HWY - An American Pastoral - By Jim Morrison


THE INFAMOUS "LOST" EXPERIMENTAL FILM OF
JIM MORRISON

Not only is it the Holy Grail for serious Doors collectors,
it is also a film with appeal to fans/students of 60s experimental
and counterculture films (in fact, it is one that will have more
meaning to them that it will the average Doors fan).

A piece of cinematic history that DESERVES to be seen!!

As far as a plotline, there isnt much of one,
but some of the images are fantastic,
and
the soundtrack is also impressive in its use
of (non-Doors) music and various
natural sounds.
I thought I could detect elements of
Antonioni (long
unbroken
takes in a surreal desert setting), Warhol
(long unbroken takes in which
nothing appears to be
happening), and even
Kenneth Anger (black leather).
