Interesting facts

Mansfield 66/67 is a 2017 documentary musical directed by P. David Ebersole and Todd Hughes about the last two years of actress Jayne Mansfield's life. The film examines the rumors surrounding Mansfield's untimely death, and relationship with Anton LaVey as a celebration of Mansfield's life on the 50th anniversary of her death.

Background

Mansfield 66/67 was conceived when writers P. David Ebersole and Todd Hughes were unable to get their narrative The Devil Made Her Do It produced, and instead decided to present their Mansfield/LaVey story as a documentary. More than 100 students and staff from Leeds Beckett University worked with the filmmakers to bring the film to life, inviting Ben Wilkins to re-mix the film in Leeds as a master class.

The film was released theatrically in North America for Halloween 2017, and in the UK in April 2018.
