Sex with Kate in The Reader

Everyone wants to know the same thing, David Kross, the young German actor who plays young Michael Berg in the movie of "The Reader," what's it like to have sex with Kate Winslet. Yes, and? A reporter is dying to know and puts words in his mouth, it's like acting, right? No. It's like choreography, Kross scowls, having said the same thing to many reporters on this, the press day for "The Reader." And, not remembering anyone named in the credits, who is the choreographer? Director Stephen Daldry, answers Kross. And that, in a nutshell explains the excellence of this new movie based on the controversial novel by Bernhard Schlink with screenplay by playwright David Hare and masterminded by the director of "The Hours" who just so happens to have also directed the dance musical Billy Elliot, the hottest ticket on Broadway. Set in post Holocaust Germany, Stephen Daldry's new movie is about a young teenager who has a prolonged and tender affair with a woman 20 years his senior; after the affair ends, he finds out a deep, dark secret about her. As he learns in literature class, all the great books hinge on someone having such a deep, dark secret. And Kate Winslet's character Hanna Schmitz has at least two, the one to which she willingly admits is the more outrageous to us, that as a Nazi guard in a concentration camp, she stood by allowing 300 victims to burn to death in a church. The other, so painful to her that she is willing to go to prison to keep it hidden, is that she cannot read. How strange is the human psyche! This odd and fascinating character was cooked up by writer Schlink for his 1995 book, controversial as Schlink said, because of Hanna's remorseless, astonishingly cold lack of morality. In court, she explains why she did not open the church door: they would have escaped. We could not let that happen, she says clearly bewildered at this foolish question. Speaking on that press day this week after having taught his final class of the semester at Cordoza Law School—Schlink is lawyer and judge as well as the author of crime novels—he was outraged at Thelma Adams' view on the current Huffington Post, alleging that the real furor about this story should be about the young man's deflowering, victimized by this older woman. That is a reductive reading, said Schlink. That small-minded opinion does not recognize there are many kinds of love.
I am not yet over the delicious discomfort of this fine movie.

Let's give Schlink credit for smarts and say he either hasn't read and understood Thelma's comments or is speaking in very bad faith - or maybe he's just got some profit participation in the flick he's worried about.

Thelma's very careful to point out that the story and the themes are not the issue for her. It's the way it's shot and the implicit intent of the film makers in shooting it that way. It's explicit sex, erotically (rather than, say, simply explicatorily) shot, between an adult and someone who's clearly meant to be underage.
The intent is identification and arousal.

It's the sort of things you'd go to the "teen" sites on persiankitty.com to find, for instance. It sure does sell.

I remember the "delicious discomfort" I got watching those "Ilse Koch, She Wolf of the SS" movies when I was much younger. But even then, the folks on screen were adults (even if, at the time, I wasn't - shhh, don't tell).
