It was in 1971 that Jim Morrison reached the summit! With 6 years of intensive career, 6 albums and 200 concerts, nothing seemed to stop the emblematic figure of the Doors.
And yet, the man we called the Dionysus of rock met a tragic end. Illustrated by numerous testimonies and archive images, we return with this report on the last days of this rock icon, consumed by the torments of a star's life.
Director: Michaëlle Gagnet

    The most intelligent film about Jim Morrison yet. Thank you.

    Had a really big poster of him in my bedroom. Im 72 and still have such memories of my life then with the Doors.
  • Je me souviens très bien ce matin de juillet 1971, quand la mort de Jim Morrison fut connue. J'étais étudiant en immersion anglaise à l'Université York de Toronto. J'avais 20 ans. Ce fut un choc que d'apprendre cette nouvelle, puisque c'était la 3e star rock qui décédait en quelques mois à l'âge de 26 ans (Jimmy Hendrix et Janis Joplin, décédés à l'automne 1970). Cet été là, "Riders on the storm" des Doors, était un hit à la radio. En soirée, une veillée à la chandelle a été organisée en son honneur sur le campus. Ce reportage me remue encore, 53 ans plus tard...😪

    My car, which had a broken radio for years, suddenly came to life as I was driving into Limon, Colorado. The radio was playing "Riders on tbe Storm". It was quite magical as I love the Doors. I did not realize the significance the song had for the band until now.
  • This is the best and most complete documentary of what were the last months and days of Jim Morrison.
  • @howwwwwyyyyy
    Seeing all the comments in different languages from all age groups shows you what an icon Jim Morrison was, immortal

    Είμαι Έλληνας μεγάλωσα με την μουσική των Doors και γενικά της ροκ μουσικής αλλά δεν ήξερα ποτέ για την επιγραφή στα ελληνικά που έβαλαν οι γονείς του στο μνήμα του.RIP JIM 😢

    Very very well done documentary. To hear the stories from John and Bill Siddons, plus, all the accounts of the various Parisians that were present during Jim's time in Paris really hammer down what might have truly happened with 'ol Jim. He never stood a chance of getting out there alive, unfortunately. Touching to see those photos of his ma and pa at his grave in '91. Sad but such is life. He lived it!

    The first time I saw Jim Morrison in leather pants was at Steve Paul’s ‘The Scene’ in NYC. Quite memorable in a small west side club in midtown.
  • @incognito595
    He was such a beautiful man. And had so much talent. What a tragedy.
  • @brendagroff8478
    I saw the doors in concert in Los Angeles and they were wonderful. Jim was beautiful. His voice was amazing. RIP JIM

    A beautiful man, a beautiful voice. Sad.
  • @overrooftops
    As Jim would have wanted, I remember him as much a poet as a great singer. I like all The Doors albums, but the ones where Jim shone the most were Strange Days and Waiting for the Sun. His soulful voice and alluring lyrics cannot be resisted. "When the summer's gone, where will we be?"
  • @robertmceuen3630
    L A Woman is one of my favorite albums. I played it hundreds of times over the years. I believe it to be one of the best albums in the history of music.
  • I think it is so sad that for all of Jim Morrison's fame and money and so-called friends, no one really cared about him.
  • @manonbassguitar
    Best documentary on Jim Morrison’s death. He had an obvious gastrointestinal bleed (very bad) which probably kicked off from liver failure/cirrhosis. Alcoholism can tear you up & spit you out, same as drugs.
  • @SetInStoneNow
    What a fascinating guy in such a fascinating time.
  • @missgvip
    This doc was exquisitely stitched. 🦎Long live The Lizard King!👑 He was 27 years young when he rode out of earth, a mere child by today's standards. Yet, he had lived many lives by then. Many , many lives..

    Mental illness strike the wealthy and artistic just as hard or harder than any. I always felt Mr. Morrison was on a different plane than the rest of us. As a lukewarm fan in my teens I never appreciated his music as much as I do now. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder at 36. It was sad when he passed away far too young; but his struggles were over and he is now at peace. 🌹
