I love "Valley of the Dolls!"

"They drummed you out of Hollywood, so you come crawling back to Broadway. But Broadway doesn't go for booze and dope. Now get out of my way, I've got a man waiting for me." -- Helen Lawson

I was seventeen when I saw that flick, and I realized what garbage Hollywood could make if they put their tiny minds to it. Before that I could watch just about anything without throwing up. Sort of an end of innocence kind of thing.

I just read "Shadow of the Dolls", the "sequel" to "Valley of the Dolls". It's simply bad, and not even good bad. They moved the characters up to the 80s and 90s with no real explanation, and tried to play it straight -- very few b*tchy lines in it, and not even very much sex or drugs!
