Quiz
Winner of the Medved brothers' Golden Turkey Award in the category "Worst Two-Headed Transplant Movie".

Blooper
It appears that more than Kirschner's head was transplanted to Moss's body. If smoke is breathed in by one head and exhaled by the other, there must be some connection to the lungs. If Kirschner is talking, he must have a voice box. Could both talk at the same time? In spite of the science jargon, there is no evidence that anything but the head was transplanted.

Citazioni
Lila: Get some sleep, baby, I'll wake you once dinner's ready.
Jack Moss: Let's just stay here a little while.
Lila: Now come on, honey, I got to start dinner.
Jack Moss: You don't have to start now, why don't you start it later?
Lila: [hesitant] Oh come on Jack, I... I
[she glances at Kirshner]
Jack Moss: Is he bothering you? I'll cover his head with a pillowcase.
Dr. Maxwell Kirshner: [with disgust] You must be joking! Is that all you people think about?
Lila: [with disgust] It's no use honey, maybe when I get used to it.
[walks off]
Jack Moss: [turns to Kirshner] Now you know you got to go!

Provocative & Savvy

Rosey Grier and Ray Milland are the most dynamic pairing in cinematic history. I used to think it couldn't get much better than Hepburn and Tracy but I was wrong. When I was enrolled in an anger management class, one of our exercises was to watch this film and then team up in groups of four to reflect on it and make macaroni drawings. I painted my macaroni red and glued it into a heart with "Love Thy Neighbor" etched underneath it in black crayon. My parole officer was so proud. Racism never pays and neither does beating your ex-wife over the head with a steel pipe. My favorite scene is the helicopter chase. It is in no way hokey or prolonged. TWO HEADS is the second greatest movie of the 1970s (I would say "the" greatest, but that title belongs to MITCHELL.)
