its been a good week for watching DVDs.
This one has Kate Winslet and Ralph Fiennes in it and an actor playing Fiennes' character as a young man.
Set in Germany it is about boyhood dreams, love, sex, truth and reconciliation with the thread of the effects of the Nazi concentration camps as central to the outcome.
Wnslet is stunning.
There ain't no CGI. There ain't no fight scenes. There IS a compelling story about not being able to escape your past and the overwhelming effects of loss.
So if you are into a good story and excellent acting, this is worth a watch.
