I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. I've read several books on Hoover as well as the FBI in general (the evolution). This was really interesting, and Leo, as always, pulls in a brilliant performance, demonstrating the calculation.

I thought it was good, too. And if I remember right, the more controversial allegations against Hoover were handled delicately, hinted at rather than accepted as proven facts.

Well I don't think they ever did "prove" that, but everything certainly leads one to draw that conclusion, including the cemetery scene, the will and who got left what, the living arrangements, etc. But they did an exceptional job at being subtle and drawing at inference. Agreed.
