She did not play a pedophile. The “kid” in the film was above the age of consent. I also don’t have a problem with the fact that it portrayed a nazi sympathetically because it showed how people can be sucked into such stupidity by ideology and following charismatic leaders. See current events.
On the other hand, I don’t know if Winslett deserved a win here. She was very good. She is as good as they said.
I agree with Bill WIllingham, though. Brave and courageous are not words actors should ever be called again. That’s laughable. I don’t know about you, but you can find a lot of people willing to debase themselves for the money Hollywood is paying. In fact, many often do.
