Saturday NOVEMBER 14 2009  THE READER ( 15)

Starring Kate Winslett & Ralph Fiennes

 

A 2008 drama film based on the 1995 German novel of the same name

 

Tells the story of Michael Berg, a German lawyer who as a teenager in the late 1950s had an affair with an older woman, Hanna Schmitz, who then disappeared only to resurface years later as one of the defendants in a war crimes trial stemming from her actions as a guard at a Nazi concentration camp in the later years of World War II. Michael realizes that Hanna is keeping a personal secret she believes is worse than her Nazi past - a secret which, if revealed, could help her at the trial.
