This movie chronicles some failures on handling runaway successes in Hollywood. A nostalgic return to the late 1960s for me.
A great movie showcasing the very beautiful Barbara Parkins and the only film to literary view Sharon Tate's acting before her gory death at the hands of Charles Manson.
The story is simple. It tells the direction of the careers of three ladies and how they make it or break it in New York.
The dolls here refers to the ups and downs capsules that they took to keep up with the rat race demands of the show business world.
Neely O'Hara (Patty Duke) succumbed to the pressure and went to the funny farm; Jennifer North (Sharon Tate) starred in blue movies in Paris to keep her husband,Tony at the sanitarium and finally overdosed on the 'dolls'. Anne Welles (Barbara Parkins) flirted around and found peace back in her hometown of Lawrenceville.
The best part of the movie-the hauntingly memorable theme song sung by Dionne Warwick.
Barbara Parkins best effort to date.
Nice movie to return to.
