The Hamptons International Film Festival (HIFF) has selected “Spotlight” and “Carol” as its Saturday and Sunday Centerpiece films, respectively.
Coming out of Telluride and TIFF with early Oscar buzz, “Spotlight” depicts the true story of how The Boston Globe uncovered a massive child molestation scandal within the Catholic Church. Michael Keaton, Mark Ruffalo, Rachel McAdams and Stanley Tucci star.
“Carol,” which has already picked up its own accolades at the Cannes International Film Festival, centers around Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara, who play two very different women who are drawn into an unexpected love affair.
The Hamptons International Film Festival runs October 8-12. Watch a trailer for “Spotlight” above.
