The performance of Winslet's career & she's not done yet.

Rating: 10/10 (12 March 2009)

This is a film that is not for the young or for those looking for popcorn fare. This is for ADULTS & those interested in moral questions & justification to all sorts of unspeakable acts that we all are capable of doing. I can't express how good Kate Winslet is in her portrayal. In all of her Oscar nominations this is the best work. She is absolutely convincing playing this morally questionable character. Although she won the Oscar, the young man playing opposite her is excellent as well & it can't be said enough how good he is opposite Mrs. Mendes which is no small feat in itself. This is probably not for anyone younger than 21 & most definitely not for those looking for bubblegum light-hearted Hannah Montana let's just call it *Stuff* Anyone that is familiar & interested in the European theater of World War II are those who will be most interested. I would also say this is acting at it's absolute finest & nobody does it better than Kate Winslet. I'm betting Meryl Streep's 15 or 16 nominations will someday be overtaken by this beautiful superb woman. I'm hoping that we keep seeing this excellent actress for another 50 years to come because as long as people keep writing good work, she can do it.
