Leonardo DiCaprio - All power for moms favorite

The sex scandals of the powerful in his developing power. In "J. Edgar" Leonardo DiCaprio plays the legendary FBI director J. Edgar Hoover as a gay mother and son tireless blackmailer. Director Clint Eastwood made an infamous character drama unexpectedly tender.
A smile, so inviting, like a rampart, a skull, so delicate like a wrecking ball - the historical images that exist from FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover exude a menacing charm. Their message: This is a man no one gets out of office, this man skin other from office. 48 years he was the chief investigator of his authority. Coolidge, Hoover, Roosevelt, Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon - U.S. Presidents came and went, J. Edgar Hoover was.
For the role of perhaps the most powerful American of the last century Leonardo DiCaprio is now the last stage in its development to the Super Actor. DeNiros massively portly "Raging Bull", Brando with cotton plugs in the jaws murmuring "Godfather" - the now iconographic representations of hubris and power will oscillate if DiCaprio is the back-room patrons in Washington.Where Hoover placed his massive body, there is no room for a second, whom Hoover fixated with his withering look, its existence in the political arena of Washington is as good as extinct. Clint Eastwood's biopic "J. Edgar" tells how a man half a century of accumulated influence in the political operation - and grows with the body as well as the abundance of power.

Where: Time and again emphasize the human environment in Hoover with admiration, that it would act as cushion for the growing "solid flesh". The mother (Judi Dench) says coyly, as she spoke with her lover. And even with J. Edgar's henchman and later deputy Clyde Tolson (Armie Hammer), who will choose to Hoover suits (wide lapels, thin pinstripes!), It sounds as if the flattery addressed to a lover. Love is in the air, but it is not translated into action. At least not in the obvious.
Neither the Oedipal relationship with embossed single mother still breaks for the homoerotic sexual concretion colleagues here in train, the engine looks for another valve: the work. Specifically, the steady expansion of power of the monitoring apparatus called the FBI takes over its management Hoover in 1924 as a relatively straightforward Bureau of Investigation, to put it in the next few decades to hunt the dreaded Communists always more powers and an army of staff to the most powerful authority of the U.S. to expand. At the end he has built a juggernaut from compromising files and files that only he and closest associates can overlook entirely.The FBI as a system of repression, directed from the repressed sexual drive of his top representatives: be bored this narrowing interpretation of complex political power structures, rather, would find director Eastwood and his screenwriter Dustin Lance Black (also wrote Gus Van Sant's brilliant political drama "Milk") is not a coherent and exciting form for her story.

The filmmakers follow the memoirs, Hoover the 135-minute-long film as voice-over dictates and combine them - unreliable - omissions with sequences that illustrate the repressed inner life of the protagonist. While Hoover reported in the state-supporting timbre as he grouped a band of intrepid men around him (which of course must not be married, so they can concentrate on the patriotic job), the photos show how to be working the rugged character among his fellows seems. Collegial handholding not excluded, however, must not be more.
Eastwood directed Hoover as a tragic figure who transmits their fear of their own sexuality in a fear of social opponents. This preserves the director a subtle, sometimes even tenderly intimate look. Imagine, the great engine and displacement interpreting the behavior of Martin Scorsese ("Shutter Iceland") his regular cast DiCaprio would set the scene: Scorsese Hoover probably would have completed a real crossdressers orgy, the inner martyrdom of masked gays would be in a Dark Room -phantasmagoria been turned.
Eastwood, however, that obtains its expansive feature films with the silent, but a lot of staying power ballad watched his political ignoramus in parts with the sentiment of a country song. The spread of the FBI chief fetish inclinations (he is privately lingerie have worn) are processed at him for a scene of returned mourning: The aged Hoover lies down beads and petticoat to his late mother - and stares in the mirror at the people who he never could be. Hoover a tear trickles down her cheek, the soundtrack composed by Eastwood himself heard in a minor key.Despite several templates for Flash, speculative scenes of Eastwood keeps his balladic tone. Even as the ever-changing sets Hoover's blackmail in the picture: Here sits America's top sniffer to every official correspondence with his papers in the anteroom of the President. The heads of state change, the intimidation is almost always the same: Mrs. Roosevelt was caught in a lesbian relationship, Mr. Kennedy met with a starlet in a hotel room. Hoover comes with audio and video recordings into the Oval Office - and comes with some more powers out again.
This is the political dramas of this kind for unusual engine logic, Clint Eastwood, opens for its lovingly called by his first name protagonists J. Edgar: The sex of the other was his power.
