(Melissa McCarthy)
M-Net Movies
Showcase DStv Channel 108 will screen the comedy Tammy on December 17 at 20h00
Directed by Ben
Falcone in 2014, the cast is headed by Melissa McCarthy, Susan Sarandon and
Kathy Bates
McCarthy, who plays
comedy and drama with the same aplomb, outshines Oscar winners Kathy Bates and
Susan Sarandon in a side-splitting road movie that doesn’t mind veering off the
neatly-paved tarmac onto the loose gravel, all for a laugh.
Tammy loses her job
and her husband and decides to hit the road alone, resisting her grandma
Pearl’s plea to be taken along. A wad of cash soon persuades her to change her
mind, and the two set off on a madcap adventure during which Pearl finds love as
well as a stint in jail! Rating16L
