Rare film with Jim Morrison

[Les]

ok, whatever your thoughts about him, this rare clip turned up in 2005.
I was at first interested in what he looked like, then watching it,was completely amazed seeing how all the students looked like in this brief clip.

Film Depicts Jim Morrison While a Student

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Thirty-four years after his death, the state of Florida has found and restored what it believes to be the earliest film of Jim Morrison, shot in the early 1960s when he was a student at Florida State University.

In the FSU promotional film, Morrison plays a clean-cut prospective student who is denied enrollment at the school.

"We would like to accept you," Morrison's character is told. "Indeed, we'd like to offer more courses, more sections, but we just don't have the space - that together with the lack of professors."

"But what happened?" he asks. "How come my parents, and the state and the university didn't look ahead?"

Morrison, who became lead singer of The Doors, attended FSU before enrolling in UCLA's film school. He died in Paris in 1971 at age 27.

The black-and-white clip was discovered last year (2004) among films that WFSU, a PBS station operated by the university, donated to the state in 1989. It was recently posted on the state's film archive Web site after being digitally converted."

So, they were using Jim Morrison even before they created the rock music icon. Wondering how this clean cut, son of the agent orange admiral became a rock star? http://www.davesweb.cnchost.com/

Check out the Laurel Canyon Saga. You'll find the California rock and roll scene, Charles Manson and the Summer of Love didn't just happen spontaneously.
