Lee Miller: [Hands a knife to the girl she just saved from rape] Cut it out next time. credits have some "what happened" explanations; and some of Lee’s original photographs, often along with those recreated for the film.. Kate Winslet gives quite an effective performance here as the eponymous photographer, who originally arrived in London to be with husband Roland Penrose (Alexander Skarsgård) and to work for the formidable Audrey Withers (Andrea Riseborough) in “Vogue”; magazine as a fashion photographer.
Her story is relayed from the comfort of her 1960s British home to a man we assume is just a journalist
With the rise of the Nazis across continental Europe seemingly unstoppable, Penrose spends more time on the war effort, becoming increasingly determined to prove that she is just as capable as her male counterparts.
