In this year's talked-about Academy Awards, Tom McCarthy's film Spotlight, stole the spotlight when it became the night's winner, taking home the honorary Oscar for best motion picture. Ever since, all eyes or on the movie that stars Michael Keaton, Rachel McAdams, John Slattery, Live Schreit and Mark Ruffalo among others in the A-list cast. Starting Monday March 21 at 12:00 pm, one lucky Mstars reader will become a winner too, and take home our Spotlight prize pack! The Facebook contest ends April 4th, at 11:59 p.m.

The film tells a true story of the oldest running newspaper, 'The Boston Globe' and how its investigative reporting team, 'Spotlight' uncovered the reports of numerous Roman Catholic priests accused of sexually abusing children in the Boston area. The impressive narrative generates a thrilling and emotional experience. While characters shine a light on truth, your heart is anything but light when you remember the events of the biographical film are very much like the real life events that occurred at the Boston Globe in 2001. According to History.vs.Hollywood 's article, even the characters look like the real life journalists!

Participate in this exclusive giveaway and get the chance to take home the official reprint of the original Boston Global newspaper story. The prize pack also includes the Spotlight Blu-ray DVD, a CD soundtrack and a film score soundtrack signed by composer Howard Shore!
