About This Movie
So, 'Mr. Hoover and I' is one of those documentaries that dives deep into the psyche of its subject, or rather, subjects. Emile DeAntonio's candid take on J. Edgar Hoover is laced with a palpable disdain, which gives the film a unique edge. It's not just about Hoover, though; it speaks volumes about the broader context of political intolerance in America. The pacing is deliberate, allowing for those moments of reflection, and you can really feel the weight of DeAntonio's words. The practical effects are minimal, focusing more on interviews and archival footage than flashy visuals. It’s raw, yet thought-provoking, carving out a niche in the documentary landscape that many forget amidst the more polished entries.
