Mariska Hargitay is set to narrate a fresh HBO documentary titled “My Mom Jayne,” sharing stories about her beloved late mother, Jayne Mansfield.
In this movie, Hargitay makes her first attempt as a feature film director, delving deeply for the first time into the tale and impact of Mansfield, a figure who passed away almost six decades ago.
Hargitay describes this movie as a deeply personal journey. It’s about finding the mother I’ve never met, understanding a piece of myself I hadn’t acknowledged before, and reclaiming my mother’s story and my own truth,” Hargitay explains. “I’ve always felt that being open about one’s weaknesses can be powerful, and creating this film has shown me the power of vulnerability more strongly than ever.
In the 1950s, Mansfield was a sensational figure in Hollywood, and she married Mickey Hargitay, who was crowned Mr. Universe, in 1958. The two frequently appeared together in films such as “Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?” and “The Loves of Hercules.”
