The film is a biopic of Lee Miller, considered one of the first people who brought the world’s attention to the atrocities committed in the Nazi concentration camps, through her now-iconic photographs. Ellen Kuras, who was the cinematographer on Kate’s 2004 film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, is directing the film. — TMS
