Head (1968)
10KHead: Directed by Bob Rafelson. With Peter Tork, Davy Jones, Micky Dolenz, Michael Nesmith. The Monkees are tossed about in a psychedelic, surrealist, plotless, circular bit of fun fluff.
“u0026quot;Headu0026quot; is one of those films youu0026#39;ll have a lot of trouble convincing your friends to see, but once they do theyu0026#39;ll fall in love with it. I donu0026#39;t know how many times this has happened to me. This film is just so funny and bizarre, really a deconstruction of everything the Monkees had been up to this point in their career. A lot the credit goes to Bob Rafelson who pretty much ended the Monkeeu0026#39;s career with this film. My guess is he wanted to get out of directing the TV show and get into features, which he did in a big way after this one. Micky Dolenz is absolutely hilarious. I canu0026#39;t believe he didnu0026#39;t have a second life as a comic actor after this film. This film has a lot of great cameos and a lot of wonderful psychedelic nonsense. I feel like the reputation of this film is continuing to build and it wouldnu0026#39;t surprise me if it eventually becomes a full on cult classic”
