《朗读者》（英語：The Reader，香港译《讀愛》，台湾译《為愛朗讀》）是一部2008年斯蒂芬·达尔德里導演的劇情片，由David Hare改编自1995年本哈德·施林克所創作的小說《讀者》。雷夫·范恩斯和凱特·溫絲蕾以及年輕演員大卫·克劳斯出演主角。這是製片人安东尼·明格拉和薛尼·波勒的最後一套製作的電影，因為兩人在電影上映前已逝世。2007年9月電影於德國開始製作，並於2008年12月10日首次在部分地區上映。 故事講述一名於1950年代的德國少年米夏埃尔·伯格（Michael Berg）和一名中年女子漢娜·施密茨（Hanna Schmitz）展開一段忘年戀，但漢娜不久不告而別。米夏埃尔後來成為年輕律师，再度見到漢娜時，她由於在戰爭後期中擔任一個集中營警衛時的行為成為一名因戰爭犯罪受審的被告。米夏埃尔知道漢娜一直有一個她深信比她以往納粹時代更糟的秘密，這個秘密足以推翻对她的指控。但米夏埃尔一时的犹豫铸就了两人终身的遗憾。 溫絲蕾获得金球獎最佳女配角、英国电影学院奖最佳女主角和奧斯卡最佳女主角等多个奖项。
