Tom McCarthy: 10/27/15

In App anhören
Tom McCarthy, the writer and director of Spotlight, joins Brian this week to talk about his new film which tells the true story of how a Pulitzer Prize-winning Boston Globe team unmasked the widespread cover-up of child abuse in Boston's Catholic Church. Tom has written and directed a number of other great films including The Station Agent, The Visitor, and Win Win. Today, the two talk about how Tom bounced back from a critical and commercial failure in his 2014 movie, The Cobbler, to create what is now being regarded, in Spotlight, as a frontrunner for this year's best picture. Plus, Tom talks about his career as an actor, the role of journalism in today's society, and how some of our most calamitous mistakes aren't the result of one big bad decision, but of a lot of small mistakes, winks, and people looking the other way.
