The 1967 Film, Valley of the Dolls
The 1967 film “Valley of the Dolls” was initially criticized for explicitly portraying Hollywood’s seedy side. Still, it has since gained a cult following for its campy fun and iconic fashion. The film starred the beautiful Sharon Tate, pictured above, as Linda—a rising star who captivates the men around her—alongside Patty Duke and Barbara Perkins.
The plot follows the three women’s descent into pill addiction in the entertainment industry, n the film earned Tate a Golden Globe Award nomination. Unfortunately, Tate’s murder by Charles Manson’s followers just two years after the film’s release prevented what would have become an iconic career.
