The movie is excellent, Rachel McAdams is at her finest on it. And, seeing this interview, wow, she's really captured Sacha's essence. Amazing!

This story and film was a team effort. They all had one goal. Hollywood, when focused, does amazing work when they stay focused and deliver a remarkable film, as it happened, no frills. Gives me hope.

Rachel McAdams is my all time celeb crush, she's effortlessly stunning and she can tackle different types of genre, proving that she's one versatile actress in Hollywood!! Imagine how proud Sacha feels to have Rachel McAdams portraying her on screen, and I hope Rachel can win Best Supporting Actress for her phenomenal performance in Spotlight!! She's just the next level of incredible and fingers crossed she finally deserved an Oscar glory!!

I watched the movie recently and Rachel did so good in it! She really made me want to go to Sacha when I have a problem! Rachel is just so talented and beautiful and lovely! Whether she's playing a mean girl or a caring reporter, she just blows me away!

I love how Rachel doesn't play humble and pretend that she "never knew this was going to be special." That's rare for me to see these days. Defend your craft people!
