My Mom Jayne: A Film by Mariska Hargitay
In her feature film directorial debut, Emmy®- and Golden Globe-winning actress and filmmaker Mariska Hargitay (producer of HBO's I Am Evidence) delves into her mother Jayne Mansfield's story for the first time – searching for the mother she never knew almost six decades after the Hollywood legend's tragic death. Just three years old when Jayne died in a car accident at the age of 34, Mariska seeks to answer her long-held questions about her mother and integrate the truths she uncovers into her own sense of self. Through intimate interviews and an extensive collection of never-before-seen photos and home movies, My Mom Jayne is a testament to the transformative rewards of an unflinching search for truth, unveiling Mariska's journey to reclaim her mother's story – and her own.
