Paru en 1966, La Vallée des poupées a provoqué un scandale qui fait un peu sourire aujourd'hui. Jacqueline Susann (1918-1974) parle de liberté sexuelle, de petites pilules colorées qui apaisent [...] Valley of the Dolls is a zipper-ripper that has been called trashy, tawdry, glitzy, lusty, sordid and seamy — and that's just the beginning of its appeal. Valley Of The Dolls can be enjoyed as the ultimate plush, trash, human-interest story - three decades of gossip columns distilled into one fat novel - but also as a document of some cultural interest, published as it was in 1966, but spanning the years from optimistic postwar 1945 to world-weary pre-deluge 1963. Kierkegaard's theorem that life can only be lived forwards and understood backwards has been used as an excuse to dignify a lot of silly, frivolous cultural frills and furbelows with far greater significance than they actually had - including the mini-skirt, Barbie dolls and atheism. But the sheer breadth and depth of this particular disco-ball gives it lasting clout. One of the sexiest novels ever written. A bonafide, ahead-of-its-time American classic.

Dolls: red or black; capsules or tablets; washed down with vodka or swallowed straight -- for Anne, Neely, and Jennifer, it doesn't matter, as long as the pill bottle is within easy reach. These three women become best friends when they are young and struggling in New York City and then climb to the top of the entertainment industry -- only to find that there is no place left to go but down -- into the Valley of the Dolls.

più triste del film, molto più triste: finiscono tutte male e tutto è molto più brutto e desolante: non c'è nessuna presa di coscienza finale né possibilità di riscatte. il trionfo dell'infelicità
