This should be Jessica Chastain's most Oscar-worthy performance. Indeed, biopics are best at showcasing an actor's abilities, and it's pleasantly surprising to see how much more expressive and controlled Andrew Garfield has become after honing his skills on stage. The film may appear to be a straightforward biopic, but the complexity of Tammy Faye, the infiltration of Christianity in America, and how it affected significant historical changes create a wondrous allegory. Regardless of how she became an LGBT activist (that interview segment is fantastic), Tammy Faye was still a woman who became "blind" due to her faith, yet also gained conviction through it. The power and powerlessness within her are perhaps the source of both radiance and conflict in her eyes.
