Upcoming Kate Winslet movies
Okay I warned you. I am a Kate Winslet fanatic.
I just wanted to alert other Kate Winslet fans to the two exciting (and probably oscar-worthy) movies that Kate has coming out this year.
#24/36 - The Reader
I saw this film in theaters a few weeks ago and I was the youngest person in the audience by about 20 years.
When a young boy, Michael Berg (David Kross), gets sick on his way home from school, a woman, Hannah Schmitz (Kate Winslet), helps him get home. When he goes back to thank her, they discover a tension there that manifests into an illicit affair.
Great article on Kate Winslet!

Two years ago, at 31, Kate Winslet became the youngest actress ever to earn five Oscar nominations. This go-round, either of her two new movies—Revolutionary Road, which re-unites her with Leonardo DiCaprio, or The Reader—could put a statue in her hands. Winslet talks about having been a fat girl, getting checked out by the moms at her kids’ school, and going one-on-one with DiCaprio for her husband, director Sam Mendes.

Bought this book on Friday while going to a weekend trip and I finished it last night. I saw this movie a few months ago and to be honest, I didn't quite like it. Ok I hated April, Kate Winslet's character.SAG Awards Winners List 2009
