The Last Showgirl

Pamela Anderson shows her real mettle - a mettle perhaps not seen from her before - playing a seasoned showgirl who has made a 30-year career on the Las Vegas strip, but whose act is repidly declining. When she learns that her famed show is unexpectedly set to close, she faces a late-life crisis. Anderson, whose character is left questioning not just what the future holds but also the costly choices that shaped her past, is excellent, delivering a performance that has single-handedly rewritten the way the former Baywatch celebrity can be viewed as an actor. Jamie Lee Curtis adds zesty suport as Anderson effectively rewrites her career in this poignant drama.
