Revive investigating reporting - movies that matter

Rating: 8/10 (13 March 2016)

Spotlight is as much about "spotlighting" the realistic drama involved in investigating reporting, as it is a documentary about The Boston Globe.
Talented acting throughout the documentary keeps the story's facts moving along with the excellent performances. In my opinion, more movies should highlight the value of investigative reporting. It helps to explain the professional risks journalists take when covering controversial subjects, written with the intention of revealing truths, based on facts. "Spotlight" supports freedom of the press and portrays why this right matters.
