there be two way to regard head . either it be a dazzling and mind blowing collage of music and old film clip and psychedelia and t. v. sitcom style comedy and or a plot less and pretentious and ramble mess . the truth probably lie somewhere in between . it be also one of the best movie of all time . the monkees davy jones and peter tork and mickey dolenz and and mike nesmith have just finish their hit series and and want to do a movie . in collaboration with writer jack nicholson and director bob rafelson and they make head . it begin at a bridge opening ceremony in san francisco and where the monkees gate crash the proceeding . mickey jump over the safety rail and plunge hundred of foot into the water . mermaid rescue him to the accompaniment of a gorgeous jerry goffin and carole king composition call the porpoise song and visuals that make the stargate finale of 2001 look drab by comparison . by now you will either have switch off in puzzled disgust or be completely captivate . more bizarre happening unfold while mickey use a tank to destroy a coca cola machine in the middle of the desert while the entire italian army surrender to him while the group be hire to play to play the dandruff in victor mature hair for a television commercial while an overweight waitress insult the group and describe them a god gift to the eight year old while a surprise birthday party for mike go wrong while the group be suck into a vacuum clean and and to cap it all and be drive away inside a giant glass tank . you will either hate this or love it . i find it a refresh change from mindless pop musical of the let do the show right here variety . the song be good too while daddy song be superbly choreograph by toni basil ( later to appear in rafelson easy rider ) and boast wonderful edit and with davy clothes change colour at lightning speed . a we go along be a lovely goffin and king number whose accompany image carry a strong environmentalist message . frank zappa and annette funicello be just two of the guest star to crop up . do victor mature read the script before agree to do this and one wonder . he hilarious in it though . so mad there just have to be real genius behind it and head be a little 60 gem and one worth revisit time and time again . shame it do not find an audience at the time . if only spiceworld have be like this .
