L&rsquo;id\u00e9e de consacrer plus de deux heures \u00e0 J.&nbsp;Edgar Hoover se r\u00e9v\u00e8le \u00eatre bonne, bien s\u00fbr pour la r\u00e9ussite de celui qui a r\u00e9volutionn\u00e9 le F.B.I. &#8211; mais aussi et surtout pour les aspects moins connus de l&rsquo;homme. Leonardo DiCaprio trouve d&rsquo;ailleurs un nouveau r\u00f4le \u00e0 la mesure de son talent gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 cette personnalit\u00e9 peu commune. Clint Eastwood joue habilement d&rsquo;allers retours entre un J.&nbsp;Edgar d\u00e9peint dans ses derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es, faisant \u00e9crire des m\u00e9moires \u00e0 sa gloire &#8211; et ce m\u00eame J.&nbsp;Edgar plus jeune et montant les \u00e9chelons du pouvoir. Les multiples facettes \u00e0 explorer rendent le film passionnant : tant par l&rsquo;ascension impressionnante que par l&rsquo;aspect m\u00e9galomane qui se d\u00e9veloppe chez le directeur du service de police. Pour arriver \u00e0 ses fins, le premier dirigeant du F.B.I. a parfois des m\u00e9thodes discutables, mais jamais Eastwood ne prend v\u00e9ritablement parti. En ce sens, le fond du film est particuli\u00e8rement bien trait\u00e9 &#8211; m\u00eame si l&rsquo;on conna\u00eet les prises de positions politiques du r\u00e9alisateur. Et puis en fil rouge, l&rsquo;histoire d&rsquo;amour reni\u00e9e qui na\u00eet entre J. Edgar et son adjoint laisse sans cesse planer un myst\u00e8re troublant qui contribue \u00e0 la qualit\u00e9 de l&rsquo;\u0153uvre.<br \/> Dommage toutefois que la subtilit\u00e9 ne soit pas au rendez-vous, surtout sur ce dernier aspect. Trop souvent en effet, Clint Eastwood force le trait en appuyant des plans qui m\u00e9riteraient d&rsquo;\u00eatre plus fins : sa fa\u00e7on par exemple de s&rsquo;attarder sur un po\u00e8me, musique lancinante en fond, manque cruellement de tact. \u00c0 l&rsquo;instar du maquillage grossier des acteurs jouant les r\u00f4les des vieillards (davantage encore pour Armie Hammer que pour DiCaprio), <i>J.&nbsp;Edgar<\/i> aurait finalement gagn\u00e9 \u00e0 \u00eatre mieux (moins ?) mis en sc\u00e8ne.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3885,"template":"","actor":[9762,9765,9759,9768,5888,5359,5197,9767,9758,9771,9769,9760,9770,9763,9757,3064,9364,9761,9773,4258,5684,4899,9766,9764,9772],"collection":[8334],"genre":[2892,2671,2814],"class_list":["post-3518","movie","type-movie","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","actor-adam-driver","actor-amanda-schull","actor-armie-hammer","actor-barbara-keegan","actor-denis-ohare","actor-dermot-mulroney","actor-ed-westwick","actor-emily-alyn-lind","actor-geoff-pierson","actor-geoff-stults","actor-gerald-downey","actor-gunner-wright","actor-jeffrey-donovan","actor-jessica-hecht","actor-josh-hamilton","actor-josh-lucas","actor-judi-dench","actor-kaitlyn-dever","actor-lea-coco","actor-lea-thompson","actor-leonardo-dicaprio","actor-naomi-watts","actor-roberta-bassin","actor-sadie-calvano","actor-thomas-langston","collection-clint-eastwood","genre-crime","genre-drame","genre-histoire"],"acf":[],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/9cKuVojRyR3r4gy05b6tzX62xQZ.jpg",1000,1500,false],"thumbnail":["http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/9cKuVojRyR3r4gy05b6tzX62xQZ-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/9cKuVojRyR3r4gy05b6tzX62xQZ-200x300.jpg",200,300,true],"medium_large":["http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/9cKuVojRyR3r4gy05b6tzX62xQZ-768x1152.jpg",768,1152,true],"large":["http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/9cKuVojRyR3r4gy05b6tzX62xQZ-683x1024.jpg",683,1024,true],"1536x1536":["http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/9cKuVojRyR3r4gy05b6tzX62xQZ.jpg",1000,1500,false],"2048x2048":["http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/9cKuVojRyR3r4gy05b6tzX62xQZ.jpg",1000,1500,false],"neve-blog":["http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/9cKuVojRyR3r4gy05b6tzX62xQZ.jpg",413,620,false],"rpwe-thumbnail":["http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/9cKuVojRyR3r4gy05b6tzX62xQZ-45x45.jpg",45,45,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Babou :)","author_link":"http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/author\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/movie\/3518","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/movie"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/movie"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3885"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3518"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"actor","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/actor?post=3518"},{"taxonomy":"collection","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/collection?post=3518"},{"taxonomy":"genre","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.balie.me\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/genre?post=3518"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
