The Tammy Faye Biopic
In the conflict between faith and wealth, the winner is obvious for Mammon in Showalter's delightfully tacky film adaptation about the fallen televangelist and her felon spouse.

It's a riot of poor styling, overdone appearance and hypocrisy, yet Chastain succeeds to show the real-life figure with compassion. October 14th, early morning, on Film4
