вЂњIf I ever felt laid back and easy, then thatвЂ™s not the character, because she was always putting herself out there.вЂќДЄndrew GarfieldвЂ™s performance as her righteous and cheating husband Reverend Jim Bakker also intimidated Chastain: вЂњYou always have to work with people who make you work harder. вЂњBecause youвЂ™re too comfortable in this music,вЂќ he told her, вЂњand I need it to sound like youвЂ™re reaching to the heavens, I need you to really push like she did.вЂќ Chastain realized he was right. Singing coach Dave Cobb helped her by forcing her to raise the key. While she had studied singing at Juilliard, вЂњit was acting through song, not like singing,вЂќ she said. How does my energy go beyond the visual, because she was super present?вЂќ Eventually she came to realize вЂњthat using the prosthetics, makeup, hair, wigs, and costumes was giving me something to push against.вЂќДЄnd Chastain had to sing. вЂњI was nervous, like how do you act through it? You walk into a room and itвЂ™s like, everyone was gonna see the makeup because it was so good. вЂњWhen we did the first test for Tammy, I had a bit of a freakout,вЂќ she said. And thatвЂ™s the difficult thing, because a character who is larger than life, whose makeup is so wonderfully fabulously expressive, and clothing, and her voice, and her humor, and her camp - the whole penile pump is real, I watched the video, she did it on her show! How do you do all of that and not make it into a joke? How do you really show that a person can love camp and can love excess but still have a heart and be a living breathing human being that feels things? That was a real fine line to walk.вЂќДЄt first Chastain was afraid of the weight of the makeup. вЂњThatвЂ™s insane to me that we care more about how much makeup a woman is wearing than actually what sheвЂ™s doing. вЂњThere was more information about her mascara than telling Christians in the community that we need to love people and not ostracize those that are dying of AIDS,вЂќ she said.

The actress had to calibrate just how to dress and make-up and sound as Tammy Faye - including singing - without turning her into a caricature. I had to celebrate her true story for this new generation of people who may not know her.вЂќ And I want to put my arms around you.вЂ™ And I am convinced Steve Peters and Tammy Faye saved lives with that interview. She brought Steve Peters on her show, an openly gay minister with AIDS, and she told her audience, вЂwe as Christians need to love everyone. The interview she had with Steve Peters was mind blowing at that time, when the US government isnвЂ™t even comfortable saying the word AIDS and communities are dying. The only thing I knew was the drama, right? What the media sensationalized, the sketch comedy jokes, the tabloid fodder. вЂњAnd I realized that I didnвЂ™t know anything about the real Tammy. вЂњI was just blown away by this woman and filled with compassion and love,вЂќ she said. When a jet-lagged Chastain watched the вЂњEyes of Tammy FayeвЂќ documentary during the press tour for вЂњZero Dark Thirty,вЂќ she saw a different woman from the one portrayed in the media.
