I did not think I could love Mariska Hargitay more

I've admired Mariska Hargitay and enjoyed her work as an actress for a long time. Now I'm even more impressed with the courage it took to share her complicated life story.There is so much tragedy involved, but it makes me happy to know that as much tragedy as there was, there was even more love. And I'm glad that, to some degree, people were able to admit their mistakes and apologize for them.It's rather head-spinning to think about the identity questions and issues involved and how it plays out over the years of secrecy and mystery. I hope this documentary receives the recognition it deserves.

Absolutely amazing. Mariska is a remarkable human.

I just finished watching this documentary and I'm writing this - trying to see my phone screen - with eyes full of tears. All I can say is - Absolutely AMAZING!Mariska didn't have to allow us into this part of her life. The raw emotion. The everyday clothing. It was like we were "at home" with her. Such a special way to invite us all in. She got to tell her story - her way. When she was ready. You have to love her for it. I love her for it.I don't want to type any spoilers - I will just say it again. This documentary was absolutely amazing and I hope Mariska gets an Oscar in the documentary category for it. She deserves it.Mariska has allowed all of us to be part of her life for the last 26 years on SVU. How many other actors have held the same character this long? Not only that, we want to continue watching her week after week. We don't want it to end. An actor in a role this long is unheard of. How many people have kept any job this many years? That shows you her work ethic and how talented of an actress Mariska is. When I turn on my television every Thursday night, I see someone in law enforcement. I don't see an actress. She is where she is due to her incredible acting ability. Something her mother wanted so badly. To be appreciated for her (many) talents and not just her figure. I'm so proud of Mariska. Doing things on her terms.With the way Mariska grew up, she could have turned out very differently and blamed it on her childhood. Instead, she rose up and has always carried herself with class. She is highly respected in the industry. A role model. In spite of it all and prior to this documentary - we only knew half of her story.This documentary humanizes Mariska and how she came to be here. It showed what Jayne went through as a mother trying to make it as a serious actress in the industry. My heart hurt for her. I cried with her. I laughed with her. I grew up without parents after the age of 12, I could feel the void in her heart. I know that void. I want to say so much more but don't want to have spoilers.I do have to close with this: To this person who left the review before this one that gave a 3/10 because they felt the documentary wasn't about Jayne, but more about Mariska - you obviously cannot read and should revise your rating. Shame on you. The title of the documentary is very clear. It states "My MOM, Jayne" - "Mariska Hargitay's journey to understand and embrace the public and privacy legacy of her mother, Hollywood icon Jayne Mansfield. Mariska delves into her mother's story for the first time - searching for the mother she never knew almost six decades after the Hollywood legends tragic death." Did this reviewer miss what the documentary was about? It is too bad that I can't respond directly to it. The scathing review was not warranted at all. You misunderstood what the documentary was about and the ratings shouldn't suffer because of your misunderstanding.The story IS about Mariska and her MOM. The mom Jayne was.The ending was a love letter from Mariska to her mother - after many, many years of hurt - and it was beautiful.Thank you, Mariska - for sharing your life with us all of these years. We love you and we are so proud of the woman that you became in spite of it all.

Incredibly Moving

So well done. Poignant and touching. Many surprises that I never knew. So glad they touched on how intelligent Jayne was. I had no idea she was such a talented musician. So amazing to see that Mariska is doing what her mom wish she had transitioned to. A fantastic dramatic actress. I know Jayne is proud. Many moments had me crying but also some humorous moments.Glad she shared some very secretive things about her life and was honestly shocked that no one knew. Especially with social media.Touched by her siblings recounts of their memories of their mother. The end for me in the feels.Just beautifully done.
