Valley of the Dolls
In the Valley of the Dolls, it's instant turn-on… dolls to put you to sleep at night, kick you awake in the morning, make life seem great – instant love, instant excitement, ultimate hell!
Directed by Mark Robson
Produced by Red Lion, 20th Century Fox
A cautionary melodrama about three women's descent into addiction and self-destruction amid the glittering, hollow promises of 1960s show business.
Lured by their dreams of fame and fortune, three ambitious young women enter the world of show business and discover how easy it is to sink into a celebrity nightmare of ego, alcohol and pills — the beloved "dolls."
