Episode Description from the Publisher

Sticking with last episode’s theme, we’ll continue looking at period pieces and films that utilize and examine history. Three of the films in this episode detail historic events — the inception of a social media platform, innovation on the baseball diamond and investigative journalists uncovering a scandal involving the Catholic Church. But the fourth film — which is the one we’ll be leading off this episode with — deals more with historical fiction. 1:42 - 20:27: National Treasure (Lucy Peterson) 20:28 - 42:41: The Social Network (Wyatt Hall)  43:04 - 1:14:11: Moneyball (Elmer Guardado) 1:14:12 - 1:46:02: Spotlight (Scott Chasen)
