Clint Eastwood's a biopic of J. Edgar Hoover, starring Leo DiCaprio, has always sounded incredibly intriguing, and now we get our first look at the movie with this trailer. The sepia filter may be turned up to max, but it does look pretty good, with DiCaprio playing Hoover both as a young man and old. Hoover helped found the FBI at a time when the US was having a problem with gangsters and then hung on to power for decades, often using rather nafarious tactics on his enemies. However, the film suggests that behind closed doors, he held secrets that would have destroyed his image, his career and his life - most notably his incredibly close relationship with Clyde Tolson (Armie Hammer). J. Edgar is expected to have a major Oscar run, and hits the UK on January 20th.
