"It's important that I tell her as she was, not as [what] people want to remember her." Searchlight Pictures has debuted a good behind-the-scenes featurette for The Eyes of Tammy Faye, discussing "The Soul of Tammy Faye" and Jessica Chastain's process of developing this feature. It's premiering at TIFF this month, and we already posted the first full trailer previously. The movie depicts the history of the televangelists Tammy Faye Bakker and Jim Bakker. During her career Tammy was noted for her eccentric and glamorous persona, as well as for moral views that diverged from those of many mainstream Evangelists, including acceptance of LGBT views and reaching out to HIV/AIDS patients at the height of that epidemic. Jessica Chastain stars as Tammy, and has been involved in developing this project and playing her in a film for years, before the current director joined the project. The film's cast also features Chandler Head as Young Tammy, Andrew Garfield as Jim Bakker, Vincent D'Onofrio as Jerry Falwell, Cherry Jones, Fredric Lehne, Mark Wystrach, Sam Jaeger, Gabriel Olds, and Jay Huguley.
