Super rare film from
1969 with Jim Morrison.
The camera follows Jim around doing all kinds of stuff, Great
sountrack. A Must for any Doors fan.
Review:
Like the man himself, HWY: An American Pastoral is complex
and mysterious. He hits the road like Kerouac, wandering, searching
for meaning.
Morrison's Mustang Cobra cruises the highways of a forgotten
America, the unknown lurking behind every rock edifice and cactus
that dots his journey. He's almost like Caine in Kung-Fu, except
the Asian landscape is now America. Jim Morrison is on the
spiritual warpath.
To see the mind of the poet at work without his bandmates is
a rare gift. Jim and The Doors are/were inseperable, but this
little magna carta on freedom shows us his solitary genius and
glorious madness.
The soundtrack is eerie, unsettling, not quite right. But
considering the artist at the heart of the film, I'm not surprised.
HWY is very special. Every frame reminds the viewer that there was
a man in the late 60's of immense power who dared to search for the
unknown, who attempted to shake up America with words and images.
He tried to tempt the gods as it were, like Loki, a man on a
mission.
An American Pastoral is proof.
