Documentary on Hollywood Blonde Bombshell Mamie Van Doren in the Works (EXCLUSIVE)
Production has started on a documentary about Hollywood blonde bombshell Mamie Van Doren.
Producers are Alan Eichler, Stephen Israel and Marc Saltarelli, who also directs – the same team behind the award-winning 2024 documentary “Studio One Forever.” Van Doren – one of the “Three M’s,” Mamie, Marilyn (Monroe) and (Jayne) Mansfield – rode the crest of the “blonde bombshell” craze, and is the only one to have survived to age 94. Originally sold as Universal’s answer to Monroe, she carved out a niche of her own, becoming the first woman to do rock-and-roll on screen in such teenage cult classics as “Running Wild” with Bill Haley, “High School Confidential” with Jerry Lee Lewis, “Untamed Youth” with Eddie Cochran, “Sex Kittens Go to College” and “Girls Town” with Paul Anka.
