The Eyes of Tammy Faye

The actor plays the corrupt Bakker, who proclaims initially, asserting religious justification for riches. He and Tammy Faye begin capitalizing on the nation's spiritual convictions. It's a spectacle of poor styling, bad makeup and bad faith, though Chastain achieves to show the character with compassion. Tuesday 14 October, late night, Film4
