Recently nominated for an Oscar for To Leslie, the British actress, also known for her roles in Birdman and Battle of the Sexes, dons a sharp suit, grey wig and husky voice to transform into the iconic wartime editor of British Vogue, Audrey Withers. Heading the magazine from 1940 to 1960, she devoted herself entirely to the war effort, keeping the Vogue offices open during the Blitz, publishing invaluable government advice, encouraging women to work, commissioning boundary-breaking photography and enlisting the help of era-defining talents such as Miller and Cecil Beaton. In Lee, we see her championing Miller’s early work, supporting her decision to go to the front and pushing for her photographs to be printed, even when others found them too distressing. After leaving her position, she was made a dame, published an autobiography, and died in 2001, aged 96.
The dashing, Emmy-winning Englishman, who has impressed audiences in everything from Challengers to La Chimera since his rise to fame as the brooding young Prince Charles on The Crown, plays Antony, the only son of Miller and Penrose. Growing up at the Farleys, where he was surrounded by his parents' illustrious friends, including Picasso, Joan Miró and Man Ray, he developed an interest in photography and later became a documentary filmmaker. When he discovered his mother's work in the attic after her death, he and his wife founded the Lee Miller Archives and he has written several books, from The Home of the Surrealists: Lee Miller, Roland Penrose and their Circle at Farley Farm to The Lives of Lee Miller, the biography that forms the basis for Lee. Now, at age 77, he continues to live and work at Farleys—which has been converted into a stunning museum and gallery—in an effort to honor the memory of his parents, along with his own daughter, Ami Bouhassane.
The British actor hilariously criticized Lee as Cecil Beaton, the revered photographer, painter and costume and set designer who won three Oscars for My Fair Lady and Gigi. Before all that, however, he was a rising star and Vogue staffer, documenting the war with Miller in such dramatic scenes as the 1941 shocker "Fashion Is Inviolable." He went on to photograph royalty and Hollywood icons, was knighted and was the subject of a major retrospective at the National Portrait Gallery before his death in 1980, aged 76.
