Spotlight – 2016
Tom McCarthy directs this hard-hitting true story of how the Boston Globe “Spotlight” team, the oldest continuously operating newspaper investigative journalist unit in the United States, uncovered the massive scandal of child molestation and cover-up within the local Catholic Archdiocese, shaking the entire Catholic Church to its core.
The Boston Globe was very helpful with the set and approved the costume design, production design, actors, actresses, and script.
In 2016, the film was shown at the National Center for Victims of Crime, a.k.a. National Training Institute Conference, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, as a training source. Attendees included victim advocates, law enforcement officers, prosecuting attorneys, lawyers, and social workers, who work with victims and arrest and prosecute pedophiles.
