About the event
Oscar winner Kate Winslet stars in this fascinating portrait of the great American war correspondent Elizabeth "Lee" Miller, whose singular talent and ferocious tenacity gave us some of the 20th century’s most indelible images. After a career as a fashion model and muse to Man Ray, Lee moved to Paris to study photography just as WW2 broke out. As a middle-aged woman, she refused to simply be remembered as a model and muse so she defied social expectations and travelled Europe, reporting from the frontline and became an acclaimed war correspondent for Vogue magazine during World War II. Her work changed war photography forever, but Lee paid a huge personal price for the stories she fought so hard to tell.
