Twelve years after The Boston Globe’s Spotlight team of journalists won a Pulitzer Prize, a film based on the team’s work is collecting high honors.
“Spotlight” was named 2015’s best film by the Indiana Film Journalists Association. The drama, which explores the Catholic Church’s cover-up of clergy sexual abuse, also won in the categories of best original screenplay and best supporting actor for Mark Ruffalo.
“Room,” runner-up in the best-film category, won three Indiana Film Journalists Association awards: Emma Donoghue’s script in the best adapted screenplay category, Brie Larson for best actress and Jacob Tremblay for best actor.
