MP3 of the Day

The film Beyond The Valley of the Dolls was released on this day in 1970. Originally intended as a sequel to the 1967 film Valley of the Dolls, Beyond the Valley of the Dolls was instead revised as a spoof of the original after 20th Century Fox rejected the two screenplay drafts that were submitted. The final script was written by film critic Roger Ebert. As a result, the studio placed a disclaimer at the beginning of the film informing the audience that the two films were not connected. Posters for the movie read, "This is not a sequel - there has never been anything like it". Upon its initial release, the film was given an X rating by the MPAA. In 1990, it was re-classified as NC-17. Today we have the song How Come You're Such A Hit With The Boys, Jane? by DOLLY MIXTURE.
