The rights to Moshe Dayan’s autobiography, “Story of My Life,” published by William Morrow, has been acquired by Otto Preminger, the producer-director who scored with the film “Exodus.” Preminger said Dayan has agreed to be story advisor and consultant for the film titled, “The First 25 Years: Dayan’s Israel.” Preminger, who will produce and direct the film independently, has not as yet arranged for a distributor. He said he was currently discussing the project with screen writers and hoped to start filming in the spring on locations in Israel.
