The Reader : Movie of the year
We all know that the Oscar night is coming soon. 5 excellent movies are nominated for the movie of the year. Here's the list of the nominees : Milk, Frost Nixon, The curions case of Benjamin Button, Slumdog and The Reader. Although, one of these movie is clearely the best one and it's The Reader. Let me tell you why this movie took such a huge place in my heart when I saw it.
The synopsis goes like this. A women in the thirthee's, Hannah Smith(Kate Winslet), meets a young fifteen years old boy,Michael Berg (David Kross). Slowly, a love story is starting to grow between them. Unfortunately, after a summer of love, Hannah goes away. They won't see each other for 10 years. But the situatuation in wich they'll meet again in not as romantic has we could imagine. Hannah is in front of a tribunal for crimes she commited 20 years ago during World War II. Michael, who's now a young law student, will be devasteted. Though, he has a massive argument that could save Hannah from a life time prison. What is he going to do...
That being said, I really want to talk about why it should win the best movie Oscar. We all know about the atrocity of World War II and how nazis destroyed thousands and thousands of Jewish people lives. But what is remarquable about The Reader, is that we have a different point of you of this historical tragedy. Because, Hannah is not one of the major caracter of the masacre, she's judged for the errors she commited under orders. Her point of vue is imortant though. It becomes really interesting to take care of her arguments, because for her, what she did was normal because she was just applying rules. She just wanted everybody to be happy. It doesn't excuses hey acts, but it makes us understand why, in real life, some people did what they did. You come out of this movie with a different perception of things, you're a a little bit uncomfortable about that, but the most important thing is that it really makes you think. What did I learn? You always, always, have to see both side of a problem bfore you judge, because you might be wrong.
I think that if everyone could learn a lesson from this movie, it would be great. Beside the fact that the movie it self was amazing, the lesson that comes out of it is even bigger. Because isn't it what we want to do in life, learn and go forward?
