	(MEYER, RUSS). MEYER, RUSS & ADOLPH ALBION SCHWARTZ. FOREWORD BY ROGER EBERT A CLEAN BREAST!: THE LIFE AND LOVES OF RUSS MEYER (THE RURAL FELLINI... HIS FILMS, FANTASIES UND FRAULEINS) - COMPLETE IN THREE VOLUMES Hollywood, CA, The Hauck Publishing Company, Inc., 2000, First Edition. (ISBN: 0-9621797-2-8) Gilt Embossed Cloth, 4to, xviii + iii + vii, 359 + 418 + 436pp, profusely illustrated in sepia-toned monochrome plates. "After a decade of ceaseless toil, the legendary director and Breastman extraordinaire has finally unleashed a pictorial account of his life and mind. Surrender yourself to a startlingly intimate look into the personal and professional life of the director. Feast on a carnal adventure as the lensman describes in detail a Tinsel Town debauch replete with classic films and the most cantilevered women ever to undulate over the Earth's surface. And the Women!!! Over 2,500 photos personally selected by Russ Meyer from his vast underground archive nestled deep within the hills of Hollywood. See Lorna Maitland, Tura Satana, Uschi Digard, Erica Gavin, Kitten Natividad, Tundi, Melissa Mounds, Letha Weapons, Pandora Peaks and dozens more, as you've never seen them before. Thrill to the lust-crazed filmman's erotic meanderings as he recounts for you his monumental couplings with the most oversized and desirable women ever". As if we could add to the author's own hyperbole, this monumental autobiographical kiss and tell comprises three massive tomes detailing Russ Meyer's rise from U.S. Army European Theater combat cameraman to legendary exploitation filmmaker. As an auteur, Meyer has produced such classics as "Mudhoney", "Motor Psycho", "Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!", "Vixen", "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls", and too many more to mention. In fact, virtually all of Volume Three is a detailed filmography (with hundreds and hundreds of stills), even including a chapter setting the record straight on his and Roger Ebert's aborted participation in the Sex Pistols' "Who Killed Bambi?". Of course, in addition to the always entertaining narrative, there are over a thousand nicely reproduced images of the prominent women in his life including the so far unmentioned Eve Meyer, Diane Webber, June Wilkinson, Cynthia Myers, Dolly Read, Haji, Edy Williams, Raven De La Croix, Susan Bernard, and so many more, as well as numerous heavily endowed illustrations by the renowned Bill Ward. It's hard to imagine a more thorough examination of a filmmaker's life and art than what the late, great Russ Meyer wittily produced here in twelve hundred and thirteen pages.

	(MEYER, RUSS). MEYER, RUSS & ADOLPH ALBION SCHWARTZ. FOREWORD BY ROGER EBERT A CLEAN BREAST!: THE LIFE AND LOVES OF RUSS MEYER (THE RURAL FELLINI... HIS FILMS, FANTASIES UND FRAULEINS) - COMPLETE IN THREE VOLUMES Hollywood, CA, The Hauck Publishing Company, Inc., 2000, First Edition. (ISBN: 0-9621797-2-8) Gilt Embossed Cloth, 4to, xviii + iii + vii, 359 + 418 + 436pp, profusely illustrated in sepia-toned monochrome plates. "After a decade of ceaseless toil, the legendary director and Breastman extraordinaire has finally unleashed a pictorial account of his life and mind. Surrender yourself to a startlingly intimate look into the personal and professional life of the director. Feast on a carnal adventure as the lensman describes in detail a Tinsel Town debauch replete with classic films and the most cantilevered women ever to undulate over the Earth's surface. And the Women!!! Over 2,500 photos personally selected by Russ Meyer from his vast underground archive nestled deep within the hills of Hollywood. See Lorna Maitland, Tura Satana, Uschi Digard, Erica Gavin, Kitten Natividad, Tundi, Melissa Mounds, Letha Weapons, Pandora Peaks and dozens more, as you've never seen them before. Thrill to the lust-crazed filmman's erotic meanderings as he recounts for you his monumental couplings with the most oversized and desirable women ever". As if we could add to the author's own hyperbole, this monumental autobiographical kiss and tell comprises three massive tomes detailing Russ Meyer's rise from U.S. Army European Theater combat cameraman to legendary exploitation filmmaker. As an auteur, Meyer has produced such classics as "Mudhoney", "Motor Psycho", "Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!", "Vixen", "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls", and too many more to mention. In fact, virtually all of Volume Three is a detailed filmography (with hundreds and hundreds of stills), even including a chapter setting the record straight on his and Roger Ebert's aborted participation in the Sex Pistols' "Who Killed Bambi?". Of course, in addition to the always entertaining narrative, there are over a thousand nicely reproduced images of the prominent women in his life including the so far unmentioned Eve Meyer, Diane Webber, June Wilkinson, Cynthia Myers, Dolly Read, Haji, Edy Williams, Raven De La Croix, Susan Bernard, and so many more, as well as numerous heavily endowed illustrations by the renowned Bill Ward. It's hard to imagine a more thorough examination of a filmmaker's life and art than what the late, great Russ Meyer wittily produced here in twelve hundred and thirteen pages.
