Valley of the Dolls is one of the greatest movies EVER! It's filled with drama, cat-fighting, camp, drugs, sex, rock and roll - plus...HELLO...Sharon Tate, Patty Duke, Barbara Perkins and Susan Hayword. They just don't make 'em like this anymore. It's surreal and gritty at the same time - and filmed in that super-fabulous 1967 retro cool genre. Watch and love. And then read the original novel by Jacqueline Susann. It's even steamier than the movie.

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." A prim New Englander (Barbara Parkins) unexpectedly skyrockets from her job as secretary in a talent agency to a glamorous TV model. A determined singer (Patty Duke) finds that Hollywood success can also spell self-destruction. And a beautiful sex symbol (Sharon Tate) is torn between the money commands and the shame of feeling exploited. Based on Jacqueline Susann's phenomenal best-seller about the underside of Hollywood this fascinating melodrama was once seen as a shocking behind-the-scenes look at how show business creates instant stars destroys romances and changes personalities forever.
