Die Jayne Mansfield Story (1980)
1967 kam Hollywoodstar Jayne Mansfield (1933-1967) bei einem Autounfall ums Leben. Der Film erzählt in Rückblenden und aus der Sicht ihres langjährigen Ehemannes Mickey Hargitay die Geschichte einer grossen Liebe und einer Filmkarriere im Hollywood der Fünfziger Jahre! Ihr Talent für Publicity macht Jayne Mansfield zwar zum Star, doch nie zur anerkannten Schauspielerin. Sie kommt von ihrem Image als Paltinblonde Sexbombe und Pin-Up-Girl nicht los. Bis zu ihrem dramatischen Tod.
Der Regisseur: Dick Lowry
