The Eyes of Tammy Faye is a biographical drama film that delves into the rise, fall, and redemption of televangelist Tammy Faye Bakker. In the 1970s and 80s, Tammy Faye and her husband, Jim Bakker, rose from a middle-class life to create the world’s largest religious broadcasting network and theme park and were revered for their message of love, acceptance, and prosperity. However, financial failings and scandals tarnish their reputation, bringing their religious empire to a crashing halt.
While The Eyes of Tammy Faye is a flattering of the televangelist, it still manages to show her flaws — humanizing her in the process.
