Adalet Bakanlığı'ndaki yükselişine ve neredeyse 50 yıl boyunca Federal Büro üzerindeki etkisine beyazperdeye taşınıyor.

Deutsch
J. Edgar Hoover ist ein schwieriger Charakter, der in seiner 50 Jahre währenden Karriere einerseits als Musterbild für Gesetzessinn und Moralität gilt, anderseits kontrollsüchtig, egozentrisch, erpresserisch und rassistisch ist. Er revolutioniert die kriminalistische Spurensicherung, sammelt zugleich ein geheimes Aktenarsenal an, mit dem er die mächtigsten Politiker erpresste. Sein Assistenzdirektor Clyde Tolson ist ihm tief ergeben, doch Hoover unterdrückt seine homosexuellen Neigungen.

Dansk
I de 48 år, han var chef for det amerikanske forbundspoliti, FBI, var J. Edgar Hoover kendt og frygtet for at indsamle store mængder af kompromitterende informationer om Amerikas mest magtfulde mænd. Men som privatperson var den nidkære bureaukrat et stort mysterium. Kun hans mandlige assistent, Tolson, nåede tæt ind på livet af Hoover, om hvem rygtet lød, at han var transvestit og skabsbøsse

Norsk
J. Edgar Hoover styrte FBI i nesten 50 år. Hoovers var både hensynsløse og heltemodige. Han var fryktet og beundret, foraktet og æret. Men bak lukkede dører, hadde han hemmeligheter som kunne ha ødelagt hans image, karriere og liv.

Pусский
В течение всей жизни Джон Эдгар Гувер поднимался к вершинам власти, чтобы стать самым могущественным человеком в Америке. Будучи главой Федерального бюро расследований, он ни перед чем не останавливался, чтобы защитить свою страну. Пережив восемь президентов и три войны, Гувер вел сражения с угрозами как реальными, так и надуманными, зачастую нарушая правила, чтобы уберечь сограждан от опасности. Он был безжалостен и был героем, причем одновременно; мир восхищался им, что было для него самой желанной, пусть и не материальной, наградой. «Дж. Эдгар» глазами самого Гувера показывает нам его частную и общественную жизнь и отношения с окружающими человека, который мог с тем же успехом исказить правду, с каким он защищал ее в течение всей своей жизни, посвященной воплощению его собственной идеи

Nederlands
De film vertelt het verhaal van de voormalige directeur van de FBI, J. Edgar Hoover. De focus wordt gelegd op de schandalen in zijn carrière en zijn controversiële privéleven. Helen Gandy, de vrouw die 54 jaar lang zijn secretaresse was, had een aanzienlijke invloed op de directeur en was, naar het schijnt, op de hoogte van zijn geheimen. En geheimen had hij zeker. Zo had Hoover onder andere jarenlang een geheime relatie met zijn mannelijke assistent Clyde Tolson.

Português
O drama que explora a vida pública e privada de uma das figuras mais poderosas, controversas e enigmáticas do século 20. Principal nome da lei nos Estados Unidos por quase cinquenta anos, J. Edgar Hoover era temido e admirado, odiado e reverenciado. Mas, na intimidade, ele mantinha segredos que teriam destruído a sua imagem, a sua carreira e a sua vida.

Italiano
Nominato capo dell'FBI dal Presidente Calvin Coolidge, J. Edgar Hoover è un giovane uomo ambizioso nell'America proibizionista. Figlio di un padre debole e di una madre autoritaria, Edgar è ossessionato dalla sicurezza del Paese e dai criminali che la minacciano a suon di bombe e volantini. Avviata una lotta senza esclusione di colpi contro bolscevichi, radicali, gangster e delinquenti di ogni risma, il direttore federale attraversa la storia americana costruendosi una reputazione irreprensibile e inattaccabile. A farne le spese sono i suoi nemici, reali o supposti, tutti ugualmente ricattabili dai dossier confidenziali raccolti, archiviati e custoditi da Helen Gandy, fedele segretaria che rifiutò il suo corteggiamento e ne sposò la causa. Quarantotto anni di 'azioni' (il)legali, otto presidenti e un sentimento dissimulato dopo, quello per il collaboratore Clyde Tolson, Edgar detterà la sua biografia e le sue imprese.

普通话
影片改编自美国FBI传奇人物J·埃德加·胡佛的故事。1924年,年仅29岁的J·埃德加·胡佛被司法部长提升成为调查局主管。胡佛将“彻底杜绝犯罪行为”作为目标,立即对调查局漏洞百出的体制进行了调整改革,一口气辞掉了上百名特工,并规定只有受过大学教育并具备执法经验的人才有机会得到这份工作。随后,他成立FBI犯罪实验室,并改名调查局为联邦调查局。1950年,他还建立了大名鼎鼎的十大通缉犯名单。据悉,胡佛在任职期间曾利用不法手段收集对手罪证,获得诸多政治权力。在他去世前,关于他是“同性恋加异装癖”的传闻更是为这位强硬执法者的阅历,平添了几分传奇色彩。

J. Edgar Hoover FBI ügynök, a nyomozóiroda vezetője. Kollégái felnéznek rá, profizmusa legendás. Azt azonban senki sem sejti, hogy J. Edgar Hoovernek is vannak titkai, amelyek az egész tekintélyét lerombolhatják, ha kiderülnek.

Español
En 1924, con sólo 29 años, Edgar Hoover fue nombrado director general del FBI para que reorganizara la institución. Ocupó el cargo hasta su muerte en 1972, sobreviviendo a siete presidentes, alguno de los cuales intentó inútilmente destituirlo. Los archivos que Hoover guardaba celosamente, llenos de secretos inconfesables de importantes personalidades, lo convirtieron en uno de los hombres más poderosos y temidos de la historia de los Estados Unidos.

Český
J. Edgar Hoover založil v roce 1935 FBI (Federální úřad pro vyšetřování) a současně byl i jeho ředitelem téměř 40 let až do své smrti v roce 1972 a prakticky dovedl FBI k její nynější podobě. Byl to svým způsobem i nejmocnější muž v USA, jelikož bylo všeobecně známo, že má ve svém trezoru špínu na téměř každou celebritu nebo vyššího politika. Za svého života bojoval s nejrůznějšími druhy organizovaného zločinu a také byl známý pro svoje sexuální skandály (velká obliba v nošení oblečení druhého pohlaví). Stál v čele zrodu centrálního systému otisků prstů a mnoha dalších. Mimo jiné se o něm vědělo, že mnohdy sám zákony překračoval.

Polski
Jako zwierzchnik amerykańskich organów ścigania przez prawie pięćdziesiąt lat, J. Edgar Hoover budził postrach i podziw, był przeklinany i szanowany. Ale za zamkniętymi drzwiami skrywał tajemnice, które mogły zniszczyć jego wizerunek, karierę i życie. Nominowany do Oscara Leonardo DiCaprio ("Incepcja", "Krwawy diament") wciela się w tytułową rolę J. Edgara w dramacie, który ukazuje publiczne i prywatne życie jednej z najbardziej wpływowych, kontrowersyjnych i tajemniczych postaci XX wieku.

Română
De-a lungul vieții sale, J. Edgar Hoover avea să devină cel mai puternic om din culisele scenei politice a Statelor Unite ale Americii. În calitate de șef al FBI-ului, timp de aproape 50 de ani, nimic nu i-a stat în cale, pentru a-și proteja țara. Rezistând schimbării a 8 președinți și desfășurării a 3 războaie, Hoover a luptat cu disperare pentru prevenirea pericolelor care îi vizau țara, luând atitudine chiar și în fața falselor amenințări. Întelegând că informația înseamnă putere și că frica poate genera multiple oportunități, șeful FBI-ului a recurs la această strategie pentru a obține o influență fără precedent și o reputație formidabilă, aproape de neatins.

Drama biográfico sobre a vida pública e privada de J. Edgar Hoover, o controverso diretor e principal nome à frente da mais famosa agência de inteligência do mundo, o FBI, que foi oficialmente fundada em 1935, tornando-se uma eficiente ferramenta de combate ao crime. J. Edgar Hoover ocupou o cargo durante a gestão de oito presidentes americanos e foi o diretor da agência até sua morte, em 1972, aos 77 anos de idade. Hoover foi ao mesmo tempo temido e admirado, odiado e reverenciado; ficou conhecido por causa de seus critérios sempre discutíveis para perseguir ativistas políticos, congressistas e líderes do movimento negro, e ainda impôs seus métodos ilegais para criar arquivos secretos de líderes adversários. Consta na biografia de Hoover, também, sua suposta homossexualidade.

The Mule (2018)Drama2018

Eastwood stars as Earl Stone, a man in his 80s who is broke, alone, and facing foreclosure of his business when he is offered a job that simply requires him to drive. Easy enough, but, unbeknownst to Earl, he’s just signed on as a drug courier for a Mexican cartel. He does well—so well, in fact, that his cargo increases exponentially, and Earl is assigned a handler. But he isn’t the only one keeping tabs on Earl; the mysterious new drug mule has also hit the radar of hard-charging DEA agent Colin Bates. And even as his money problems become a thing of the past, Earl’s past mistakes start to weigh heavily on him, and it’s uncertain if he’ll have time to right those wrongs before law enforcement, or the cartel’s enforcers, catch up to him.

Hang 'Em HighWestern1968

Jed Cooper (Clint Eastwood), an ex-lawman turned rancher, is moving a small herd of cattle when a group of nine men on horseback, led by Captain Wilson (Ed Begley Sr.), ride up and accuse him of having stolen the cattle and killed their owner. They refuse to believe his account, stringing him up by the neck and leaving him for dead. Lucky for him, they don't do the job right, and as Cooper dangles there, barely alive, Deputy U.S. Marshal Bliss (Ben Johnson) spots him and cuts him down. After surviving the next few days in Bliss' tumbleweed wagon with the other prisoners, he is cleared of all accusations and released by Judge Fenton (Pat Hingle). Although Cooper witnesses the hanging of the man who really murdered the owner of the cattle and took Cooper's money, he still wants revenge on the nine men who tried to hang him. Fenton insists that he leave the bringing of them to justice to his deputy marshals. Cooper and Fenton, realizing that they need each other, strike an uneasy bargain, Cooper agrees to wear a badge and bring in the men he's looking for to be tried. This task proves easier said than done as Cooper experiences a number of difficulties in capturing all nine members and bringing them to justice. In the course of his quest, Cooper also makes the acquaintance of a young woman Rachel (Inger Stevens), with her own search for justice. The two of them are drawn together, no more so than when Wilson and two of the others try to gun Cooper down in cold blood. The final confrontation between Cooper and Wilson escalates in violence to its savage, irony-laced conclusion.
