“Head Games”

This image reminds me of some of the more stylized opening credit sequences from films and TV of the 60’s and 70’s. Band-like figures moving in different directions which then lock together as a coherent picture. The thrill of disorientation and movement all on a static screen. An entertainment equivalent of tri-colored shag carpeting (which we had in our den and my older sister and I both had in our respective attic bedrooms). It was a great idea at the time…

“Frank Burnside is a tough former New York City COP who quit the force after uncovering evidence of heavy police CORRUPTION. He bounced around in odd jobs before renting a small office in the Bowery as a private investigator. He was enjoying life’s slower pace until a chance encounter with an old FLAME led him into a LABYRINTH of mystery, intrigue and MURDER! Whether you’re a cop, a pimp, a politician, or a loan shark, it seems that old scores are never fully SETTLED!…. Starring George Segal as Frank Burnside…. with George Peppard, Lee Remick, Jan-Michael Vincent, Anthony Franciosa, and Shelley Winters as Cookie Walters. HEAD GAMES is one game you will NEVER forget!” (Warner Bros.)
