Door to Where?

Rating: 7/10 (16 July 2012)

A lot of people (Ray Manzarek & Robby Krieger included... ) didn't like Oliver Stone's 'Doors' film, but I appreciated it, and it's one of the many movies I own. It's not just about the music, it does try to speculate about Jim's psychology as well, and whilst it may not be true, the blend of fact with hypotheses and outright myth does create an intoxicating aura that captures the spirit of what life might have been like during Jim's phase of intense drug use...
Sections of it are really trippy, even though I've always watched it straight... so, if you like the idea of The Doors music blended with weird and evocative ideas, then it could well be your thing...
