Mariska Hargitay is set to direct a new HBO documentary, “My Mom Jayne,” about her late mother, Jayne Mansfield. The film explores Hargitay's journey to understand and embrace her mother's legacy, nearly sixty years after Mansfield's tragic death in a car accident. The documentary features intimate interviews, never-before-seen photos, and home movies to uncover the layers of who Jayne was, both publicly and privately. Hargitay describes the project as a "labor of love and longing" and a process of reclaiming her mother's story and her own truth.
