A theatrical trailer for writer-director Larry Cohen's 1977 bio pic "The Private Files of J. Edgar Hoover", starring Broderick Crawford in the titular role and surrounded by an impressive cast that includes Michael Parks, Rip Torn, Jose Ferrer, Celeste Holm, James Wainright, Ronee Blakely, Raymond St.Jacques, John Marley, June Havoc, Andrew Duggan, Michael Sacks, and Brad Dexter.

I didn't know that there is a 1977 biopic of J EDGAR. I find the cast impressive. The reason why the CLINT EASTWOOD version focuses on Hoover's GAYNESS its because the SCREENWRITER DUSTIN LANCE BLACK is GAY! He was the screenwriter of "MILK"

Clint Eastwood's Hoover Bio Staring DiCaprio gets it all wrong.
Sadly, the new Warner Bros. epic is full of errors and misrepresentations.
Here’s the real, never-been-told inside scoop on the celebrated FBI Chief,

@irish89055 Clint Eastwood is making a move about J. Edgar Hoover? I hadn't heard that but it sounds interesting. I will look forward to it.

great movie.... esp the ending scenes.. "he hurt a lot of people" anyone?? too bad those scenes aren't on here yet... But there is hope since Eastwood is apparently making a Hoover movie.. oh, 885 views... guess i'm talkin to a wall..

Broderick Crawford plays Hoover perfectly. This is an excellent movie that was on Encore a year or so ago when I dvr'd it. After seeing it I can not think of Crawford without thinking of J. Edgar Hoover. He plays the role that well.
