A racy, frequently hilarious history of the fake boob industry. David Schwimmer, relishing his first major chance to drop his lovable Friends persona, and Chris Cooper (Lone Star) play the pioneering surgeons who make a fortune through their silicon implants in the drug-fuelled 1970s, only to fall out. There's a talented supporting cast (Emily Procter, Matt Frewer, Louise Fletcher, Lyle Lovett) and Lawrence O'Neil's witheringly cynical direction offers up a mordant picture of beauty-obsessed America.

Its quite a good role for David Schwimmer, it tries to be more than what it is and makes cosmetic surgery stand out. like the boom times int the 80s. It tries to show drugs and rock and role which doesnt really fit with back street surgery.
Its enjoyable with a little bit of nudity and does show how desperate women can be to be = to the ideal women.
If you like David you will enjoy this and the fake tash is fantastic, any spanish dude would kill for a tash like that. -
