This documentary provides the first detailed record of the band’s early years, between their initial performances – playing in the corridors of UCLA Film School – and Jim Morrison’s tragic death in Paris.
Filmmaker Tom DiCillo brings together plenty of hitherto unpublished film material; his film shows The Doors in the studio, backstage and performing on stage.
The documentary also makes mention – how could it not – of Jim Morrison’s legendary excesses: fame, drugs, sex and alcohol. The film’s focus, however, is the uncompromising artistic vision of four musicians who, in just six albums in five years, succeeded in making a formidable contribution to the history of pop culture.
