The Eyes of Tammy Faye could easily be renamed “Jessica Chastain’s Heavenly Oscar Bait.” Yep, this is Chastain’s movie through and through. The big hair, loud clothes, squeaky voice – it all adds up to a revelation of a turn by the actress, one that will no doubt impress audiences and critics alike. The portrayal is more than looks of course, with the past Oscar nominee sinking her teeth into Tammy’s vulnerability, giving plenty of depth to our titular subject. To be fair, Chastain isn’t the only one with a transformative performance, as Andrew Garfield flexes his own chameleon skills – notably nailing the distinct Jim Bakker accent. The spanning story might be a little less impressive however, as it never really finding its focus. In other words, it says a lot, without saying much of anything. That’s not to say it isn’t watchable though, au contraire. The retro world of the 70’s and 80’s depicted is impeccably brought to life by the filmmakers, giving way to lavish colours and exuberant panache. In short, it’s entertaining eye candy. And thanks to our leading lady, it’s actually some pretty darn divine viewing!
