Five years ago, “Spotlight” rocked film audiences
And it’s worth watching a second (or 3rd, 4th) time!
This is the five year anniversary of the release of an incredible film, Spotlight.
We agree with one of the public relations professionals who works with Boston Cardinal Seán O’Malley. When the film came out, he said the archdiocese “would not discourage people from seeing it” and that viewing it “should be an individual choice.”

Yes, it’s your choice of course. And we hope you choose to see it (or see it again). It’s a powerful yet also entertaining reminder of how deceptive and powerful church officials have been (and largely still are) while also being an uplifting reminder of the wisdom of Dr. Martin Luther King, who said “No lie lives forever.”
It’s great film.
Don’t just take our word for it. Look at these facts and figures about Spotlight from Wikipedia:
