Pamela Anderson plays Shelly in "The Last Showgirl," a film about a middle-aged showgirl who has worked for decades in a gradually dwindling act on the Las Vegas strip. She has an existential crisis after discovering that her well-known show is abruptly closing. It is undeniable that the film's surface appeal for almost the entire audience is to see the star in a way that has never been seen before.
