Spotlight
Dir. Tom McCarthy (2015, IMDb #217)
Oh yeah, cool, Spotlight (2015), cool. Just cast all your beige actors as lowly interns (Zarrin Darnell-Martin), cops (Martin Roach), waiters (Neion George), and receptionists (Janet Pinnick) why don’t you?
What is this film about, anyway?
Oh. The cover up of massive and systemic child molestation perpetrated by the Catholic Church? Yeah, okay, that’s a white people thing.
