If the name Lee Miller sounds familiar, it may be because you’re familiar with the history of war journalism, or it could be because she’s discussed throughout Alex Garland’s Civil War as one of the characters’ war journalism idols. While it’s nice to see one of the most talented war photographers in history get her roses, the biopic Lee offers little outside of strong performances and interesting imagery to make it stand out in the tired biopic genre.
Lee Review
The film follows the story of Lee Miller, from her days as a fashion model to becoming one of the most iconic war correspondents of all time as a photographer for Vogue magazine during WWII. Although Miller’s life and career were anything but ordinary, this biopic’s writers seem so staunchly committed to following the conventions and formula of the genre that it is somewhat unconvincing.

The name Lee Miller may not be familiar but you have most likely seen her photos, some of the first and most iconic of Nazi concentration camps, taken immediately after the defeat of Nazi Germany. The photos show concentration camp survivors and the dead, which proved that the wartime rumors of the Holocaust were true. Lee Miller’s shocking, heartbreaking photos were published in an article titled “Believe It” in American Vogue, dispelling doubts about what had happened in Germany.
That a fashion magazine like Vogue would be the one that published them seems highly unlikely, yet so was the career and life of Lee Miller. Directed by acclaimed cinematographer Ellen Kura, making her feature film directorial debut, the stirring, inspirational drama Lee takes audiences from...

Plot: The story of American photographer Lee Miller, a fashion model who became an acclaimed war correspondent for Vogue magazine during World War II.
Review: Operating from the belief that Kate Winslet cannot deliver a bad performance, I went into Lee expecting the acclaimed actress to be excellent. As a surprise to no one, Winslet is astoundingly good in a passion project she has shepherded for almost a decade. At one point, Winslet financed cast salaries out of her own pocket as well as acted with a brutal back injury sustained during filming. While those trials have added to the aura exuded by Lee Miller over the course of the film, Lee is nevertheless a formulaic biopic kept afloat by a stellar cast that includes Alexander Skarsgard, Andy Samberg, Marion Cotillard, Andrea Riseborough, and more. The story still packs an emotional punch with striking historical context from World War II...

Kate Winslet may have ruled the seas in Titanic, but there was one film where she nearly jumped ship out of sheer intimidation. Enter her $134 million epic, where the A-list cast had Winslet questioning her own star power. Surrounded by Hollywood heavyweights, the Oscar-winning actress couldn’t shake the feeling that the casting directors had made a colossal mistake.

With every scene, she waited for someone to pull her aside and admit the mix-up. Spoiler alert: they didn’t. And thank goodness for that! Winslet may have felt like an outsider, but her performance proved she had every right to be there, shining just as brightly as her star-studded co-stars, even if her inner doubt told a different story.

Belgian actor Matthias Schoenaerts has nabbed the plum villain role in Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, which Craig Gillespie is directing for DC Studios.
House of the Dragon star Milly Alcock is toplining the superhero feature as Kara Zor-El, the cousin of Superman.
The feature is inspired by the Tom King and Bilquis Evely comic and will depart from the earnest take on the character audiences may know from the CW Supergirl series. The story hews closer to a grand science-fiction adventure than standard superhero fare as the comic told of a young alien girl who seeks Supergirl’s help in exacting revenge for the killing of her family.
The villain in the comic was Krem of the Yellow Hills, the man who kills the girl’s father. Supergirl is drawn into the conflict when he injured everyone’s favorite superpet, Krypto.

What’s the secret sauce to truly embodying a character on screen? Is it a dash of authenticity and a pinch of body positivity? Kate Winslet, our beloved Academy Award-winning chameleon, has tossed caution to the wind as she prepares to portray the legendary photojournalist Lee Miller in the upcoming biopic Lee, directed by Ellen Kuras.

Winslet didn’t just step into Miller’s shoes; she practically did a waltz in them. But as she geared up for her performance, she encountered some less-than-stellar advice on set. A crew member suggested she suck in her stomach to conceal her “belly rolls” during a topless scene.

The 2009 film "Nine" — not to be confused with the 2009 film "9" — was an Oscar darling in the most frustrating possible way. It was nominated for four Oscars, including Best Supporting Actress (Penélope Cruz), Best Art Direction, Best Costumes, and Best Original Song. That was just enough nominations for mad Oscar completists to have to see "Nine," a movie that, many agreed, looked dull and baffling. The critics seemed to think so, anyway, as "Nine" only has a 39% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It's the lowest approval rating of any film to star Daniel Day-Lewis.
"Nine" requires some explanation. Firstly, the film was based on a Broadway musical that debuted in 1982. The original production starred Raul Julia, playing a character that was very similar to, but legally distinct from, real-life Italian master Federico Fellini. The character, named Guido Contini, found both his marriage and his creative spirit flagging in the face of a midlife crisis.

Before taking on a big screen portrayal of the photographer, Kate Winslet saw herself in Lee Miller‘s work.
The Academy Award winner recently opened up about proudly showcasing the “softest physical version” of herself to portray the renowned photojournalist in the upcoming Ellen Kuras-helmed biopic Lee, premiering Sept. 27 in theaters.
After previously revealing that a crew member on the set advised her to suck in her stomach to hide her “belly rolls” during a topless scene, Winslet recalled her reaction. “You think I’m not aware you can see that? I just went, ‘I’m all good,'” she told Time.
She said of the praise around the “bravery” of her response, “That’s not f—ing brave. I’m not an ex-postmaster fighting for justice, I’m not in the Ukraine. I’m doing a job that matters to me.”

Brad Pitt and George Clooney are definitely Hollywood heartthrobs, but while their work is all glam and glory, their personal lives tell a different story — especially for Pitt. Since the ’90s, when he first shot to fame, he’s had two big relationships that people still can’t stop talking about.
Brad Pitt in Once Upon a Time in… Hollywood (Sony Pictures)
Pitt and Angelina Jolie were once seen as the ultimate couple, even with the shadow of Jennifer Aniston over them. Their split was a hot topic for years, and to maybe steer clear of more love drama, it looks like the actor is now taking relationship cues from Clooney.

This article contains spoilers for "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice."
This week marked the return not only of Michael Keaton into the eponymous role of Beetlejuice in the long-awaited sequel "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" (our review here), but the return of Tim Burton to the big screen. Though it's only been five-plus years since his last feature film — the unmemorable and unnecessary "Dumbo" remake for Walt Disney Pictures — it feels like it's been a lot longer since Burton had room to flex his unique visual muscles and deliver a distinctive film full of flair. But while Burton's movies are perhaps best known for their flights of fancy and dark whimsy, his filmography is also replete with memorable and rightfully beloved performances from some excellent actors, including Keaton. With "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" about to dominate at the box office and boasting an impressive ensemble including some new actors, let's rank the 11 best performances in Tim Burton's films.

Expect Venice Film Festival juror James Gray — the filmmaker behind epic American panoramas like “The Immigrant” and “Armaggedon Time” — to respond to Brady Corbet’s staggering ambition “The Brutalist.” The VistaVision-shot, 215-minute portrait of a Jewish-born Hungarian architect (played by Adrien Brody) wowed crowds at its Sala Grande premiere Sunday night — and at press and industry screenings the day before that sent attendees into the night chattering even as early as the film’s 15-minute intermission, which includes a countdown to get you back in your seats.
Brody stars as László Tóth, a fictional architect so fully realizes that you’d be forgiven for thinking this is an arthouse biopic rather than an original conception from the “Vox Lux” director, screenwriting with his partner Mona Fastvold, who brought “The World to Come” to the Lido in 2020.

On Thursday afternoon, the two stars, along with their director, met members of the press to discuss the movie, which is set in 1792 when the two main characters and their children were arrested and imprisoned in a chateau in Paris, awaiting their trial.

The next season of Apple TV+’s The Morning Show will likely premiere long after the 2024 presidential election has ended, and that democratic process only scratches the surface of what real-life events the drama series could respond to with the time it has in production before release.
The Morning Show received an early renewal for a fourth season before Season 3 even premiered. At the time of this announcement, a fifth season was also in consideration.
Read on for everything we know about The Morning Show Season 4 so far.
Has The Morning Show Season 4 started production yet?

Tom Cruise and Christopher McQuarrie have a good thing going, and the pair are reportedly set to team up once again for a World War II movie called Broadsword. I don’t think I need to hear more; one ticket, please!
Broadsword is said to tell the story of “an S.O.E. operation and a marine captain who crashes in France and becomes the sole survivor. Against all odds, he must complete his mission amidst the chaos of war.” World of Reel adds that Henry Cavill is set to star alongside Cruise, with Marion Cotillard eyed to play the female lead. Just keeps getting better and better. The outlet adds that the film is looking at shooting in the summer of 2025 and will likely be sandwiched between Cruise’s upcoming film with Alejandro González Iñárritu and Joseph Kosinski’s Top Gun 3.

Some of the signs that the extras around Aniston were carrying read “Extinction Revolt,” “Fuel Kills,” and “Climate Emergency.”
One of the photos also showed Aniston walking alongside another woman dressed identically to her, which was presumably her body double.

Tom Cruise is joined by two huge talents in World War II drama Broadsword, which will see him reunite with two Mission: Impossible alumni.
Tom Cruise’s slate for the next couple of years looks to have finally taken shape. The star’s post-Mission: Impossible career has been in state of flux for months as projects have appeared and in one case, disappeared. However, the announcement of Broadsword – a film that will reunite him with regular Mission: Impossible director, Christopher McQuarrie – looks to have cleared things up.
Broadsword is a WWII-set film that, per World Of Reel, ‘will tell the story of an S.O.E. operation and a marine captain who crashes in France and becomes the sole survivor. Against all odds, he must complete his mission amidst the chaos of war.’
Cruise will be joined in the film by Henry Cavill (another Mission: Impossible collaborator) and Marion Cotillard.

Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio have long been major fan favorites, especially as lovers onscreen. This is because of the outstanding chemistry the duo has successfully displayed all along, resulting in some of the most critically acclaimed masterpieces of all time. However, the pair didn’t exactly say yes to starring opposite each other the entire time.

Well, Winslet for one most certainly didn’t, and ended up turning down one too many roles that asked her to be the onscreen lover of DiCaprio. The same was the case for Inception as well, which is, unarguably, one of DiCaprio’s highest-grossing movies. As it turns out, the actress was asked to play the actor’s lover once again, but her response was a big no.

2024 has been some year for the importance of photojournalists being writ large both on screen and in the news. Earlier this year, Alex Garland's Civil War envisioned its cautionary tale of an imagined new American Civil War literally through the lens of war photographers Lee Smith (Kirsten Dunst) and Jessie Cullen (Cailee Spaeny). Just this past weekend, a turning point in the States' Presidential race was captured in an extraordinary image of a bloody-eared Donald Trump. Now, in Cinematographer Ellen Kuras' feature directorial debut Lee, Oscar winner Kate Winslet is set to tell the story of a decade in the life of iconic American war photographer and WWII correspondent Lee Miller.

Kate Winslet is embodying the iconic American war correspondent and photographer Lee Miller for an eponymous biopic.
Winslet leads “Lee,” the directorial feature debut from award-winning cinematographer Ellen Kuras. The film centers on a decade in the life of Lee Miller, who was formerly a model and muse for male artists before traveling to Europe to report from the frontline during WWII. Lee infamously posed in Hitler’s private bathtub while abroad and used her Rolleiflex camera to “give a voice to the voiceless,” the film teases.
Its logline reads: What she captured on film in Dachau and throughout Europe was shocking and horrific. Her photographs of the war, its victims and its consequences remain among the most significant and historically important of the Second World War. She changed war photography forever, but Lee Miller paid an enormous personal price for what she witnessed and the stories she fought to tell.
