The Tammy Faye Biopic
In the struggle between faith and wealth, it's a knockout win for materialism in this director's delightfully tacky true story about the fallen religious broadcaster plus her lawbreaking partner. Garfield plays the greedy Jim, who states at the beginning, “God does not want us to be poor,”. The couple set about profiting from the American public's spiritual convictions. It's a riot of poor styling, bad makeup and hypocrisy, yet Jessica Chastain achieves to depict the character with compassion. Tuesday 14 October, early morning, on Film4
