Trivia
Director Mark Robson had a very combative relationship with all his actresses, particularly singling out Sharon Tate for his harsh treatment. Patty Duke hated working with him, and years later, after his death, still called him "a mean son of a bitch".

Goofs
When Neely is tap dancing on the table, shown by her shadow on the wall, the shadow does not reflect a pony tail, but when she jumps down, she has a pony tail.

Quotes
Neely O'Hara: Boobies, boobies, boobies. Nothin' but boobies! Who needs 'em? I did great without 'em.

Connections
Edited into Intimate Portrait: Patty Duke (2001)

Trash--with a twist!

There's nothing I can add to the many hilarious and trenchant comments of other IMDB users--"Valley" will live forever as one of the greatest bad movies ever. But here's something nobody else has picked up on. The scene when Patty/Neely discovers hubby Ted cavorting in the pool with another woman? Well, before Patty/Neely sees them, she hears splashing and giddy, girlish laugh. That splash and laugh are Marilyn Monroe--audio from her famous nude swim scene in "Something's Git To Give," the movie she never finished.

Somebody at 20th Century Fox--MM's home studio--had a perverse sense of humor!
