The closing credits have something “what happened to”; explanations; and some of Lee’s original photographs, often alongside those that were recreated for the film
You have to admire Kate Winslet for her determination to make a film about Lee Miller, the pioneering photographer who was one of the first to see the Nazi camps and who fought for her right to record history as she saw it she and as a woman. Winslet campaigned for years and was constantly turned down, but she finally achieved her goal, and the resulting film is pretty good, sometimes really good.
Miller is someone worth commemorating, and this is a fine tribute
Winslet as Lee Miller is excellent, and although initially the film meanders through the miller’s career in the early stages of the war, later, as he becomes more involved, it is a much better film, often impressive and insightful and even powerful.
