“The most powerful man in the world.”

John Edgar Hoover (Leonardo DiCaprio) wants an FBI that answers to no one but him, built on files, fingerprints and his own name. Clint Eastwood follows him from the 1919 Palmer Raids through almost fifty years as the most feared lawman in America, with Clyde Tolson (Armie Hammer) at his side. Behind the closed office doors lie secrets that would have cost him his image, his career and his life.
