About The Gate Band

The biographical film of the doors band (the doors), I don't know why it was translated into the city of fire and music. Just looking at the title, I really don't understand what the film wants to say. It is far less eye-catching than the literal translation. Since I prefer rock music, I have a soft spot for rock movies. I will try my best to collect as many rock movies as possible. Based
on my knowledge of Jim Morrison and the Gate Band, I feel that Oliver Stone has a passion for Jim. Morrison worshipped somewhat. Morrison is a very controversial character. While he is extremely indulgence, words and deeds, and moral and law intolerance, he is also an idealist who pursues his life as a poet at all costs. After watching this film, I have to admit that Stone has a good grasp of Morrison's character. The rhythm of the film is relaxed and the atmosphere is warm enough, especially when Jim sings light my fire, the whole audience falls into a frenzy. Similar to a born homicide, Stone attributed Morrison's thought development process to the guidance of the spiritual Indian. This Indian who died in a car accident always appeared in Morrison's imagination, accompanied by Jim's creation.

Their psychedelic poetry, Jim’s improvisations and even sexual aspects were very different from other psychedelic bands in the United States at the time. There is no indication that they have any band shadows. It can be said that the style of the band depends entirely on Morrison’s mind. The illusion produced. Although the band has such a deep Morrison brand, it cannot be said that this band is Jim's one-man band. Even when Morrison was very popular, they always acted collectively, and the other three were willing to do it. Jim’s supporting role prevents the door from splitting like other bands. These are well reflected in the film.
In addition, I have to mention that the actor Val Kimmer who plays Jim Morrison, in order to play this well For the role, he carefully studied Jim's poems and imitated Jim's speech movements. Even after the filming of the film for a long time, he could not get rid of Jim's role. It is because of Val Kimmer’s hard performance that we were able to see such a brilliantly shaped Jim
