Audience Member This documentary is intimate, raw, and beautifully human. Pamela’s journey through public scandals, cruel punchlines, failed marriages and heartbreaks show a resilience that’s rare in Hollywood. She remained kind, humble, and soft at heart. She’s proof that grace can outshine gossip. I’ve never been this happy to see someone finally get the win they truly deserve. My biggest takeaway? Her sons’ deep respect and love for her. Proof that she’s won in all the ways that truly matter. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/08/25 Full Review Stephen C Real footage in 1 hour and 52 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/27/25 Full Review Laura S Loved this! Very well done Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/09/25 Full Review Shirlyn M Gotta love this girl…. She’s still standing, and she’s coming back better than ever. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/07/25 Full Review Audience Member I really enjoyed this. Aside from Baywatch, Playboy and Tommy Lee I didn't know much else about Pamela. I was genuinely surprised by how sweet, gracious and humble she is. She's an amazing mum to her boys. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/04/25 Full Review N P "Pamela, a Love Story" sets the record straight on a plethora of misconceptions during an unforgiving and narrow-minded time via Pamela's own strength and voice. She openly offers the ins and outs of her life with a welcome sense of vulnerability yet lightness, following an individual who's been through a heck of a lot, is dealing with it and somehow comes out on top through her determination and drive. A real, genuine look into a misunderstood icon's story - teaching all of us to never judge a book by its cover. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/14/24 Full Review Read all reviews
