07/31/2022 The greatest 01 hour: and 24 minutes with real footage and interviews!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more 07/24/2020 I went with 2 stars for this movie/docu. I thought that it was interesting and explained a lot about Jayne and about her life etc... It was kinda nice to see other celebrity's input about her and her life etc... it passed the time I only seen it once. Idk if I would watch it again though. The little parts of the random people singing and dancing "being Jayne" was random and odd 2 stars. See more 03/09/2018 "Jayne Mansfield was a Hollywood starlet born under the blinding light of the fifties, and shadowed by the sex-positivity of the swinging sixties. In either a desperate plea to the underworld, or a rather calculated publicity stunt - Jayne soon found herself knocking on the door of the devil himself, in Church of Satan Founder Anton LaVey. Opening with bold, hot pink lettering, Mansfield 66/67 warns us that the film we are about to watch conveys 'opinions expressed that are not approved or endorsed'. But, we were well aware we'd be digging through rumours - the film's tagline is "a true story based on rumor and hearsay". Is there anything more delectable than a Blonde Bombshell making deals with the devil? Bring on the Gossip! A strange story begs for an even stranger retelling in Mansfield 66/67. The film is a bit of a hodge-podge of classic documentary interviews and archival materials, spliced with experimental dance numbers, performance art and cartoon animation. Though mixed-media the content, the subject is all Jane. With it's eclectic voice, there is no doubt or question that Mansfield 66/67 successfully celebrates the life and controversy of a quirky Hollywood idol."

It was an ooooooover indulgent edit, and by edit, I mean every archival clip of Jayne Mansfield in existence--thrown together without even a shred of a storyline! They thought that adding a bunch of weird people brightly lit in nighties dancing in patterns would tie it all together. I wanted to pull my entire finger nails off. I cannot believe they managed to get John Waters for this--nor can I believe he would agree to be lit so...angelically (and just BAD). An iphone and some home depot lights would be better in skilled hands. See more 07/07/2017 Campy and fun to start, it became muddled and spent much time in the end on the Anton Levay angle and was she cursed by the Church of Satan? I will say seeing cult stars like Dolly Read and Susan Bernard now was fun. I never could quite figure out what it was trying to say beyond that except maybe youthful beauty dies.
