The biopic Lee, about fashion legend and war photographer Lee Miller, has been directed by renowned cinematographer Alan Kulas. Lee Miller is played by Titanic actress Kate Winslet. Filming is expected to begin next spring.
Adapted from the biography book "The Lives of Lee Miller" by Miller's son Anthony Penrose, Miller's life is so legendary that in the 1920s she met the publishing tycoon Conte Nass, becoming a model, cover girl and fashion darling of Vogue, and her fashion photography circle friends included Picasso, Juan Miró, Paul Ellúja. After the outbreak of World War II, Miller went to the front as a war photographer and journalist to expose the Nazi torture of refugees to the public, covering events such as the bombing of London and the liberation of Paris. She continued to work as a fashion photographer after World War II, and Miller's work has a strong surrealist style. The film will focus on Miller's life during and after World War II.
Playing the role of a fashion industry person, before Kate, Meryl Streep challenged the role of fashion witch in "The Queen Of Prada", playing a fashion magazine editor with considerable fashion taste, harsh on the fashion team and human touch. It is difficult for the audience to imagine that this is the actor who played Francesca in "The Dream of the Covered Bridge". I wonder if there is pressure on Winslet to challenge similar roles this time? I believe that she will be full of confidence after winning the Oscar.
British actress Kate Winslet was recognized by director Ang Lee in 1996 for "Sense and Sensibility" and was nominated for an Academy Award for the first time. But what really made her famous was the second year of starring in "Titanic", which received 14 Oscar nominations and 11 awards.
After Becoming famous, Winslet pushed out films such as "Anna and the King" that could shine in Hollywood, and challenged different types of niche films such as "North African Lover" to focus on polishing his acting skills. In 2009, she won several Academy Awards and Golden Globe Awards for Best Actress with her superb acting skills in "Life and Death Reading".
Lee isn't the first time Winslet has worked with Alan Kulas, who is the cinematographer for Warm And Warm With Light, and Winslet is the show's lead actor. The film bears witness to a leap in her acting skills. It is reported that in "Lee", Winslet not only starred, but also served as a film producer.
