The Doors - Movies
Poster Art From art.comThe Doors   1991     3 stars    R, 138 min.
Genre: Drama / Musical
Director: Oliver Stone  
Cast: Val Kilmer, Meg Ryan, Kevin Dillon, Kyle MacLachlan, Frank Whaley, Michael Madsen, Billy Idol, Kathleen Quinlan, Dennis Burkley, Josh Evans, Michael Wincott, John Densmore, Gretchen Becker, Jerry Sturm, Sean Stone

  Val Kilmer stars in this Oliver Stone movie about the late rocker, The Doors' front man Jim Morrison. As is often the case, Stone's work is unique. It not only tells the story, almost documentary style, of a beach boy-poet who turns into a self-destructive, obnoxious rock star. It is a good example of how fame is often a two-edged sword.
