1967148772Culver City CA: Columbia Pictures 1967. Collection of twelve vintage color narrow border studio still photographs from the 1968 film.<br/><br/>Bob Rafelson co-creator and executive producer of the 1967/1968 television series "The Monkees" took the concept in a decidedly different direction for his first film; a sardonic view of The Monkees as a commodified concept and a vehicle for acidic social commentary. In a series of rapidly-edited sequences through various film genres and experimental and psychedelic detours"Head" took on just about everything the counter culture was concerned with but depicted by the 'fake' pop group the counter culture despised "Head" fared miserably at the box office. <br/><br/>A harbinger of New Hollywood "Head" has been rightfully reconsidered in the years since its release now recognized as a cult classic and possibly the only truly psychedelic film to come out of Hollywood. Featuring an incredibly diverse cast of unlikely cameos and supporting actors such as Victor Mature Annette Funicello Timothy Carey Sonny Liston Ray Nitscheke Carol Ann Doda Frank Zappa T.C.

1970146086New York: Pressman Williams 1970. Draft script for the 1973 film. Copy belonging to cinematographer Gregory Sandor with his name in holograph pencil on the verso of the title page and holograph pencil annotations throughout.<br/><br/>Danielle is a beautiful model separated from her conjoined twin Dominique. When her neighbor an aspiring journalist suspects Danielle of a brutal murder the horror of Danielle's disturbing past begins to surface. Director Brian De Palma based his original story on a Life magazine article about conjoined twins in the Soviet Republic who had been successfully separated but were experiencing psychological problems as a result of the operation. <br/><br/>With its use of visually dense point-of-view and split-screen camera techniques "Sisters" is one of De Palma's earliest forays into erotic voyeurism as a conduit for psychological horror paving the way for a string of idiosyncratic psychosexual projects in the ensuing years such as "Obsession" 1976 "Dressed to Kill" 1980 "Blow Out" 1981 and "Body Double" 1984 among others. Given its focus on the anxiety of the gaze "Sisters" can also be read as an homage to Alfred Hitchcock-openly referencing "Rope" 1948 "Rear Window" 1954 and "Psycho" 1960-and indeed the film was even scored by Bernard Hermann a frequent musical collaborator for Hitchcock's films.<br/><br/>Set and shot on location in New York. <br/><br/>Maroon titled wrappers.
