The Eyes of Tammy Faye is definitely an actors film. I was hoping it'd be like I, Tonya but instead it just felt like a bate for an oscar. Michael Showalter is a proven director, he does solid films, as is this, but he only has one GREAT film and that is the Big Sick. How does one go from the Big Sick to Lovebirds. I get shared actors but that goes from craftsmanship to director for hire Then to go from that to Tammy Faye? It is puzzling. Perhaps he knew Lovebirds was a misstep so he took this to get back on the right track but sadly it is not the film that should follow Big Sick. Give us raw emotion, characters, and storytelling. The acting is good it just is quite boring and uninspired.
