I did not know much about Lee Miller. So I didn't understand why her life justified a film 80 years after the events on screen. My interest in seeing this was instead driven by the casting of Kate Winslet, an actress who never fails to impress. And Kate Winslet is perfect for this role. She has the acting skills to dominate every scene. Yet it is the life of Lee Miller that dominates my experience of the film. Of course this is also a testament to Kate Winslet, who never let's her star quality obscure the character she is portraying. Lee Miller's grit and determination must have been incredible for her to have overcome the many obstacles to doing what she did. As a result she left us with an invaluable testimony as to the inhumanity of the holocaust, an event that is denied by some. All of which gives us a powerful story. To that is added the moving depiction of the relationship with her son. Lee Miller's story certainly justifies the telling.

Fascinating viewing. 'Lee' is very well made and expertly acted. As others have noted, it's quite the thing that fellow 2024 flick 'Civil War' has a character inspired by Lee Miller, then this comes along with a plot directly about the incredible photojournalist. Kate Winslet portrays Miller supremely, not that that would ever be in doubt; she is excellent at every single moment of this near two hour film. About time this biopic was produced, it is one that does get dark but it's undoubtedly an important story to tell. /// Lee is a 2023 British biographical drama film directed by Ellen Kuras.

Took a chance on 2 movies i knew next to nothing about today. "Strange darling" was fantastic and original, and then i saw "Lee." Which has another strong lead performance, and is a good historical movie. But doesn't really bring anything new. Its really Kate Winslets show here, and she's good. Particularly toward the end of the movie. The story is also good. Building up to the bigger point of the movie, after a first half that does have some filler in there. There is just a few questionable attempts to spice it all up a bit, as its a straightforward story. The romance isn't the story here, so you might be waiting to get to the parts more focused on the main ww2 plot. Overall, its a good movie. It just doesn't really have anything in it that gives it a boost to greatness.

It's a partial biopic of photojournalist Lee Miller (Kate Winslet) set in 1977 with flashbacks to 1938-1945. The film frames its story as an interview of Miller by a young man (Josh O'Connor) in 1977. Sequential flashbacks to Miller's life begin in 1938 and then follow. Miller is a former American model who has taken up photography as an artistic form and hangs out with an artsy crowd in France, where she has lived for a time. Among her friends are Jean (Patrick Mille) and Solange d'Ayen. She meets Roland Penrose (Alexander Skarsgard), a Quaker artist and poet in Great Britain. He is also part of her artistic community and they begin a relationship. Miller moves to London, where she secures a job with the British Vogue magazine edited by Audrey Withers (Andrea Riseborough). After World War II begins, Miller finds her way to the front lines as a war photojournalist for Vogue. "Lee" depicts some of her dramatic experiences, which resulted in memorable photographs from battles, the capture of Berlin, and the death camps, often together with a Life magazine photographer, David Scherman (Andy Samberg). Miller's personality throughout is hard-driven and sometimes impulsive as she copes through chain-smoking and alcohol consumption. At the film's end, we learn more about her motivation. "Lee" is too one-dimensional, though Kate Winslet's strong performance reflects a complex and troubled personality. There are too many characters with shallow development, leaving Winslet on her own. The lack of context also detracts, as her past is vaguely referenced (she was married to an unmentioned man throughout the war), and we learn nothing of her life after the war (she did marry Roland). Thus, "Lee's" limitations derive from how an array of screenwriters made the adaptations from the 1985 biography.

I was looking forward to this film but, unfortunately, feel let down by how patchy the plot is. The film starts with Lee Miller (Kate Winslet) living an uninhibited artist's life in France and proceeds to follow her life as she he pushes her way into working at French Vogue as a photographer, then a war correspondent who goes to the front lines of WWII. It's an interesting biopic but where it falls short is helping the audience connect with the main character. A bit of this is finally achieved almost at the very end of the film when Lee makes a small but significant confession to a colleague but, at that point, it's too late in the game. The problem is not with the acting but certainly with the writing and some of the (aging) makeup used throughout the film. Overall, the film isn't all it had the promise to be and, I'm sad to say, it won't be a film one will remember amongst the many biopics out there. The good news? Learning a bit about Lee Miller, who seemed determined to live a full and free life even if, at times, at the expense of those around her.

I've seen a few review that seem quite dismissive about the scope and importance of Lee. But if you know about the limited freedom of women during this time period you will totally appreciate the audacity and productivity delivered here. Lee was spurned on by personal trauma to do good with her hard fought freedom to operate in a man's world. Lee has all the period clothing and historical accuracy which is no small feat, while showing the sheer determination it took to achieve access to the final Nazi front of WW2. People back home in the US didn't believe exactly the horrors and certainly not the numbers of the Holocaust. It was the undeniable courageous journey by Lee which brought back the unmistakeable proof and witness of an evil place in history Knowing that one can't unsee certain such things in person gives one empathy for the cost of doing photo journalism. Many get martyred while doing their work when jailed or taken hostage in authoritarian regimes. But in this case, to have survived seems as permanently affecting a way to finish such an important task.

This was "based on a true story"...which means screenwriters had the ability to steer the "message." Having read about Lee Miller, I anticipated a more inspiring, heroic presentation of what she did to expose the horrors of the death camps. We don't even learn her photos were finally published (in the American Vogue) until the Afterward of the movie. It seems the screenwriters wanted to focus on her anguish (apparently Lee suffered from PTSD post war.) Thus the material they gave the excellent Kate Winslet just came across to me as "mild", thus disappointing. The movie conveys the feel of the era pretty well, so that is not a problem.
