When the newspaper's tenacious "Spotlight" team of reporters delves into allegations of abuse in the Catholic Church, their year-long investigation uncovers a decades-long cover-up at the highest levels of Boston's religious, legal, and government establishment, touching off a wave of revelations around the world. Directed by Academy Award-nominee Tom McCarthy, SPOTLIGHT is a tense investigative dramatic-thriller, tracing the steps to one of the biggest cover-ups in modern times." Chosen by the National Society of Film Critics as the Best Picture of 2015.Please RSVP to Cathy Hartmann, MA '78 at Pineapplecathy@msn.comNewcomers are welcome!
