DECEMBER 4, 1971

DECEMBER 4, 1968

The Monkees' motion picture HEAD (prod. #8888) got another shot at audiences to boost ticket sales, opening in a city-wide engagement at 16 theaters and drive-ins in Los Angeles, California, 2 weeks after its West Coast Premiere there at The Vogue Theater. Added to run with the movie as a double feature (limited to the Pacific drive-ins and a handful of theaters) is the then-recent Columbia crime comedy Duffy starring James Coburn. This run lasts 6 days, then the movie would experience another new run in New York City, the site of its World Premiere Engagement.

At this point, Peter Tork had left the band and Raybert Productions had all but severed ties to the remaining trio in the wake of HEAD’s failure; their final managerial commitment to their group was to book them on Heatter-Quigley Productions' tic-tac-toe game to the stars, The Hollywood Squares (NBC, 1966-80), for Christmas week.

Today's MF&TVV Pleasant Valley Black Friday Update
With another Thanksgiving officially a memory, it's now time to roll out The Monkees Film & TV Vault's annual Christmas front page on this Pleasant Valley Black Friday in lieu of the page heralding the anniversary of HEAD (hope you enjoyed it!)---only it's a new Christmas page bearing new darkened wallpaper combining both images of The Monkees' 1967 "Noel" photo first utilized on a 5" x 7" fold-open Christmas card (probably in advance of their 1967 Christmas episode), and the pic of David, Peter, Micky and Michael dressed as Christmas carolers holding plates of Christmas treats, from the 1968 Christmas issue of the now-defunct Ladies' Home Journal magazine (1883-2016)! This is what The Monkees Film & TV Vault's annual Christmas page will feature from now on.
