Review

A star rating of 3 out of 5.

Sean McGeady

Pamela Anderson shines in this wistful drama, and not just because she's covered in rhinestones. ShellyGardner has dedicated her life to Le Razzle Dazzle. However, with the long-running Las Vegas revue set to close due to falling ticket sales, it's curtains not just for the show but also for the 57-year-old showgirl's whole purpose for being. Director Gia Coppola's endearing if featherweight film has noble intentions, focussing on the working-class performers who help the City of Sin sparkle. Shelly's crisis as a woman being phased out because she no longer meets society's impossible standards is touching and ever timely. While the film is too reliant on needle drops and dreamy montage sequences, there are strong performances across the board. Bafta-nominated Jamie Lee Curtis goes big as Shelly's ballsy best friend Annette, while Dave Bautista is engagingly soft as Eddie, the doomed revue's producer. But this is Anderson's movie - a triumphant comeback for an actor reckoning with her own age and taking control of her career after decades of press mistreatment.
