And How You Can Win Tickets To See LEE
THIS is the movie we’ve been waiting to see, about top fashion model-turned war photographer and finally it has been released! Lee opens in the South of France 1938, where Lee Miller, a former model and now determined photographer, vacations with her artistic friends.
With war looming, she follows her love, art dealer Roland Penrose, to London, where she struggles against the restrictions on female photographers at British Vogue. She eventually secures her own US War Accreditation and heads to Europe alone.
Partnering with fellow photographer David E. Scherman, Lee captures pivotal moments of WWII, including the liberation of Paris and the horrors of the concentration camps.
Directed by Ellen Kuras and written by Liz Hannah, John Collee, and Marion Hume, LEE showcases the resilience of women in a male-dominated field, featuring standout performances from Oscar winner Kate Winslet, Marion Cotillard, Andrea Riseborough, Andy Samberg, and Alexander Skarsgård.
Only in Cinemas October 24.
Now, if we told you any more about the story or the plot, we’d undoubtedly spoil it for you. Suffice to say, it takes a lot of grit and determination from being a highly sought after model to a war photographer. Being the amongst the first to witness and the first photographer to document the horrors of Buchenwald and Dachau concentration camps, her story is incredible and moving. Lee Miller, photographer and teller of women’s stories that no-one had asked for, was a renegade who achieved so much because she disobeyed orders!
