Bob Rafelson\\u2019s\\xa0Head\\xa0offers an acid-dipped, musical journey through the artistic and professional frustrations of the Monkees, post TV show and struggling apologize for their existence with the verylanguage of the flower-powered, freak-out culture that had long-since rejected them. \\xa0Never quite settling on a format, the film jumps from comic vignette, to surrealist mindscape, tv show parody, concert performance, and A Hard Day\\u2019s Night-style band chase reimagined as a sun-soaked Californian suicide.

If you\\u2019d like to watch ahead for next week\\u2019s film, we will be discussing and reviewing Jim Jarmusch\\u2019s\\xa0Mystery Train\\xa0(1989).
