Xiao Lizi was abandoned by Oscar again, I haven't watched "The Artist" and "Better Life", but at least I personally think Xiao Lizi's performance is better than George Clooney in "Descendants" and Gary Oldman in "The Pot", But maybe Oscar just likes to "reward" those actors who have made a breakthrough. George Clooney rarely has such a one-on-one lead, and he can give full play to the opportunity to perform. He has done a good job. As for Uncle Gary, he has not been nominated once, and To be encouraged. So the sadness became Xiao Lizi...
I was amazed when Hoover met Tolson for the first time in the restaurant. Armie Hammer is very good. At a glance, people think that he is gay. Li Zi is also super in place, the shy expression, the twisted posture, the innocent little boy has all the things he should have when he sees his sweetheart.
After all, this is a legend. After all, his life contains too much information. All aspects of the film are involved, but it seems to stop at the end. This is a pity. Storytelling has no focus. Fortunately, the life of a legend is already wonderful even if it is told in a straightforward manner.
Four stars, little plum, one day the Oscar statuette will be in your hands, I support you.

J. Edgar quotes

  • [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.

    J. Edgar Hoover: Funny how even the dearest face will fade away in time, but most clearly I remember your eyes with a sort of teasing smile in them and the feeling of that soft spot just northeast of the corner of your mouth.
