“Spotlight” continues to pick up steam after wins in Los Angeles and Boston yesterday. Now Washington DC area film critics chime in. George Miller also cited for directing “Mad Max: Fury Road.” It does appear Miller is headed to nods from the DGA and Academy, which is fine. Nice nod here to Idris Elba.
