12 Movies of the 1960s That Are Still a Pleasure to Watch

Valley of the Dolls (1967)

20th Century Fox

We didn’t say we were making a list of the best films of the 1960s — just the most enjoyable.

Barbara Perkins, Patty Duke and Sharon Tate star as young women struggling to make it in the entertainment industry, who are driven to pill-popping by the demands and bad men all around. It received critical pans, but it’s a fabulous time capsule of the supposedly swingin’ — but actually often dark — 1960s.
