The Tammy Faye Biopic
In the conflict between spirituality and money, it's a knockout win for Mammon in Michael Showalter's delightfully tacky film adaptation of the disgraced TV preacher and her criminal husband.

It's a spectacle of tacky decor, overdone appearance and hypocrisy, though the lead actress achieves to show the real-life figure in a likable light. Tuesday 14 October, 1.15am, Film4
