Roby might no longer maintain an active website, but as late as 2021 she was still acting in an occasional film project. From there on Lavelle Roby has acted ever since, in roles varying from relatively large to un-credited background. Lavelle Robey & Lavell Roby & Lavell Ruby & even "Lavelle Toby") came to Los Angeles in 1960s, eventually landing her first screen credit in a Get Smart (1965-70) episode, A Tale of Two Tails (1968). Though she had her film debut in Beyond the Valley of the Dolls somewhere in the background, and therefore should be included, we feel that a Wonderment of her caliber deserves an entry all of her own - a Sisyphean task we might one day take on.īorn 17 March 1941, Lavelle Roby (a.k.a. That is, but for one notable exception: the National Treasure that is the Great Pam Greer. The size of their breasts roles is of lesser importance than the simple fact that they are known to be in it somewhere, so we will look at the known unknowns in the background and the headlining semi-knowns in the front. The film is simply Babe Galore - and so, for the year to come, we are looking at the film careers of the women of the Babest Film of All Times, Beyond the Valley of the Dolls. Russ Meyer films are always populated by amazing females sights, but this one latterly overflows its cups in an excess of pulchritude that (even if somewhat more demurely covered than in most of his films) lights the fires of any person attracted to women of the curvaceous kind that preceded today's sculptured plasticity. It does, like Valley of the Dolls, deal with the oft-times nightmare world of show business but in a different time and context.'

In Haji's entry, we wrote, among other things, the following: "Originally intended as a sequel to the 1967 movie version of Jacqueline Susann's novel Valley of the Dolls ( trailer), Meyer and co-screenwriter Roger Ebert instead made a Pop Art exploitation satire of the conventions of the modern Hollywood melodrama, written in sarcasm but played straight, complete with a 'moralistic' ending that owes its inspiration to the Manson-inspired murder of Sharon Tate and her guests on August 9, 1969. Her small, relatively insignificant part could really have been played by anyone and is hardly "star" material, but she does her accent well enough and doesn't embarrass herself at all, despite her entire role consisting of little more than what should be an embarrassing pre-stardom sex scene (in sexy, black Frederick's bra and panties, which she never sheds) and a later bar scene in which she is handed money as a take-a-walk rejection (satisfied, she takes the cash and walks out of the movie). For Bullock, the job was probably a rent-paying necessity made prior to her becoming a name with Speed (1994 / trailer) and Demolition Man (1993 / trailer).
