J. Edgar - a 2011 biopic of the most controversial first director of FBI, J. Edgar Hoover and its director until his death in 1972. The film details all the dirty tricks he has done during his tenure and depicts his megalomaniac streak, his homosexuality, cross dressing, private files on top politicians like Richard Nixon etc. The secret files on Nixon and others were ostensibly destroyed by his long time secretary. The main lead brilliantly played by Leonardo Caprio and the female secretary played by Naomi Watts were brilliant. This is a brilliant hard hitting biopic directed by Clint Eastwood and does not depict Hoover in good light at all. Wonder why we don't get such hard hitting biopics against our political netas here or are the producers/ directors scared of the retribution!!
