VH1 Classic will air Oliver Stone’s 1991 flick The Doors on Tuesday at 7PM. The movie is more about Jim Morrison, portrayed wonderfully by Val Kilmer, and his nutjob antics than the band and their music which makes it an easy target for criticism. Meg Ryan, before she turned herself into a duck with plastic surgery, does a good job portraying Morrison muse Pamela Courson. The music, some of which Kilmer sang himself, is rocking and there is one helluva great fight scene that results in one messy Thanksgiving dinner.
