Actress Pamela Anderson, known for her role in “Baywatch”, received the Golden Eye Award on Friday evening at the Zurich Film Festival (ZFF), rewarding a multifaceted career. Her latest film, “The Last Showgirl,” premiered in Zurich.
Presenting the award to the American-Canadian actress, festival director Christian Jungen congratulated her for her “Oscar-worthy performance” in “The Last Showgirl”. “Pamela Anderson plays so well that you forget the person behind the character,” he added
The 57-year-old actress explained that she played herself in Gia Coppola Anderson’s feature film, that of a 50-year-old cabaret dancer at the end of her career who must save her relationship with her daughter. “When I read the script, I said to myself: ‘That’s me. No one else can play this role.”
Animal causes
“We all have value, even in our 50s,” Ms. Anderson said, adding: “You can destroy a building, but you can’t destroy a person.”
She then took part in a debate with ZFF presenter Tanya König, after which she left the room in silence, leaving an impressed audience behind.
If she remains associated with the image of the busty blonde in a swimsuit playing the rescuer in the television series “Baywatch”, Pamela Anderson has been an active animal rights activist for several years. She is involved in campaigns against the wearing of fur and leather or animal testing.
