Has anyone here seen The Reader? I haven’t seen it yet because it looks too depressing to watch in the winter time! I was curious if the movie made Winslet’s character look terrible or more sympathetic. On the surface, you would think that this person her character is based upon would simply be very evil.

I haven't seen it, but a couple of people told me that she actually delivers a better performance in Revolutionary Road.

Rod Lurie (the Contender, Deterrence) wrote a big editorial about The Reader effectively being "Nazi-apologia".
