Mariska Hargitay is a continued advocate of self improvement.
Just like her counterpart Olivia Benson on the long running “Law & Order: SVU,” Hargitay fights for those who aren’t able to do so themselves.
She’s also willing to revisit her past traumas. Her new documentary, “My Mom Jayne,” will take viewers on an exploration of what the actress has dealt with after the loss of her mother at age three.
Finding Truth
In a profile from The New York Times, Hargitay opens up about what viewers can expect from the new film that is also directed by its subject.
Personal revelations like her real father – Nelson Sardelli – will be explored. Yes, it’s known that her father isn’t the bodybuilder Mickey Hargitay but viewers will see what Hargitay’s relationship with both men was like. She also describes the emotional as well as psychological transformation she had in the making of the documentary.
“I am so clear now about the truth. This big haze came off — a veil of fear. And now I just feel so much at peace. It’s like a miracle to me to feel this way. I never thought I could,” Hargitay says.
There’s a lot of depth thanks to the mother-daughter dynamics along with the grief of the situation. Not to mention the legacy both of her parents left behind.
“You know, there’s so much pain left in the unsaid,” she adds. “And I just wanted to say it. I’m not scared. I can be more Olivia Benson now.”
“My Mom Jayne” should put the former Playboy Playmate as something more than a woman from the centerfold. It’ll humanize her beyond her sexual image, turning her into what Harigaitay sees in her.
Benson In Real Life
This isn’t Harigaty’s first go around with a documentary. She won an Emmy for “I Am Evidence” – a film exploring assault survivors’ relationship with the criminal justice system.
Hargitay also founded the Joyful Heart Foundation, an organization that helps survivors of abuse. She’s also trained as a crisis counselor.
Needless to say, Hargitay – as pointed out in the piece – is the embodiment of Benson. Her role is a symbol of strength for women who aren’t able to live up to the same power.
