Val Kilmer played Jim Morrison in 1991's The Doors to great acclaim but was, alas, snubbed by the Academy. People are strange, eh? Yes, the movie's release was attacked by fans and former band members of The Doors for its alleged inaccuracies and exaggerations. But now, years later, were movie audiences just riders on the storm of bad press? Upon rewatch, does the Oliver Stone movie provide some truth among the spectacle? And was Meg Ryan the best choice for Pam? The Old Roommates attempt to light your fire with a revisit through their middle-aged lens. Join us for a sobering chat and a wild time.
