In the Oscar-winning “Spotlight,”
there’s a scene in which one of the reporters is horrified to discover
that a halfway house for pedophile priests is located just around the
corner from his house.
Pablo
Larrain’s “The Club” goes inside a house like that. Just as the Chilean
director didn’t flinch from looking at the dark heart of political
corruption in films like “Tony Manero,” he peers into the darkness of
religious corruption in this new film. The film played Monday at
Sundance Cinemas as part of the Wisconsin Film Festival.
