Renée Zellweger Talks 'The Thing About Pam' Transformation

[@grumpyoldlady_rants]

I am totally fixated on everything about Pam Hupp! I think Rene deserves awards for her portrayal! She is absolutely outstanding!

[@blondie3743]

Agreed, her performance was astounding

[@jennifereusterman]

Absolutely agree!

[@randiken]

I couldn’t agree more!!!

[@grumpyoldlady_rants]

@Home - Grandpa? And what does you comment even mean?

[@bethanycunningham6233]

She truly does. I grew up and lived not even 25 minutes away from this tragedy that Pam Hupp committed in 2011 and it wasn't covered locally in the media like it should have been. Corrupt doesn't begin to describe Lincoln County.

[@beeellejae2417]

She definitely deserves an award for her performance. She totally nailed it.

[@12567NoYouCannot]

I feel like Renee Zellweger is an extraordinaire person, love all her performances, She's unique indeed.

[@LooseCannonShannon777]

Random thought but I adore how attentive, respectful, and engaged she is with the interviewers; Renée Zellweger is such a class-act with whatever she does, not to mention the show is absolutely enthralling!

[@joelvasquezvillanueva4997]

Im really happy for Renee, she is just amazing.

[@helianabanes4875]

Agreed.

[@glossypots]

She actually acts, plays someone other than herself unlike so many actors these days.

[@annamarielewis7078]

I do agree. I define good acting by not playing oneself. Alan Arkin comes to mind.💖🤩🌻🌻🌻

[@mika6516]

Exactly

[@grumpyoldlady_rants]

@@annamarielewis7078 - I really like Alan Arkin. Are you saying he plays characters like himself?

[@gutenbird]

Renee Zellweger is one of the greatest actresses. Pretty much blows most everyone out the water.

[@reedh.5309]

Her new series is riveting, and she’s playing a character you just love to hate, I can’t get enough of this show.

[@shelleyrichey6829]

Renee should absolutely get any award for her portrayal of Pam Hupp.

[@lauraayers7157]

Yeah I had just listened to a podcast about Pam Hupp about a month before the show came on. So I knew I wanted to watch it. Renee did just amazing

[@cherylmangrum4942]

I am hooked! So sad just one more episode left.

[@tmp1111]

I have always really liked Renee. She's a gentle spirit and did an incredible transformation with this role. Her walk is the best replication. If you watch "The thing about Pam" peep at the way she walks.

[@rhythmisadancer8394]

She's a very talented woman. Deserves an award for her portrayal as Pam

[@bluekitty3731]

For me she nailed the way Pam pursed her lips and scrunched up her nose and the way she would go from a bit of a ditz to a complete stone cold lier.

[@MaryLou913]

Oh yes! That walk 😂😂 It’s a very jazzy sort of strut.

[@jfox9126]

So glad to see she’s back on screen again. And amazing that she studied international law - she looks happy.

[@anthonytaylor7928]

Back on screen? She just won an academy award for judy recently

[@alexadellastella5247]

Renée Zellweger is so beautiful! I love that she has her own beauty not a trendy one, but an authentic one!

[@shombie2737]

You said Renee has her own beauty, not a trendy one. What is a trendy beauty?

[@nillers531]

Her face isn't even close to being authentic. It's pretty done over with plastic surgeries.

[@annwithaplan9766]

I love it when older people go back to school. If you have the opportunity, time, and desire, please do it. It's never too late to get more education. It's not for everybody, of course, sometimes money makes it hard but if you get the chance, do it. I love hearing about older people going back to school. Always makes me smile and inspire.

[@kathrynoneill5862]

I feel that way about a 70 year old going to school not so much a woman in her late 40s or early 50s who looks 38 but I get what you are saying and it is very sweet of you to say so.

It's the first time in a while that I've commented while watching something, "she's such a great actress!" *spoiler if you haven't seen the show* At the end of the 2nd episode when they're interrogating her, and the detective first says something that implies she could be involved, she shows a flash of visible shock, her eyes grow wide, and from there on out her crossed leg starts bouncing. I was like, dang, she's actually FEELING the emotion. Amazing!
