About This Item
Includes The Girl Can't Help It (1956)Mob boss Fats Murdock (Edmond O'Brien) leaned on press agent Tom Miller (Tom Ewell) to ignite the pop singing career of his reluctant arm candy Jerri Jordan (Jayne Mansfield), but Fats won't be pleased when the campaign strikes romantic sparks instead. Mansfield's considerable assets combined with a remarkable collection of rock 'n' roll performances to render Frank Tashlin's star-making satire a classic; with appearances from Little Richard, Gene Vincent, Fats Domino, many others. 99 min.

Mark Robson directs an all-star cast including Lana Turner, Lee Philips, Russ Tamblyn, Diane Varsi, Hope Lange, Arthur Kennedy, Lloyd Nolan, Terry Moore. 156 min.
