An emotional, thrilling film

Rating: 9/10 (20 September 2013)

I rarely had the opportunity to watch such an intense film. The story begins in a strange, rather uncomfortable manner. It takes a while for the watcher to understand the message beneath. So much emotion...! I loved it!
The actor's performance is exquisite. Kate Winslet is a great performer and her fans will not be disappointed with this role. It's a haunting and heart-breaking. Their performances are jaw-droppingly brilliant.
When "The Reader's" credits rolled, I sat quietly shaken by what I had witnessed. It's a film that is impossible to forget. When a grown Michael asks Hanna, "Have you spent much time thinking about the past?" Heartbroken, she replies, "It doesn't matter what I think. It doesn't matter what I feel. The dead are still dead." She's right.
