Fox 75th Anniversary Double Feature: New Digitally Restored 35mm Print! VALLEY OF THE DOLLS & BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE DOLLS September 1, 2010

Fox 75th Anniversary Double Feature: New Digitally Restored 35mm Print! VALLEY OF THE DOLLS, 1967, 20th Century Fox, 123 min. Dir. Mark Robson. "You know it’s bad to take liquor with those pills," warns small town girl-turned-supermodel Anne (Barbara Parkins) to Broadway diva/train wreck Neely (Patty Duke). Neely’s answer: "They work faster." If you want to see the great, bitchy, booze-angst-sex-drugs-fueled godmother to the "Real Housewives" franchise, you’ve come to the right place! Based on Jacqueline Susann’s runaway bestseller - which practically created a cottage industry in glossy, sex-drenched soap operas on page and screen - VALLEY also co-stars the tragically beautiful Sharon Tate as B-movie queen Jennifer. Enormous thanks to our friends at 20th Century Fox for striking a new print of this 1960s classic!

Pristine 35mm Archive Print! BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE DOLLS, 1970, 20th Century Fox/Criterion, 109 min. Dir. Russ Meyer. Girl-group madness from the director of FASTER, PUSSYCAT! KILL! KILL! Dolly Reed, Marcia McBroom and Cynthia Myers journey from hicksville to Hollywood, hoping to make it with their rock trio, The Carrie Nations. They fall prey to the "business" as well as their own inflated ambitions, in what is arguably Meyer’s most purely entertaining, pop-culture sex-fest (co-written by film critic Roger Ebert). With additional tunes by The Strawberry Alarm Clock. Discussion and meet-and-greet with actors John Lazar and Harrison Page between films. More surprises to be announced on our website! This event is part of the 75th Anniversary celebration of 20th Century Fox. As part of this nationwide celebration, Fox is presenting “Hometown Hollywood” events in 15 cities, featuring films being shown in the cities in which they were shot and by which they were inspired.
