"Jewish human rights organisations have claimed that Kate Winslet should not be awarded a best actress Oscar for The Reader. Holocaust education groups have denounced the film as &amp;quot;the worst Holocaust film ever made&amp;quot; and a &amp;quot;repellent form of revisionism&amp;quot;, claiming that it portrays female prison camp guard Hanna Schmitz too sympathetically. &amp;quot;Essentially it takes a woman who serves in, is responsible for, is complicit in, you pick the words, in the deaths of at least 300 Jews - and her big secret shame is that she&amp;#039;s illiterate,&amp;quot; said Mark Weitzman, head of The Simon Wiesenthal Centre. Trudy Gold, chief executive of the London Jewish Cultural Centre, told Jewish News: &amp;quot;This is just one of a spate of films portraying sympathetic Nazis. This woman acted monstrously, there\u2019s no question about that.  &amp;quot;The question is have we gotten to the point where we have to make heroines out of Nazis? I do find it a bit sick.&amp;quot; Winslet has already won a Bafta and Golden Globe for her role in the movie. The 81st annual Academy Awards take place on Sunday.
