The film portrays a pivotal decade in the life of American war correspondent and photographer, Lee Miller (Kate Winslet). Her 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. Alexander Skarsgård portrays her husband Roland Penrose, while Andy Samberg plays her trusty partner in the field (and sometimes in the bedroom), David E. Scherman, a war correspondent for Life Magazine.
Winslet shines in this biopic with a superbly powerful performance. She remains one of our most treasured actors and she brings a fierceness to this role.
