Remember Donald Rumsfeld and all the waterboarding that went on when the United States was after Bin Laden? “The Report” is about that CIA/Rumsfeld/Cheney-sanctioned torture, which produced no results and was then covered up. Top-notch movie. Right up there with “Spotlight,” my top pick of 2015 that focuses on another mega-scandal.
