Seth Rogen, Sebastian Stan, and Lily James in Pam & Tommy (2022)

Review by katelynhoyt-27935

Pam & Tommy

7/10

Accurate and provocatively entertaining but not respectable

I really enjoyed watching this show and thought it was well done. Pam and Tommy were obviously a fun loving couple and I knew the series would be stylish and sexy, but I respected how the filmmakers focused in on the gratuitous denigration Pamela Anderson received during the experience of their privacy being shamelessly publicized and monetized. It was disgusting and deplorable how easily people caricatured her, especially because those home videos so obviously represented the sheer love and happiness the couple shared in their marriage, HOWEVER, I lowered my would-be 9 rating to a 7 when I lost respect for the filmmakers after learning that they never got Pamela Anderson's approval in making the series. Knowing how the scandal ruined her marriage to Tommy Lee and caused them such shame and heartbreak why publicly expose their pain again, ultimately ALSO MONETIZING off of it by reenacting and releasing their story without their blessing? If I were her I'd almost feel like my intimacy was stolen all over again. I'm sure that the cast and crew had good intentions, but whether or not they represented her as the gracious and respectable human being that Pamela Anderson is, I don't think that they actually respected her by making the biopic.
