Keith B @Okbullard Aug 18 I remember this film coming out when I was 12 years old but never watched it. I really liked the Patty Duke TV series about identical cousins (ridiculous). Now I realize I didn't miss anything at all with this silly film. Don't bother with this garbage.

For this reason I think this is why valley of the Dolls was rated lower than it would have been today. The drugs , alcohol, infidelity, etc. Were too risque for most conservative Americans. Even though they knew these things existed being brought to light in a movie, was considered evil or bad by many people. I personally feel it was an excellent movie with good music, great actors, and a very realistic story. I truly feel it's one of the best movies in the history of cinema in United States. I give it a five star rating all day long. To See more Carl G. @CarlGemayel Feb 9 Good film not great. The topic discussed deserved better. It’s a bit messy with some good performances and other bad performances. My favorite storyline by far was that of Jennifer (Sharon Tate) and Tony (Tony Polar).
It made me feel so bad and actually a bit creeped when I saw Jennifer (Sharon Tate) being taken out by firefighters in a white bag after her suicide.
My favorite performance was that of Patty Duke, she delivers a powerhouse performance and my least favorite was that of Barbara Parkins, I just didn’t like her character and her weak performance (but that weak performance came from a weak character that was written in this way).
The score by John Williams is not bad (some songs are) but it’s definitely one of his weakest.
Good film by Marc Robson and looking forward to seeing Russ Meyer’s Beyond the Valley of the Dolls. See more Stephen C @bob25009 Sep 27 Success in 2 hours and 3 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our values have also changed so much. It's a rather sugary peek at what the world saw as acceptable behaviour and unacceptable behaviour. That its so predictable is a pity. Enjoyable schmaltz. Sharon Tate is lovely however.

I liked the strong 60s style. One of few movies which Sharon Tate is in. See more Read all reviews
