J Edgar





J Edgar

J Edgar is a wonderful movie that deserved the Academy Award nomination. The story was well crafted and it made me think about our government and how the FBI started. However the portion of the movie that broke my heart is the romance portion. As private as J Edgar was, I doubt that he wanted to have his love story shared. I doubt that he wanted people to know about his love affair or that he was gay. If he really wanted share that information then he would have openly prior to his death. However that is not how we see or learn about J Edgar's love story. It was hard to understand how a man that prided himself on honor and privacy would approve of the making of this movie. I wish we as a society could learn how to show respect toward peoples’ privacy.  Sometimes we need to mind our own business and stay out of other people's lives.

Enough of my soap box -a good story is a good story so you should rent the movie. It is well written so definitely put it in your Netflix queue or rent it at Redbox. ENJOY!
