[MrAjh420]

0:28 face in the rock , eyes and nose .. or am i too stoned?

[BlushLikeBerries]

Everything they are recording must look a lot cooler on acid!

[1skullduggery]

i like the character development and plot points. screenplay must have taken hours to come up with.

[ummagumma00]

Ezekiel 17:14 ".....and Jesus sprung forth from the waterfall, with thy leather pants on, and found his coat, and hollered "Dude, where's my fucking car!??"

[1skullduggery]

it should be called: got this video camera, and don't know what to do...

[cremerdude]

@6669990 The Mohave desert.

[Diogenes1360]

And so the lone 20th century gunslinger begins his adventure into the unknown . . .

[ENTREELCENTENO]

@ThePercepcion se supone que por lo que he leido lo que quieras que represente para ti se supone que es una interpretacion abierta a las vivencias propias de cada persona para algunos es una cosa y para otros no lo es es lo que quieras que sea saludos

[kozmicblues14]

I wanna go swimming with Jim Morrison:) O.o I would wear Leather Pants and everything!

[itnow]

the beginning reminded me of 'the beach' (with Leonardo de Caprio)

but altogether I m afraid it's pretty boring;...sorry to say that exactly 40 years after he left

[spooke6]

Followersofdamu is a dumb bitch..

[JRFarrellbooks]

before there was reality tv, there was Jim Morrison.

[VictoryJenn7]

@JRFarrellbooks couldnt have put it better ahah :)

[kozmicblues14]

@JRFarrellbooks Jim Morrison is Better than Reality T.V::)

[Amanda58398]

Yo creí que "HWY" era una película que Jim filmó en la UCLA, cuando era un estudiante (antes de estar en The Doors)

El Jim Morrison de la película es el Jim Morrison que ya estaba con los Doors, dos años antes de fallecer.

Seguramente estoy confundiendo las dos películas, pero la primera parte es muy bella, sobe todo cuando él nada en ese arroyo.

La expresión de Jim siempre fue extraña: parecía tan calmado y taciturno, como si estuviese viviendo en otro mundo.

[dakota23750]

@ dvinedzine..i know right he is so amazing in whatever he does even if its just walking around not saying a word..how many people do we know that we can say that about?? miss you Jim <3

[Upeter2]

Sad to think that 2 years later he was sadly dead.

[clintonmount]

it looks like the kern river

[sethorren]

Hiking with Cowboy boots on.

[6669990]

anyone have any idea where that river is?

[TANRLYN1]

@6669990 IT IS TAHQUITZ CANYON IN PALM SPRINGS

[dawid160989]

What a musik in 3:58 ???

[sinceibeenlovingyou]

QUE SI ERES WOODY WEI

[szqsk8]

LOL! Jim swimmin' in his leather pants. Probably the only cleaning they ever got!

[ENTREELCENTENO]

dio crei que no encontraria el film de morrison y lo encontre al primer click ,gracias a "que no soy goody" por que el nombre por cierto

[sluchacz45]

gracias para esta pelicula!

[JoAqUiNBandit]

They need to polish up this footage so it looks as good as it did in "When You're Strange" and release it on DVD!

[mithagar]

@JoAqUiNBandit

if this footage is the profound original one, then the truth & essence will be captured in this shape only.

[zonilo1]

1:50 is that the same chanting from Alejandro Jodorowsky's film "El Topo"? It's even more ironic that Jim Morrison and El Topo look very identical with the leather attire (maybe Alejandro Jodorowsky was inspired by this film to make El Topo).

[glimmer2158]

Right over the hill is the Manson family.

[calirep1990]

what is this? did jim make this film????

[johnralex]

@calirep1990 yes jims movie

[FRSFreeStateES]

Only the Lizard King would go swimming in Leather Pants 

[gentry738]

when was thismade? between morrison hotel and la women?

[Finnstudios]

@gentry738 no the soft parade and morrison hotel

[ENTREELCENTENO]

@gentry738 much before the creation of the doors. then  jim meet ray´s

[CutClip]

@roger851

its crazy what the internet brings to us.... is this real?

[Snaffle]

i love that last clip so much

[67kneil]

i wonder if this is the same place in easy rider?

[67kneil]

how does one get a copy of this cant find it

[Smolley28]

@67kneil Its technically not legal,you cant get a "proper" copy of it; his "creative estate" never allowed this to be released.

Believe it or not, Pamela Courson's mother is the one who has the final say to this ever being released;during her lifetime anyway, the Morrison family has no say.

[67kneil]

@Smolley28 thanks for the info to bad people have to be selfish with media this movie is cool

[whatupBroski]

@67kneil it's on thepiratebay. search 'hwy'

[Forzanucci]

all i can think of Jim is , he got on the top of the mountain and said ( im done here, aint gonna slide down from here )

[compadre002]

who is filming jim morrison?

[Smolley28]

@compadre002 Paul Ferrara; you can look him up on Wikipedia. He filmed alot of what became "When Youre Strange".

[QuasiTraction]

I dig it, jim.

I wonder if he'd been alive if he would have liked "Vanishing point".

[eumelcrash]

I think Morrison was heavily influenced by Nietzsches "Zarathustra" here.",...

[1987Bateman]

Jim's really skinny on this vid

[jamesarongray]

Jim really was ahead of his time... he was even making utube vids back then!!!

[bamboosa]

thank you for the correction.

[rhiannoninthesky0]

This is kinda representing life, that's the way I saw it anyway, like what you thought when you saw this ilm is relating to your attitude toward life. Me, I wanted to skip, never saw the meaning of the scene, but eventually realised you had to be continuous, experience every second of the scene until the end where there would be closure, but no final conclusion. I dunno I'm bored :)

[barbycitty]

che gran figo sempre e comunque!!!!

[saulgonzalezflores]

he is jim?

[megakingpako]

I really wonder what would people think about this if it wasn't a Jim Morrison film...

[bamboosa]

the first scene is filmed at a grotto in the Angeles Crest Forest - I remember it as a teen from the sixties. Now it is strewn with so much garbage and graffiti you don't want to see it. The water is freezing. Probably dried up due to catastrophic global change. (No snow melt.)

[MiamiTribe]

@bamboosa gotta bring a gun with you these days up there huh?

[jonvil2009]

@bamboosa no you are wrong... I know where it was filmed. you are mistaken.

[jonvil2009]

@bamboosa @bamboosa no you are wrong... I know where it was filmed. you are mistaken. it was filmed at the present day Indian Trails over in Palm Springs.

[6669990]

@jonvil2009 ive ALWAYS wanted to go. where exactly is this???? if you may please inform me

[jonvil2009]

@6669990 sure it is right near palm springs...it is easy to find if you are familiar with the area.

[TANRLYN1]

@jonvil2009 ITS TAHQUITZ CANYON IN PALM SPRINGS

[backofthebluebus1]

this is unreal where did you find his film?

[TheAnnexGal]

Just going hiking now. Me, the beard, and my leather.

.

:)

[xterra43]

The Erotic Politician on a hiking trip. Wonderful.  He scaled that stream pretty well swinging on that branch...

[TheGradumate]

I think your fukn stoopid

[teo4lifeyesyesyes]

i think that was the only time that he wasn't high...

[szqsk8]

Actually, it was probably the only time those pants were ever cleaned! LOL!

[giovoltron]

ziii jim yeahhhhh arriba jim

[szqsk8]

Was he swimming in leather pants?

[runirvana]

thanke you!!!

[clauxxx13]

somebody can told me where this was recorded. thank you

[darkphoenix976]

mi piace tanto jim morrison ma sto film mi sembra un po' la corazzata cotionkin che obbligavano fantozzi a vedere!speriamo nelle altre 8 parti!

[cthommen3]

it's called Tahquitz Canyon about 5 min or so from Palm Springs

[HarryPalma]

i swam in that lake in the opening scene

[artu17ro]

where is that lake, l wanna swin there too...

[noobyloopy]

i had a pee in that lake in the opening scene

lets swim to the moon

[6669990]

@noobyloopy where is it

[LUSIA4EVER]

my favorite scene...:)

[hellnbk]

It's his favorite movie...Only Jim's interpretation...see Antonionie's Zabriski Point...then it will make sense.

[alra1975]

Tell them you came and saw and looked

into my eyes, and saw the shadow

of the guard receding

Thoughts in time and out of season

The hitchhiker stood by the side of the road

and levelled his thumb in the

calm calculus of reason

.....Words for hitchhiking with solitude.....

[mooiegarage]

Like your comments alra. Lot of people here say they don't get it... I think you got it.

[throughthespidersweb]

u bunch of fucks! ill show u

ull see

[muppetevil]

:D sta genial cn el simplemente hehco de ver a jim :D

[peterextremripoll]

la persiguagui?????

[bearsarecool33]

This makes perfect sense, if your mind is open to expansion>

[Jeet27]

As Jim said 'There is no story to it, it has no commercial appeal I don't think. It was just a test for future projects.' I really think he would have gone on to be a really great film maker. HWY was ahead of it's time in many ways and Jim was testing the waters with camera angles and capturing real life. Quite funny that he told his friend on the phone he had killed someone and his friend didnt know he was filming HWY and just acting lol.

[kaylatheindie]

One word.. AMAZING.

[RowanMartin68]

if you don't get the meaning/ lack of meaning of this movie, then you can't begin to fully understand Jim as an artist, or the Doors music.

[ELRICOWASHERE]

pienso que este filme es genial como todo lo que hizo, si esperas encontrar efectos especiales a la star wars, definitivamente aqui no.

[HippieSquirrel26]

GREAT MOVIE!!!!

[omarjoshi2]

una pelicula sin dialogos

que habla de muchas cosas :)

[GeorgSimmel88]

it remind me the movie "into the wild". good film i recommend to everyone !

[OrbisFilm]

all hail the lizard king

[satanicgall]

increible

[morrison9794]

Jim Morrison 4erever

[countrysinger1952]

Where was this movie made? It looks like it must be somewhere out west, which is one of my favorite parts of the country. I read the book, "No One Here Gets Out Alive" but I don't remember if it said or not.

[19555591]

Joshua Tree California

[MemphisBlueAgain]

Jim in his natural habitat of freakiness!

[Josephdpbrex]

Great.. Where do you find it?

As fans of Jim and Doors, we know about the bootlegg copies of this and other material like Feast of Friends, but the quality of the film is ok even is 40 years old!

Como lo dijiste..."otra faceta de este icono del rock".

Felicidades por este curiosisimo material.

[gavinlawson]

Wonder if Gus Van Sant saw this before making 'Last Days'. The opening of Van Sant's film bears a striking resemblance to this. i.e Swimming in the water fall, walking around a natural environment.

[hdp26]

let me say "last days" is a shit film documentary or any kind of media.I bought the dvd and its pretencious, pompous, false pose of introspectiveness, artless, and a rather long etc..it made me lose my time and money, just like 5 secs of that thing called last day: the scene of the girl wits her ass naked geting out of the bed cuz remembers of my girl going half naked going to bath after some good time.

I recomend 2 anyone 2 try catching on utube that part and avoid that tedioussonofabitch film

[saintsubversive]

How come you cut the original opening credits off, I think theyre kinda cool with the blaring siren sounds, very Scorpio Rising.

[doorsblues]

que buena peli

como si morrison hubiera caido del cielo no nonno que buena idea

lo que me gusto es que el casi no habla si no que todo lo que quiere decir esta en las tomas y en el drama de la pelicula

no necesitas palabras para entender el arte

[IrMiMaPi]

he seems to be stoned :)

[hoffajimmi]

i really could watch jim walking around all day gives off a real relaxing vibe for some reason.

[dvinedzine]

I could watch him all day, too. *wink*

[earthchild888]

yeah he'd be fun to spend time with!

[inogi339]

At some angles didn't look like Jim himself.

[denisebarlow1]

jim on a trip

[mr88mojorisin]

exelente la peli banda¡¡¡ chido por compartirla¡¡¡

la mera vibra¡?¡¡¡

[dvinedzine]

He's surprisingly nimble.

[MoshpitHell]
