As watching certain movies was part of an extra credit assignment, I was not expecting to enjoy the first film I watched, Spotlight. However, Spotlight was the type of film that you think about long after the final credits run down your screen. It compiled three of my favorite genres into one cohesive film – history, drama, and crime. Because of this, it was both enthralling and enlightening. The affair the Spotlight journalists were investigating was rather touchy, and it was alarming to see how many Catholic priests in Boston alone were found guilty of child molestation. I think this story has resonated with me so much because of its shock value, as well as the spectacular acting throughout. The team embodied what I believe investigative journalism should be – bravery, truth, and justice.
