of 1995 was sultry. A heatwave broiled North America and western Europe for much of July; people escaped to air-conditioned cinemas to watch “Batman Forever”, ‘“Apollo 13” and “Pocahontas”. TLC’s “Waterfalls” and Seal’s “Kiss from a Rose” topped the charts. And in Malibu, California, two of the world’s biggest stars—Pamela Anderson, a starlet on “Baywatch”, and Tommy Lee, the drummer for Mötley Crüe—were burgled by a disgruntled former employee.

Largely based on aarticle about the heist and its aftermath, “Pam & Tommy” focuses as much on the thieves and would-be entrepreneurs—handyman and sometime porn star Rand Gauthier and seedy adult-film director Milton Ingley —as the victims, Ms Anderson and Mr Lee .

She seems just as at sea in her life as Gauthier is in his. “Is that how you feel, like you gotta please people?” a prospective publicist asks. Her smile doesn’t reach her eyes as she replies: “It’s all I do.”
