The Glamour Camera of Russ Meyer, etc. Photographs, with text

Product Information

Meyer followed Teas with some shorts, This Is My Body (1960) and The Naked Camera, then made a second nudie cutie, Eve and the Handyman (1960). This starred Meyer's wife Eve and Anthony-James Ryan, both of whom would be crucial to the production of Meyer's films. This early and extremely rare Russ Meyer(SUPERVIXENS,BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE DOLLS) directed feature is a cheesecake nudity filled documentary on nude model photography as Meyer takes on the narrating chores while he and his trusty Army buddies spend their time taking numerous photos of numerous big bosomed nude young women,with Meyer explaining the cameras of the time period that are used for those photography sessions. Those years were very confusing to me", said Meyer. "But instead of rushing off and throwing myself out the window, I was able to psychoanalyze myself and discern what was best for me. I looked myself square in the face and realized I couldn't do everything." [15]

HEAVENLY BODIES! is basically a dull documentary on the art of photography that gets dreary at times,as the scientific style description of the various used cameras and the nude scenes with the nude models are pretty much the only things that this film has going for it. With Gaby Martone(THE MERMAIDS OF TIBURON,HOLLYWOOD'S WORLD OF FLESH),Althea Currier(LORNA,THE GIRLS ON F STREET),Monica Liljistrand(THE IMMORAL MR. TEAS),Princess Livingston(MUDHONEY,WILD GALS OF THE NAKED WEST),and Rochelle Kennedy(SKYSCRAPERS AND BRASSIERES) amongst the featured nude models.

Since Russ Meyer’s death in 2004 RM Films International has been owned and operated by the Russ Meyer Charitable Trust and is a Yes, there is little presence of a story, and many of the brave souls who will seek out this film are likely to dislike it and write off the entire project as a muddle. You're, in a way, correct. Pandora Peaks, through all its weirdness and inanity, is almost too easy of a target when put in a critical perspective. And yet, Meyer does what he wants with the project, ,molding it and forming it anarchically, forgoing convention and instated formula. The film is, in many ways, a fine send off to a bold filmmaker, and a strong showcase for its titular character, with an emphasis on "tit."
