So Sad

Rating: 8/10 (8 February 2020)

I'm a HUGE fan of the Doors. Jim and Ray were musical geniuses.
Val Kilmer's performance is unbelievably excellent. It's a travesty that he was not nominated for an Oscar.
I was a bit disappointed in the way Oliver Stone put this movie together. It's hard to place my finger on specifics, but I would have expected better.
The movie made me so sad. Jim and I were born in the same year. I was in California in the 60's. I understand that time ... yet it makes me very sad. Such a great talent, totally consumed by alcohol and other drugs. Pam is not well developed in the film but her story is equally sad, killing herself with an overdose 3 years after Jim killed himself.
I'm a forever fan of the great, but foolish, Jim Morrison.
