MANSFIELD 66/67: New Poster And Trailer For Crazy Mansfield/LaVey Doc
The poster and trailer for the Jayne Mansfield/Anton LaVey doc Mansfield 66/67 have dropped today. The film will be released this October by FilmBuff. The is more information about that release below.
Who could resist cheering for Jayne Mansfield -- the punk Marilyn Monroe and the ultimate atomic-era sex-positive kitten-gone-berserk -- as she navigates the cultural and spiritual landscape of a quickly changing world?Welcome to MANSFIELD 66/67, a true story based on rumor and hearsay, where classic documentary interviews and archival materials are blended with dance numbers, performance art, and animation, elevating a tabloid tale of a fallen Hollywood idol into a celebration of the mythical proportions of a true original we can't help but live to love more each day.
As a writer you are always chuffed when you find out that your review of a film was quoted in a trailer. Something to write home about. So I have to add the folks at FilmBuff to the list 'People I owe a beer' for their inclusion of Screen Anarchy on this new trailer.
"...a story told in seven parts through a wondrous and delirious mix of archival footage, recreations, dance and stage numbers, even animation. Simply put, there is no shortage of fun ways by which this film engages with its audience. When it is said, ‘this is a story you would only find in a Hollywood movie’ the tales and the rumors about the relationship between Mansfield and LaVey could have been the template. It is a story so completely bonkers that it just has to be true".
Mansfield 66/67 will have its theatrical opening in Los Angeles, CA (and just in time for Halloween) at the Laemmle Fine Arts on 10/27 and, co-programmed alongside a number of Jayne Mansfield classics (Girl Can’t Help It, Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter). There will be a special premiere on Wed 10/25 with talent in attendance.
