The Doors
Leaving September 30
•
2h 20m
Directed by Oliver Stone • 1991 • United States
Starring Val Kilmer, Meg Ryan, Kyle MacLachlan
Oliver Stone applies his brand of fevered excess to the brief, incendiary life of Jim Morrison with this hallucinatory look at his turbulent, acid-fueled ascent and spectacular implosion. Embodied with uncanny precision by Val Kilmer, Morrison goes from Venice Beach bohemian to the Baudelairean poet-god of psych rock as the sensual, dangerously charismatic frontman of the Doors, pursuing a fascination with psychedelics, mysticism, and death that takes him to the edge of consciousness and beyond.
