The US director Gia Coppola presented The Last Showgirl yesterday in the Official Selection. At a press conference she gave after the screening of the film, accompanied by its star, Pamela Anderson, the director revealed that she had always wanted to shoot a film in Las Vegas, and she had also always been interested in the world of showgirls, as it is such a symbol of the city. Pamela Anderson confessed that she had been overwhelmed when she read the script: “I’d never been offered a part like this,” and she had felt really drawn to the mother-daughter relationship. Asked whether she had ever doubted her talent, Coppola said that, “being creative comes with a lot of insecurity”, so she felt reassured that someone like Pedro Almodóvar had brought this up during his Donostia award acceptance speech. “You just keep going and turn off the negative voice in your head”, she explained.
Pamela Anderson also stressed that it had been interesting to show Las Vegas in the daytime: “it’s more vulnerable and revealing. It’s like a woman without makeup.” She also added the experience of shooting the film was like a second act for her. “I had a few missing decades, as if I went from Baywatch to Broadway with nothing in between. It was really exciting to do this at my age. It’s never too late.”
