'Finders keepers lovers weepers!' may be the most conventionally plotted of all Russ Meyer movies. Boil it down, and it's basically a heist film, with a bloke conspiring to rob a bar of its takings. Obviously women with enormous breasts keep getting in the way. And, actually, it's a good thing they do, since plot doesn't prove to be one of Meyer's strengths. Although from his great period, this is a lesser effort.
'Pandora Peaks', on the other hand, is a kind of after-thought to his career, made as a sort of visual complement to his autobiography, it gives Meyer the chance to talk about his favourite things ('fishing and titting'), introduce us to a few of his pals and return to some of his old haunts. Hitler gets a name-check, too. Fans will love this. Interspersed with the good stuff are shots of Pandora and Tundi taking their clothes off and jiving around - and talking about how much they love having sex. This is rather more trying, unless you own a dirty mac - in which case, you'll love it.
