J. Edgar director Clint Eastwood thinks FBI founder Hoover may have been a crossdresser, but says it may just be a rumor started out of vengeance, according to an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

Eastwood discusses the research involved in making the film. "Along the way, people accused him of [that]," Eastwood tells the Reporter. "But nobody knows how accurate it was. Evidently the woman who accused him of that, her husband had been sent to the slammer by Hoover. So you don't know how much was vengeance." Eastwood, however, says he believes "there is a certain amount of truth" to all the allegations, but wanted to retain some ambiguity. One scene in the film shows Hoover wearing his mother's dress."

Hoover lived with a frat friend all his life so if it is beleived that all redblooded American guys have to have a sex life then there should be some evidence of Hoover having a string of women...did he or was his sex life with the guy?

Nice to see Eastwood thinks that a hint of CDing is good for a film...it'll just reinforce the great unwashed's perceptions about any male body that puts a dress on.
