The Reader with Bernhard Schlink

The Reader was one of the most anticipated film releases of 2009, and this adaptation of Bernhard Schlink’s classic novel surprised many critics for successfully carrying the spirit of the novel. Hear from the author himself as he comments on this version of his text and how the pre-occupations of the novel – the roles of memory, guilt, and the law in understanding the Holocaust – made their way into the film.
