"Spotlight," after which the film is named, is group of high octane specialty research reporters at the Boston Globe. In search for a new long-term project, when a new editor comes on board, they find themselves in the middle of a story, that most people don't want told.

Tom McCarthy, the film's director, is one of those jack-of-all-trades.

Actor, Editor, Writer...

Among his past work, as director - The Station Agent and The Visitor.

To me, Spotlight is in a class of its own. Beautiful written, cut, shot... you name it.

And it all came together as the Best Picture of 2015.

Shot on digital, and finished as a 2k DI, the resultant Blu-ray from Universal, should be perfect.

And it is, in every regard.

This is one that you need to see.

Image - 5

Audio - 5

4k Up-rez - 5

Pass / Fail - Pass

Very Highly Recommended

On par with ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN. It just sucks that objective media journalism is almost non-existent now. Why haven't we been protesting its demise? All of us (and our democracy) depended upon it for unbiased information....once.

This really is a terrific movie, with great performances by everyone in the cast. It was certainly my choice for best picture of 2015.
