Last night I finally made it around to watching some more Oscars movies for this year. The Eyes of Tammy Faye is nominated for just two Oscars this year, those being; Jessica Chastain for Best Lead Actress, and Best Makeup and Hairstyling. I think Chastain very much deserves this award, she acted the goddamn house down and the way they transformed her throughout the movie is enough to convince me they deserve the other award too. Andrew Garfield had an amazing 2021, from this to Tick…Tick… BOOM and Spider-Man. But he is really good here, Garfield is a truly talented actor. Cherry Jones is also pretty good here, but I think they could have leaned into her side of the story a bit more. Vincent D’Onofrio is somehow just as imposing here as he is as Kingpin, he really dominated each scene he was in. Mark Wystrach doesn’t get enough time to shine but plays a pretty important role in the film. This movie deals with a lot in its fairly short time and I think it hurts a little for it. The pacing flies through time so fast that we see both of Tammy’s kids get born and then we see one again when she is ten and then never see the other one again. They don’t spend much time exploring Garfield’s character’s sexuality issue which makes it feel like it’s not important. But for many people, struggling to find a place with God while being Queer is a huge issue. I didn’t know much about Tammy Faye and Jim Bakker before starting this movie which really helped with how I thought of it. I didn’t know all the information of the scandal that needed to be crammed in here so I can’t judge it for what didn’t make it. But it is filmed pretty well and full of amazing performances. I really think that Chastain gave everything she had to this role and deserves that award, there were a lot of strong performances this year in this category but no one else changed themselves as much as she did. She truly is the standout of the film and they do such a good job making her a relatable and endearing character. The Eyes of Tammy Faye gets a big 9/10 from me and a pretty high spot on my 2021 list. I would highly recommend this to anyone, even people who are like me and not very religious. -Tyler.
