This Sunday, FFIR Patsy Cooper and I took a group of students to see Stephen Daldry’s “The Reader,” which has been nominated for Best Picture. Kate Winslet has been nominated for her role in the movie, playing a woman named Hanna, who has two life-altering secrets.
I’ve posted some thoughts about the film over at the U-Hall Oscarfest blog:
