Lee (2024) S: Winslet, Skarsgård, O'Connor, Cotillard, Samberg
In Theaters September 27
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.

I recently watched it on VOD. Its pretty good. Its slow in a few parts here and there, but really captures the war around her pretty well.

If you wanted to see Alexander Skargard brush paint on Winslet's tits you get your wish.
I thought it was good and the cast was loaded with stars witbh Skarsgard, Andrea Riseborough, and Marion Cottilard who I have not seen in awhile and Andy Samberg in a rare dramatic role.
Hope he does more drama.
I can't see how Winslet will not get a Oscar nomination for this.

Interesting that the RT score for critics is only at 66% but audiences seem to love it as it in the 90% for them.

Lame title but good film. I admit part of my interest was that I only recently learned of the person when she was mentioned in Civil War.
