Zack Sharf Digital News Director Kate Winslet debuted her latest movie, “Lee,” to instant Oscar buzz at the Toronto International Film Festival. The Oscar winner produced the film and stars as the famed World War II photographer and journalist Lee Miller. In a new Vogue cover story, Winslet details the years-long journey it took to get a movie made about Miller.
She said many male executives would patronize her as she was trying to get the necessary funding together to make “Lee.” “The men who think you want and need their help are unbelievably outraging,” Winslet said. “I’ve even had a director say to me: ‘Listen, you do my film and I’ll get your little ‘Lee’ funded…’ Little! Or we’d have potential male investors saying things like: ‘Tell me, why am I supposed to like this woman?'” The revelation led to a question about whether or not the #MeToo movement had created real change in Hollywood, to which Winslet enthusiastically answered yes. “Oh, my God! This is the best part,” Winslet said.
“Young actresses now — fuck me — they are unafraid. It makes me so proud. And I think, Yes, all the shit flinging, all the struggle, all the using my voice for years, often being finger-pointed at and laughed at — I don’t give a shit! It was all bloody worth it.
Because the culture is changing in the way that I couldn’t in my wildest dreams have imagined in my 20s.” On the first day of filming “Lee” in the French port of Saint-Malo, Winslet slipped while running and injured her back. “I had three massive hematomas on my spine, huge,” the actor said. “I could barely stand up.” But she refused to let the production get delayed, even paying out of pocket the cast and crew’s wages for two weeks when financing hit a speed bump.
