You have got 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 death camps and who fought for her right to record history as she saw it, and as a woman. Winslet campaigned for years and was consistently turned down but she did finally achieve her aim, and the resulting film is a pretty good, sometimes very 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 millers career in the early stages of the war, later, as she gets more involved, it's a much better film, often impressive and insightful and even powerful.
