Have you ever seen Head? It was a movie The Monkees made in the late 60s that was co-written by Jack Nicholson and directed by Bob Rafelson, who also directed Five Easy Pieces. It’s utterly insane and anarchic. Their songs were their own in that film. A lot of people hate it because there’s no plot and nothing makes sense. But that’s why I love it.
Definitely. Help! came out three years earlier and had already upped the surreality factor from A Hard Day’s Night. And then everyone started doing LSD…

I have seen it! From what I can tell, the chaotic nature was a direct play on the Beetles films. I watch Head every few years or so.
