An Oscar Winner Film That Has Been Banned In All Arabian Countries.
29 February 2016 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

In 2001, editor Marty Baron of The Boston Globe assigns a team of journalists to investigate allegations against John Geoghan, an unfrocked priest accused of molesting more than 80 boys. Led by editor Walter "Robby" Robinson (Michael Keaton), reporters Michael Rezendes (Mark Ruffalo), Matt Carroll and Sacha Pfeiffer interview victims and try to unseal sensitive documents. The reporters make it their mission to provide proof of a cover-up of sexual abuse within the Roman Catholic Church.

This is a great movie with real facts exposing the illicit incest and sexual abuse committed by Catholic priests against innocent children.

There is no explicit sex on this movie,it is Rated R for the pedophilia topic.

Yesterday this excellent movie won the Oscar for best movie of the year.

This movie has been banned in all Arabian countries where sex,gay and lesbian sex,pedophilia secretly happens in Arabian Countries.
