Stephen Daldry’s first two feature films earned him best director Academy Award nominations and his latest offering, the Holocaust-haunted “The Reader,” debuts this week with a dose of outsider Oscar buzz.
“The Reader,” based on Bernhard Schlink’s novel of the same name, tells the tale of a 15-year-old German boy who becomes involved in an affair with a woman twice his age who is hiding a dark secret — her involvement in the Holocaust.
