BIG BOSOMS ON THE BIG SCREEN?

"Big Bosoms and Square Jaws: The Biography of Russ Meyer, King of the Sex Film," the book by Jimmy McDonough has been optioned for a film. The Dark Horizon site notes that director/producer Rob Cohen ("Fast and the Furious", "Stealth") and former Revolution Studios player Todd Garner have picked up the rights for Cohen to direct.

Meyer, who died in September 2004 at the age of 82, was the infamous director/writer/producer of sexploitation romps such as "The Immoral Mr. Teas", "Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!", and the 1970 cult classic "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls", written by that Ebert guy.

Cohen had been in charge of recutting Beyond the Valley of the Dolls when he was a 23-year-old studio flunky.
