#ValleyOfTheDolls received one Oscar nomination: best score. It was the first of John Williams’s 18,000 career nominations. #TCMParty

I’m not currently watching any film, just scrolling through my feed, but #TCMParty is watching #ValleyOfTheDolls, and #DriveInMob is watching #SwampThing, and the posts are surprisingly similar. There’s probably a major film essay in there somewhere. 🤷‍♂️

I believe #DuckSoup is on tonight. I think it's the best of the Marx Brothers' movies, or at least it's my favorite, so I'm going to try to be around for that. Tomorrow night TCM will air what is indisputably one of the American movies ever made: #ValleyOfTheDolls.

I learned from #BeKindRewind that Susan Hayward refused to take over the Helen Lawson role until the studio paid Judy Garland all of the money they'd promised. 🫡 #ValleyOfTheDolls #TCMParty

I won’t even go to a night cub unless they can guarantee me a table with my own special lighting. #ValleyOfTheDolls #TCMParty

#ValleyOfTheDolls ran significantly over budget because the sets had to be replaced on an almost daily basis because so many members of the cast had chewed them up so badly. #TrueHollywoodFact #TCMParty
