Get groovy with the HFA’s ‘Psychedelic Cinema,’ celebrate the Scala and see a local ‘Bloodbath!’. It’s been a cruel summer indeed for Cambridge’s more adventurous cinephiles: The Harvard Film Archive, one of the most unique cinematic institutions in the country, had to close its doors in May to accommodate emergency electrical renovations. Thankfully, the HFA makes a long-awaited return Friday, and it’s coming out swinging. Friday marks the beginning of the Archive’s new “Psychedelic Cinema” repertory series, which offers two solid months of history’s most mind-expanding movies. The series opens, appropriately enough, with two films featuring New Hollywood’s psychedelic poster child, Dennis Hopper: Roger Corman’s lovably goofy “The Trip” (1967), written by a young Jack Nicholson(!!!) and starring Hopper alongside a prefame Peter Fonda and Bruce Dern, and “The Last Movie” (1971), Hopper’s ill-starred directorial follow-up to “Easy Rider.” The series continues Saturday with Monte Hellman’s revisionist western “The Shooting” (1966) and Robert Altman’s great psychodrama “3 Women” (1977), starring Sissy Spacek and the late Shelley Duvall. On Sunday, the HFA’s long-awaited “Melville et cie.” series begins in earnest with Jean-Pierre Melville’s “Le Deuxième Soufflé” (1966) and Robert Bresson’s “A Man Escaped” (1956). On Monday, the HFA presents a unique program titled “Figures of Absence: The Films of Dore O.,” a retrospective of experimental shorts from the groundbreaking German feminist filmmaker, hosted by film historian Masha Matzke. The sheer diversity of these films packed into a four-day period is a perfect illustration of what makes the HFA so wonderful – and how lucky we are to have it in our backyard.
