J. Edgar
As I watched J. Edgar, I wondered what hack directed this film. The tone seemed all wrong — it felt campy. Leonardo was bombastic. The makeup looked horrendous. What hack would do this on a biopic?
Clint Eastwood. Wow. I couldn’t believe it.
It’s another strange effort by Eastwood.
He makes the old people look like Charles Foster Kane. He let Leonardo chew some scenery.
2 of 5 stars.
