The Eyes of Tammy Faye
The Eyes of Tammy Faye is an intimate look at the extraordinary rise, fall and redemption of televangelist Tammy Faye Bakker. In the 1970s and 80s, Tammy Faye and her husband, Jim Bakker, rose from humble beginnings to create the world’s largest religious broadcasting network and theme park, and were revered for their message of love, acceptance and prosperity. Tammy Faye was legendary for her indelible eyelashes, her idiosyncratic singing, and her eagerness to embrace people from all walks of life. However, it wasn’t long before financial improprieties, scheming rivals, and scandal toppled their carefully constructed empire.
"Jessica Chastain delivers an Oscar-worthy performance in the title role, and Andrew Garfield is nothing less than sensational as her soft-spoken, indifferent, and cloyingly ambitious preacher husband Jim." - Observer
GOLDEN GLOBE NOMINEE - Best Actress - Drama (Jessica Chastain).
★★★★ "While The Eyes of Tammy Faye is a flattering account of the televangelist, it still manages to show her flaws - humanizing her in the process." - Screen Rant
"Absorbing, amusing and provocative" - Washington Post
