...concept carried to its logical extreme, a Bob Rafelson and Jack Nicholson film called "Head" that was essentially about the destruction of the group. The Monkeees were not a Woodstock kind of band, and most definitely not a post-Altamont proposition. But for a brief span, they were a bona fide phenomenon, a brilliant, opportunistic creation that somehow also managed to encapsulate the giddy, innocent sincerity...
...real marquee match-ups will come in the Western Conference though. The Blazers, Lakers, Spurs, and Kings are all bona fide threats to winning the crown, and most likely will face off against one another come the conference semifinals and finals.

The movie won five Oscars--including Best Actor (Hopkins), Best Actress (Jodie Foster) and Best Picture--and took a huge bite out of the box office. A decade later, the slickly subdued, eerily serene Dr. Hannibal Lecter still inhabits our nightmares because Hopkins knows that as an actor...
