Making Of LEE (2024) - Behind The Scenes & Talk With Kate Winslet, Alexander Skarsgård, Andy Samberg

[@amby1989]

Kate should be up for best actress race this year for Lee. She was phenomenal . 😍 I don't know why people are not talking about it.

[@sethd6485]

Have you seen it? I thought it wasn’t out til Friday

[@BenjaminBen-David]

This film tells a story of the horrors of WWII. No one wants to see that. I agree with you this film is beyond belief. Lee Miller captured images are the right person at the right time to capture a nightmare of humanity on film. Kate Winslet's most accomplished role.

Saw Lee two days ago and I'm still in awe! Easily in my top 10 favourite films ever. Everyone should go see this!

[@laureenroberts775]

Kate is phenomenal as Lee. Must be Oscar worthy! This is such an important movie. Everyone needs to see this. It is so powerful!

[@alistairlegge7225]

Kate is a wonderful actor. However, Lee was an amazing model, a fashion model, was painted by Picasso, so an artist’s model, a groundbreaking photographer in her own right, not just Man Ray’s muse and then she became one of the greatest war photographers and correspondents. There are very few women or men who are as phenomenal as Lee Miller. So glad her story is being told. This movie only told a part of her amazing life.

[@LawyerPanda]

More people need to know about this movie. More people need to know more about Lee Miller

[@hayleyanna2625]

This film was fantastic and her performance is extraordinary. I recommend it to all. In fact, I am intending on watching it again this weekend with pals. Kate is superb. What a life Lee Miller lived and how courageous. Her photos were/are important.❤

[@belbrighton6479]

This film was simply outstanding in every way.

[@davel831]

Amazing film. So powerful and Kate Winslet is amazing really need more people to see this great film.

[@cindymaceda2999]

Wish this film could’ve been shown in cinemas rather than only on subscription streaming.

[@ethelnagelberg1654]

Kate is at her best playing in-the-trenches, gritty roles… We’ve lost so many wonderful actors over the years, and really have never recovered the immensity of their collective talent; however, Winslet has glowed her way into this, the twenty-first century…

[@JacintaGib]

I could not agree with you more. There are 2 versions of Hollywood for me. The filter filled one, and then the true artists who care about their roles deeply and have a purpose. Kate defiantly represents the true artist, warts and all.

[@debrasutton954]

This looks amazing and I have to say … way to go Andy Samburg!!!!

[@irenec2863]

Thank you for telling Lee Miller's story. If she were alive today though I think she'd say it was never about me, but the lives of the people whose stories I told.

[@janfisher3303]

Got to go and watch this, really admire Kate Winslet and she's a wonderful actress too ❤

[@KWCardDesign]

I’m crying just from this 12 min video!! Kate is superb at story telling always. But it shows even more so, because this was “her baby”- Although I know I’ll be crying 95% of this movie I want to see it so bad, simply because I actually visited Dachau when I was just 18- I’m 47 now.

[@Decencyisfree]

Me too ❤️‍🩹

[@sarahmellen3426]

I’d been waiting for this film for 9 years since I first heard Kate would be playing her. Lee Miller has been dear to me ever since I stumbled across her and I was so excited that someone was telling her story… then it came out and I never saw an ad, never heard a peep about it. Glad I finally looked it up and found it for rent. Gorgeous film, stunning performance. I wish it would have reached a wider audience but so glad it was made!

[@mamaahu]

Including the smell. No one had ever thought to do this before. Extraordinary job by everyone who worked on this extraordinary film! Impeccable.

[@marvinmartin4692]

The day of my father’s funeral I learned that he had helped to liberate a couple of these camps. His brother said he was never the same again. I must see this story ! In light of the evil that’s rising in the USA we cannot let this happen again!

[@Decencyisfree]

Absolutely. (Bless your father and those like him) I’ve been to the a couple of these camps on a scholarship and while there learned how the dehumanization progression starts slowly… eerily similar to what we are seeing now. When people are hurting often their first reaction is (misplaced) blame onto other groups. We MUST NOT allow this history to be forgotten or it is doomed to be repeated. I’m so grateful they made this story. And pray we all do our part to prevent the process from moving forward.

[@marvinmartin4692]

@@Decencyisfree I wish I had the money to go to Europe and see first hand these places, that possibly my father seen. You are absolutely correct that it’s happening here. A slow march to fascism! I believe it’s coincides with the passing of most veterans from ww2!

[@Decencyisfree]

@@marvinmartin4692 I wish that for you too. (I was fortunate enough to win an essay contest. It was indeed such an impactful experience.) I agree with you on your assessment as does the “Strauss-Howe Generational Theory” that, in short, believes history repeats itself every 80yrs, approximately the length of a human life/wisdom. There is an interesting video about it, “We Are In The Fourth Turning” by Van Neistat here on KZbin that you might find interesting, explaining that we are currently in the ‘Crisis’ of the sequence. (Which I didn’t know until watching it tonight after your comment reminded me of the theory, thank you.) May we all band together ❤️🤍💙 Now is our time.

[@rhysioeren3203]

I saw the film already, and unfortunately this time is not a good time for a war film as it feels we are back to 1938 and everything that happened then is going to repeat. Hope we have better times, but doesn't feel we learned anything from what happened in WWII, since here we are again with the same fear. God bless all of us, and wish you all happy and long lives.

I’m rooting for Andy to get that oscar this is such a 360 in his acting career

[@1midnightfish]

Apparently he was worried that "his face" would "distract" the audience! I think I heard him say that to Seth Meyers the other day. What convinced him is how much he looks like the man whose role he was being cast into.

[@geemo4284]

I have no idea who he the actor is as I’m not from the US, but he was phenomenal in this role

[@1midnightfish]

​@@geemo4284Andy Samberg is known for his comedic roles, and he's a very funny guy - that's why so many people are commenting on his being in a "serious" movie! I haven't seen the film yet, and literally can't wait!

Kate the Great dedicated herself to her roles with such genuine passion and truth of character that she transcends the the screen like no other actor today. She also respects the people she plays with sincerity and believe ability.

[@noam65]

It is an excellent film!

[@kaneclements7761]

The critics have suggested that the devices used to tell the story in the movie are tired and therefore it is somehow lacking. I don't agree. This is a story known to many, including me, yet it is new to others. The structure negotiates a path between the requirements of both parties and those in between. It is a movie where the action doesn't and cannot detract from the the ability of the cast and script to relate the emotions of the people whose stories unfold. It is movie in which there is nowhere to hide for the cast. They are either brilliant or they fall flat. Here they are without exception at the top of their game.

[@angelhead4096]

I really hope this comes out on DVD & Blu ray. So many great films don't these days.

[@plj2084]

I' Resently watched a Documentary on this woman Lee Miller who I never heard of before As She seemed to have immersed her Life into many different directions before her Death at 70 years 1977 ) But the uncanny thing is while I was seeing old pictures of her all through the Documentary' I kept thinking She reminded me of the English Actress Kate Winslet Lol So What A Supprize that Kate who must have seen and Realised the Strong Resemblance between her and Lee decided to make this Great historical movie about this very Unique Woman

[@brendadrew834]

Can't wait to see this fascinating film starring "Kate, the Great" Winslet! My late father fought in WW2 in the European theater from 1943 to 1946 and brought home authentic red Nazi arm bands that I took into elementary school for show and tell in the 1950s and also showed me 5 x 7 black and white photographs of all the dead bodies piled up at the concentration camps after they were liberated. Now I'm wondering if those photos were copies of photos Lee Miller took??

[@JacintaGib]

This movie has not yet come out in Australia, yet I find myself completely captivated by these short videos. Some of the most attractive women in the Hollywood industry are those that let themselves age naturally. Kate Winslet is an incredible example of this because she is playing a role of a woman who captured some of the worst moments in humanity and it is raw, emotional, refreshing, and utterly iconic. It brings us back from the glossy, photo shopping crap that "stars" consistently try to emulate as beauty and perfection, and shows us that life can be hard, brutal, yet still beautiful. And Kate Winslet represents us all as equal, whilst making us feel something by using her incredible talent to make a movie/biopic like this.

[@juliehein9016]

Great Film. Well worth watching Kate deserves a Oscar for this film absolute amazing how she played the part from Lee Muller 🫶

[@SethLarry]

We just got done whiching this picture. Dan what a great move heart warming ,,,, we didn't know anything about Lee at all man or how she was . Kind of sad about this movie , ,but what a great move sisters ,,,,,

[@onefineday0990]

A great British actress

[@ogukuo97]

I liked that she depicted a strong woman in a male dominated industry without going into the cringe woke territory. In fact, it is very well done, and told a good story about a good journalist that brought the cost of war to the American audience through her work. Bravo.

[@rvrschrs64]

It's a bit ironic, but good that she had a good GERMAN Rollieflex camera to take all those terrific pictures.

[@jonathanmurphy3141]

I have admired Lee's work, since my study and work in Photography, Fine Arts Degree, in the 90's (then, switched to teaching). I have the book that Miller's son published of her work, the movie is based on. I have been a fan of Kate W', her 4 films before "Titanic". When I heard she was making this film, with Miller's son approval and archive of her work -I really wanted to see it. I am glad the reheard, recreation of her photographs, and the stark truth of the horror of war and Holocaust -who would have a drink, to numb themselves. I am recommending this film to several friend, and family! Like "Oppenheimer" the story of a civilian involved in the War, and the trauma that follows -needs to be told, along with the soldiers.

[@cindymaceda2999]

I too bought the book from from Antony Penrose when our women’s club visited their family home 20 years ago. I hadn’t heard about Lee Miller until then.

[@elisemiller13]

I don't think I could stomach this. I was as a small child without any understanding...subjected to graphic images, footage & stories of Jews in pre war Germany & in the camps from arrival to stacked mass graves...as a Jewish child. No child should be made to see that. It took a long time before my willingness to watch Schindler's list, but at least his wild, brave story, had a better ending for those on his list. I do admire her and she paid with her sanity. I hope many will learn something valuable. For me, enough already.

[@All_Lives_Matters]

Great movie! Very sad! You'll see Palestine in so many ways. 80 years from now, there'll be movies made about the assassinated journalists

[@noam65]

You never feed people nearly starved to death solid food, as that may kill them. They have to be slowly reintroduced to solid food. The giant bread cart would have been inappropriate, according to an older friend who was in the military units who liberated several camps. That was his testimonial to me of that experience of wanting to get the survivors solid food, but was ordered not to, for the reasons just discussed.

This is a cakewalk after Schindler’s List. See it.

[@mannatuu]

Taking nothing away from the heroic, moral and courageous stance of Lee , it should also be asked ''on whose side would she be today re the Ukraine war and the genocide in Gaza?'' For in the 1930's the Imperialist powers principally the British and Americans had little choice but to oppose fascist Germany , despite the fact that the US had given birth to the fascist regime in the first place via the Great Crash of 1929, and had a plan (only recently revealed) that would have seen the US occupation of Canada, and thus its opposition to its major imperialist competitor which was the British Empire, that would have made it a defacto ally of Germany. Middle class revulsion against Hitler then, has however polarised somewhat . Now ''the moralising class'' predominantly backs the puppet masters of fascism. The Democrats under Biden are the instigators of not only a provocation against the oligarch Putin, but the instigators of genocide in Gaza. In the UK they are now joined by a Labour Government that fully backs the fascist Netanyahu. Both these parties are funded and fully supported by much of the middle class elites. So where do\would the characters and actors in this movie stand today? Today, when not only Europe was devastated along with the holocaust of the Jews, but that the whole world now faces the very real possibility of a nuclear war and human extinction by what would be the consequence of any form of WW3 ... via near certain irreversible climate change . Just a thought.

[@rayprice9819]

There is absolutely no reason whatsoever to ask on whose side would Lee Miller be on today. Today is irrelevant to her story.

[@mannatuu]

​@@rayprice9819 It's not at all. As with any character in history , they are part and parcel of a conversation that transcends time . Why art ,why film , if it is meant to be kept in a straight jacket ? Your sort of political line not only guts it of relevance to the human story, it potentially turns it into so much propaganda. Whether you like it or not 'everything' is circumstance . The terrorist or the freedom fighter ??... who's ''freedom'' and under what conditions ?? What the crisis of global capitalism threw up in the 1930's 10 years on from the crash of 1929 has complete relevance to what the crisis of global capitalism is throwing up now in 2024, 16 years on from the crash of 2008. History and the patterns of its epochs are once again repeating themselves with a vengeance . This time round ''democracy'' once again gives birth to fascism, in which history's heroes and victims then, are now paradoxically today... its perpetrators. Perhaps you should get my post deleted if it offends you? As in todays equivalent of ''burning of the books'' Have a nice day.

[@brandonprince3297]

So, are you going to Gaza or Ukraine with a camera?

[@mannatuu]

@@brandonprince3297 Since when was that a solution to anything?? Clearly the logic of my argument disturbs you . Such a comment effectively reinforces my argument as to the political reactionary character of the middle classes and how completely redundant they are as to offering the future (ie their children ) a 'way out' that doesn't repeat the crimes and barbarities of the past .

[@squatch545]

I'd like to think Lee Miller would go the front lines of Ukraine and Gaza.
