Movie Info

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.

Audience Reviews for The Eyes of Tammy Faye

  • Sep 19, 2021
    Chastain truly disappears into this role and I really think that a sympathetic portrayal of Tammy Faye is appropriate especially when the intended audience for the movie would prefer to simply sneer at her earnestness.
