Winslet and missing scenes.

Rating: Null/10 (26 July 2012)

I watched ,"The Reader",last night and really enjoyed it. I thought that it was an intelligent screenplay and a wonderful cast ironically with the exception of Oscar winner Kate Winslet. Her performance was not bad enough to unbalance the film but she really was not a great choice for the main part.Crucially the plot needed her to mirror the complexity of the situation.Instead her German accent was weak, her range was limited and made it impossible to have any empathy for her.For the love story of the film to make any sense she need to be erotic and show love for Michael. The missing scenes were of the actually events for which she was being charged. No burning barn,no executions.No space for those who actually suffered at her hands.
