    Its Makes Her a Person Not A Poster

    A nice 3D depiction of a woman mostly presented in 2D.

    PALS gives Pamela the opportunity to express herself and its as insightful and it is beautiful.

    My stomach turned after watching her express the pain of the sex tape being returned to the spotlight in the short tv series that really lived to cash in on her true distress. It was a dirty action by the tv show's creators.

    A women who presents at the same time as both insecure and assured, Pamela is an emigma.

    Her decision to take on Broadway was bold and inspired.

    I didn't have an opinion of Pamela as a person before watching the movie, I had enjoyed her talents but I found myself really liking the person she seems to be :)

    Pamela has definitely had an interesting life.

    This was actually a very interesting and well made documentary.

    It moves fast and it tells Pamela's life story from her point of view.

    For a celebrity documentary I'd give it an 8/10.

    Pamela seems like a very genuine, likable person and a good mother. There's so much I never knew about her.

    I was surprised to learn some of the details about her past - for instance that she was in debt most of her life and she was never good with managing her money.

    I also thought she had been married 2 times, but it was actually 6.

    In the end I like that the film doesn't portray Pamela as a victim. She seems to own it all and make the most of it.

    Beautiful

    At first I wondered why is this called "A love story", but once I watched, I understood. Her story is so raw, but also romantic. Pamela is such a sweet hearted woman, despite everything she has been through. She is clearly such a good Mother who would do anything for her kids. You watch this and love just pours at you from the screen. Every word she says. She's not bitter, she could be, most people would, but she's just kind. She's goofy, her smile lights you up inside. This is a love story about all the love Pamela Anderson has given and continues to give everyone in her life. It's a shame that she was exploited so much for so many years and even to this day. I am so glad this documentary was done so tastefully. It was truly poetic. Worth watching for certain. Pamela Anderson is just a lovable soul. She's timeless, too. Before watching this, I aspired to have her beauty. But now I aspire to have her childlike optimism and her kind heart. By the time you finish this documentary you'll be in love with this amazing woman.

    Finally we get to see the Woman

    Please watch this. Finally we get to see the woman behind the image.

    Firstly, she's a sweetheart. Thoughtful, with a wicked dark sense of humor, completely aware of her own flaws. She's also deeply hurt how she was played and portrayed due to that awful sex tape affair that well, still is impacting her live today, through no fault of her own. There was no #metoo yet, she got mauled by the machinery yet came out on the other end to tell the tale.

    I love how she's a woman of today, taking responsibility of the mess but at the same time working what she's got to the fullest. Her search of true love is endearing, her embracing aging refreshing (I'd love to see Jlo shoot a doc without make up). The very loving relationship with her sons shows you who she really is.

    I'd also like to remark how unbelievably beautiful and photogenic she was. I think as a society we could not look past that, we kind of did not allow her ever to really be anything else then something of a silicon doll, which, in view how she wrapped the audience around her finger in the musical Chicago, is a total waste.

    In any case, as a fellow Canadian I was happy to see that she's okay. Happy, still searching for love, but happy.

    Who knew I would absolutely love Pamela Anderson

    Ok, so as a 33 year old I was a bit young to really follow the Pamela Anderson of the 90s. The only things I ever really knew about her were that she was a blonde model who was naked a lot and was in some sex tape. I had seen her on stuff I guess, but never really even thought of her other than as "the blonde bimbo".

    After watching this I'm both sad and happy for that. Having not followed it, I have never seen said tape and I didn't watch the Hulu series. I'm SO glad for that because now that I know she didn't have any part in either of those things I wouldn't want to give them my attention anyway.

    Pamela seems like such a genuine soul who is on this earth to love. I'm sad I never knew how she advocated for animals. She has such a pure heart and it really showed in this doc. Her sons clearly love her as much as she loves them and I love their fun dynamic.

    I was crying like a baby listening to her talk about Tommy. Wow, I never knew they were so in love. But huge respect to her for leaving when she knew she needed to. And I just love how she didn't say a single bad word about anyone. She just doesn't seem like the type who would.
