“It's an incredible education [for the movie J. Edgar Hoover] . It was like I did a college course on J. Edgar Hoover but not knowing and understanding the history and reading the books, but understanding what motivated this man was the most fascinating part of the research.” MenBookCoursesReadingUnderstandingKnowingCollegeResearchIncrediblesFascinatingMotivatedNot KnowingHooverJ Edgar HooverKnowing And UnderstandingCollege Courses Author:Dustin Lance Black
“If you're a history buff, you know about J. Edgar Hoover. He was likely the most powerful man in the US. If you start reading about him, the books contradict each other constantly. I was often left with very little sense of the man personally. I had a sense of what he did and didn't do and what people disagreed about whether he did this or didn't do this or that, but I was like, "Why? Why was he doing all of this?" That was my big question.” PeopleIfsKnowsMenLittlesBookBigsReadingLeftPowerfulHe ManMost PowerfulBig QuestionsHooverPowerful ManJ Edgar Hoover Author:Dustin Lance Black
