Kate Winslet has spoken about her bravery in showing her naked body in her latest film. The actress, who famously stripped in the movie ‘Titanic’, has opened up about a topless scene in her upcoming drama ‘Lee’. The film tells the story of photographer Lee Miller during World War Two. In the scene, Winslet’s character is seen on a beach with her future husband and other characters. Speaking to Vogue, Winslet said she believes in herself and doesn’t waste energy on criticizing her physical self.
She said, “I had to be really brave about letting my body be its softest version and not hiding from that”. She also revealed that people on set would suggest she sit up more, but she refused to change her appearance. Speaking about the challenges of making the film, Winslet also discussed the belittling behavior she experienced from men in the industry. She said certain men thought she needed their help and would make derogatory comments. However, she remained determined to make the film.
Vogue’s October 2023 issue, featuring the interview with Winslet, will be available from September 19th.
