I finally watched Spotlight yesterday.
It was so absorbing, well-done and profoundly sad. I could not believe it actually got made and that the church did not somehow influence the filmmakers to bury it. Of course, this morning, I read of yet one more place. When are pedophile priests going to be weeded out? The sheer enormity of the problem floors me. This morning: Staggering' abuse cover-up in Altoona-Johnstown Catholic diocese, grand jury says March 1, 2016 10:30 AM By Peter Smith / Pittsburgh Post-Gazette ALTOONA, Pa. — Hundreds of children were molested, raped and destined to lasting psychological trauma by at least 50 priests and others associated with the Roman Catholic Diocese of Altoona-Johnstown across half a century, a state grand jury has found in denouncing coverups orchestrated by two bishops and enabled by the law enforcement officials they controlled. The conspiracy amounted to “soul murder,” said the report by the 37th Statewide Investigating Grand Jury, released today nearly two years after the grand jury was impaneled. At a press conference here this morning, Attorney General Kathleen Kane said that horrendous acts of abuse were committed by priests, and called it a ”day of reckoning.” The report said no one could be charged for the crimes it detailed, either because they happened too long ago under the statute of limitations for such prosecutions, a time limit that the report recommends be extended, or because of witness trauma. http://www.post-gazette.com/news/sta...s/201603010091

Room. the struggle, emotionally. Such a good indie film. Naked among wolves so dark and so real. Terribly sad.

Took my B-man to see Eddie the Eagle last night because I won the coin toss. So, thankfully Kung-Fu Panda will wait for another day! Eddie was a perfect mom-son date night movie and he even reluctantly admitted that he liked it after. We love the movies where the underdog prevails. It was heartwarming.

The New Girlfriend: Director François Ozon’s :screen adaptation of a dark story by the British mystery writer Ruth Rendell (french w/subtitles)
A young woman makes a surprising discovery about the husband of her late best friend. Director Ozon has never tried to conceal his influences, foremost among them Hitchcock and Almodovar and his exploration of cross-dressing, gender fluidity and desire in this movie is very evident of that! It's a little different but on the whole I enjoyed it! If you don't mind subtitles check it out and see what you think
