It was a tight race between\u2019The Big Short,\u2019 \u2018The Revanent\u2019 and \u2018Spotlight\u2019 and \u2018the latter coming out on top.<\/p>\n<p>You couldn\u2019t imagine three more different films going head to head for Best Picture at the Oscars, but ultimately Spotlight won bragging rights at the 2016 Academy Awards. The film about a team of journalists who uncovered pedophile priest scandal in Boston took home the big prize in a super tight race!<\/p>\n<p>In accepting the award, one of the producers noted that \u201cthis film gave a voice to survivors,\u201d of the pedophile priest story and that, \u201cPope Francis, it\u2019s time to protect children and restore the faith! Wow, pretty powerful stuff. Another producer noted that they had a \u201cperfectly calibrated ensemble\u201d with their amazing cast. We couldn\u2019t agree more, this terrific group of actors had a really hard story to tell and did it with such power and passion.<\/p>\n<div><div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_62737\"  width=\"1140\" height=\"641\"  data-origwidth=\"1140\" data-origheight=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hCuBt2W7gfo?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&cc_load_policy=0&cc_lang_pref=&iv_load_policy=1&loop=0&rel=1&fs=1&playsinline=0&autohide=2&theme=dark&color=red&controls=1&disablekb=0&\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/div>\n<div><div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_65346\"  width=\"1140\" height=\"641\"  data-origwidth=\"1140\" data-origheight=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YJ7L8-iGN2g?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&cc_load_policy=0&cc_lang_pref=&iv_load_policy=1&loop=0&rel=1&fs=1&playsinline=0&autohide=2&theme=dark&color=red&controls=1&disablekb=0&\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There you have it, \u2018Spotlight\u2019 is officially the Academy Awards selection as the best film of 2015.
