LEE (R)

1 hour, 57 minutes

Lee, the directorial feature from award-winning Cinematographer Ellen Kuras, portrays a pivotal decade in the life of American war correspondent and photographer, Lee Miller (Kate Winslet). Miller’s singular talent and unbridled tenacity resulted in some of the 20th century’s most indelible images of war, including an iconic photo of Miller herself, posing defiantly in Hitler’s private bathtub. Miller had a profound understanding and empathy for women and the voiceless victims of war. Her images display both the fragility and ferocity of the human experience. Above all, the film shows how Miller lived her life at full-throttle in pursuit of truth, for which she paid a huge personal price, forcing her to confront a traumatic and deeply buried secret from her childhood.

Based on Antony Penrose’s biography of his mother, “The Lives of Lee Miller,” Lee is a biopic of an artist whose true importance, unfortunately, became apparent only many years after her death.

Great biopics about great people demand great writing and great centerpiece performances. The splendid film Lee, a riveting, honorable and comprehensive chronicle about the extraordinary life, work and importance of the impactful, world-famous photojournalist Lee Miller, with a sensational focus on the truth by Oscar winner Kate Winslet in the starring role, gets both. Everything in this exemplary picture spells the kind of quality I haven’t seen on the screen since Oppenheimer.”
- Rex Reed, Observer

A resoundingly compelling docudrama of a photographer who captured some of the most impactful and harrowing images of the worst war on record, and there is no actor better suited to recapture her presence than Kate Winslet.
