The Doors Ceara: 'Additional Scenes The Doors (1991) The Movie'

Source:The Doors Ceara- Val Kilmer, as The Lizard King Jim Morrison.

"People listen me: youtube is deleting all video that contains audio copyright. The fault is not mine!"


This scene right here is from the studio session from Oliver Stone's The Doors (1991) where the band is together, including The Lizard King Jim Morrison (played by Val Kilmer) and he's drunk and not performing well. The producer and director gets on him about that. They keep cutting parts of the session, because Morrison is so off and he gets frustrated with that and comes out of the booth and they have a big argument. And then things calm down after Morrison sees his girlfriend Pam Courson (played by Meg Ryan) and she gives him a blow job in the booth and they finish their music.

If you watch The Doors 1991 DVD, which I recommend there's a documentary on it about about the 1991 Doors movie, but also about the real Lizard King Jim Morrison, they interview Doors piano player Ray Manzarek and he essentially says: "Jim Morrison was more than a wild man in skin-tight leathers." Which of course was true, but his rocker/cowboy wardrobe and attitude was a huge part of The Lizard King and attitude. 

During that 1966/67-69 period Jim Morrison was seen everywhere in his black and sometimes brown skin-tight leather jeans, cowboys boots and concho belt, as well as his black leather suit jacket that he wore with his leather jeans. He obviously performed practically everywhere in that outfit, he did interviews, he partied, he traveled, in his free time he wore those pants and boots. 

That is what Oliver Stone picked up upon when he put together his 1991 movie about Jim Morrison. He has about a hour of footage in a two-hour and twenty-minute film about Jim Morrison (with Val Kilmer playing Morrison) in his patented skin-tight black leather jeans and cowboys boots, as well as concho belt. Performances, interviews, parties, even at weddings and churches. You see The Lizard King in his famous Lizard King uniform. The superhero of rock and roll.
