Kate Winslet wearing a knit cap as Lee Miller in Lee
Summary Kate Winslet rejected unwanted advice about her body while filming her new World War II drama, Lee. Directed by Ellen Kuras in her feature debut, based on a 1985 biography, the upcoming film follows the true story of Lee Miller, a fashion model and photographer who became a correspondent to chronicle the events of World War II for Vogue magazine.
There's a bit where Lee's sitting on a bench in a bikini... And one of the crew came up between takes and said: "You might want to sit up straighter." So you can’t see my belly rolls? Not on your life! It was deliberate, you know?" The opposite. I take pride in it because it is my life on my face, and that matters. It wouldn’t occur to me to cover that up. I think people know better than to say, "You might wanna do something about those wrinkles.
For instance, in her 2006 film Little Children, Winslet plays an unhappy housewife who has an affair with her married neighbor. Having recently given birth to two children, Winslet was nervous about filming the sex scenes, so she decided to embrace them as an opportunity to present a positive image for women with, in her words, "imperfect bodies.
