I know that I have been slacking with my week of "movie-a-day" since earlier in the week, but Ive been extremely busy as of late... However.. I have found the time to make-up for everything by posting the remaining selections for my week.... First... I plan on beginning with what has to be one of the best portrayals of a musician ever... Thanks again to my friends at Amazon.com for the following:
Personal Note:
I rented and watched this film w/my great-aunt and grandmother when it initially was available on video.... My great-aunt really enjoy it, however, my grandmother thought some of the rather torrid risque scenes were too graphic, that she immediately stopped watching it.....
Anyways.... I never witness an actor get so immensely immersed into a role such as what Val Kilmer did.... You would literally think he was the Lizard King himself.... To even have his chin reconfigured proves what sacrifices that Kilmer was willing to resort to..... It was all worthwhile since Oliver Stone's depiction of the Doors sudden rise to fame and Morrison's demise was very accurate.... Otherwise.. the surviving Doors wouldnt have been willing to assist the actors nailing down everything to the manner that they managed to do.....
the Doors is obviously meant for a mature audience (unless there is some edited version out there), but what would expect if you lived the life that Jim Morrison did? Otherwise.... it wouldnt be soo accurate of a representation.....
Does one have to be an avid fan of Morrison or the Doors music in general? Not necessarily.... especially if you're very interested in that era's culture and everything that surrounded it....... the Doors is one of those movies you can see over and over again without it ever losing its meaning.....Mainly because Morrison's legacy alone will never cease... but also the remarkable performance by Kilmer makes you do a double-take to literally think that he is indeed Morrison himself...
