If you loved Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, try J. Edgar
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share

bittersweet
What J. Edgar is
Washington DC, autumn, a typewriter clacking. A lifetime of secrets and classified files, a man behind a carefully constructed image. Eastwood examines the dichotomy of a public figure.
