When you're strange....

There's a new Doors documentary/movie out called 'When You're Strange'. I'm not sure if it's out in your city, but if not it's out on DVD on May 18th.

I bring this up as there's some incredibly good footage of Morrison driving around the desert in his Shelby Mustang. It's pretty startling. They've converted the old film footage to HD, and well, let just say it almost looks like it was just filmed.

I have heard a very good review of this film. They say if you are not a Doors fan you will be by the end of the film!

I'll have to buy the DVD! Very cool!

Sounds like it would be an enjoyable movie, at least to me. Thanks for the "heads up" Tom.

I've seen that Jim Morrison-made documentary before. I think you can find it on Youtube. For awhile, Morrison is driving alongside an early-Chevy II with a straight axle. Hey could you imagine that story: "Anyway, I'm cruising down the highway in my Chevy II Gasser lookin' for some action, and a '67 Shelby pulls alongside me with Jimm Morrison from The Doors driving it and......"!

I've been a Doors fan ever since 'Love her Madly' came out...hard to believe so many years have flown by since Jimmy split!.
