Chapter 7 Hollywood Dolly Dolly never thought of herself as a movie star, but she was offered a role she couldn't refuse... playing someone very much like herself! The famous actress Jane Fonda sent her a script for a movie that would be called Nine to Five. It was a comedy about three women who work for a terrible boss and how they get even with him. Dolly played a secretary, Doralee, who, at the end of the movie, becomes a country-western singer! On the first day, Dolly arrived at the film studio in Los Angeles with the entire script memorized... not just her own part. Everybody else's, too!

The movie was a box-office hit, too. The next big movie Dolly made was not as much fun. Some of the other actors and the director were hard to work with. But for Dolly the biggest problem with making movies was all the waiting around. She had too much energy for that. Even so, Dolly kept on the lookout for other movie roles. In 1989, she starred in another film

剧本背面写着电影的主题曲。 这首歌也被称为“朝九晚五”。 当这部电影在1980年上映时，这首歌成为流行音乐和乡村音乐排行榜的冠军。 这部电影也取得了票房上的成功。 多莉拍的下一部大片就没那么有趣了。 其他一些演员和导演很难合作。 但对多莉来说，拍摄电影最大的问题是等待。 她精力太充沛了。 即便如此，多莉仍在寻找其他电影角色。 1989年，她主演了另一部电影

不幸的是，多莉想做的太多了。 她的健康受到了影响，她感到非常沮丧。 她甚至几个月都不想弹吉他或写歌。 她需要休假！一个安静而遥远的地方…… 也许澳大利亚!

Dolly returned to the United States to do a thirty-five-show tour. She was overtired and often sick.
