Feast of Friends

As a lifelong Doors fan this film provokes contradictory feelings as a film it is really badly made and does not seem to be finished . It is disjoined and lacks any sense of narrative cohesion. It tells you very little about the Doors as Individuals. If you think I'm being harsh , the Jim Morrison, biography , No One here gets out, biography reports this film getting catcalls when it premiered .And the reviewers at the time were equally harsh. No wonder it was never properly released. The reasons it is so bad is because rather hire an experienced big name director and cinematography they chose Jim's old film school buddies, and drinking pals, Paul Ferrara, and Frank Liscandro .Even as a student film this is really bad. I'm puzzled that Jim and Ray who were film school graduates did not seem to realize how bad this film is. Now as a historical document this film is valuable, brief and disjointed as it is it does convey some sense of what the Doors peak years were like.
