This Dramatic Portrait
In the battle between God and Mammon, the victory is clear for materialism in Showalter's delightfully tacky true story regarding the shamed TV preacher plus her lawbreaking partner.

It's an extravaganza of bad interior design, excessive cosmetics and hypocrisy, however the lead actress succeeds to show the real-life figure in a likable light. October 14th, 1.15am, Film4
