The first photograph of Kate Winslet starring in the Australian film production “The Dressmaker” has been released. Based on a 2000 Australian book of the same name, written by Rosalie Ham, “The Dressmaker” is set in a fictional Australian town in the 1950s. Winslet plays the story’s protagonist Tilly Dunnage, who returns to the town and exacts revenge on figures from her troubled past.
Winslet joined by an ensemble cast of prominent Australian actors, including Judy Davis, Liam Hemsworth and Hugo Weaving, for the eight-week film shoot, which has now concluded. The film is set for release in Australian cinemas on October 1, 2015.
This first image hints at cinematography that takes full advantage of the rich colours and dramatic landscapes of rural Victoria.
