Beyond the Valley of the Dolls (1970)
Director: Russ Meyer
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
With his first movie for a major studio, Meyer simply did what he'd been doing for years, only bigger and better. That's to say, he turned the homely story of an all-girl rock band's rise to fame under their transsexual manager into a delirious comedy melodrama, soused in self- parody but spiked with dope, sex and thrills.Author: TR
