I watched the movie version of The Reader this morning. I had read the novel some years ago, but I don't remember it having bummed me out the way the movie has. The message of the film seems to be this:
Love is futile. Cruelty is inevitable. Atonement is impossible.
But only for Germans, one supposes...

Love happen. Cruelty happens. Atonement is an illusion.
Then love and cruelty are events beyond the scope of human will. If atonement is an illusion, likewise is will.
