J. Edgar

On Saturday night Amanda and I saw J. Edgar - Clint Eastwood’s new film starring Leonardo DiCaprio. 



I highly recommend it. Eastwood is a great director (I’ve decided after seeing Gran Torino and). His films are simple and clear. Good honest storytelling. It’s as if over all the years he’s been in the film business he’s mastered what is important and what is extraneous. As Amanda said, he knows when all the audience needs to see is a grimace and a grunt (rather than text for example).
