Magnolia at the Modern: Lee

“Kate Winslet deploys impressive range as a war photographer in a standard biopic. The star transforms into fearless vogue photographer Elizabeth “Lee” Miller, who captured extraordinary images from the World War II frontlines, in a respectable film from Ellen Kuras.” —Carlos Aguilar, Variety

Lee tells the story of American photographer Lee Miller (Winslet). Determined to document the truth of the Nazi regime despite the many challenges she faced as a female correspondent, Lee captured some of the most important images of World War II–though they came at an enormous personal price. Directed by Ellen Kuras, the impressive cast includes Alexander Skarsgård, Andy Samberg, Andrea Riseborough, and Marion Cotillard.
