Most problematic of all is the character of fictional FBI Agent Jack Solomon (Jack O’Connell), who is tasked with leading the surveillance and digging up dirt on Seberg and becomes deeply conflicted about his job.The film spends far too much time on this guy — both at home and at work — as his sympathies for Seberg seem to border on some sort of weird crush.
Jean Seberg’s story, from her meteoric rise to stardom to various career and romantic ups and downs to the activism that drew the attention of the FBI to her tragic death at age 40, is the stuff of a classic Hollywood biopic.
Why are we wasting time on some made-up FBI agent brooding at a hotel bar, obsessing over screen tests of Jean and getting into domestic drama at home?
