Pamela: A Love Story

I'm not a fan of Pamela or Tommy. In fact, I pretty much hate celebrities, in general. Just because a person can "play a musical instrument" or "pretend for a living" shouldn't automatically give them the high power status that it now does in our society. With that said, I think this movie does a wonderful job of showing the true characters of Pam & Tommy. Their core values are solid and if you can ignore their celebrity occupations (and the glitter that surrounds that) then you can really see how loving and true they are as human beings. If I were their sons, then there is nothing that I would be ashamed about as having Pam & Tommy as my parents.

Pam's mistakes are that she keeps looking for a happy marriage (REPEAT: she is NOT a bad adult and NOT a bad mother). That message of her strength and core value is clear in this movie and listening to this stripped down "the real Pam" version makes the viewers want her to someday find the love and happiness that she so badly is looking for whether it be forever alone or with someone else.

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.

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.

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.

I think a lot of people out there can relate to her and her life. Not that they are famous etc, but the human stuff every human goes through. All the hardship, trauma, childhood, love, career and life etc.

This documentary was really good, and better than I thought it would be.

Pamela is such a sweetheart, she is such a lovely person. This was the first documentary that I had seen about her. I had no idea that she is this down-to-earth sweetheart.

As she is telling her story and going through all the stuff that she went through, you can sense those emotions too. When she was telling the stories about her having fun, you felt joy watching this and when she told the dark stories of hardship, you felt sadness.

I love that we got to see that soft side of her.

100% I recommend you see this!
