Jim Morrison super 8 film of Pam Courson in Corsica, France cemetery 1971 Part 1
Переглядів 312 тис.3 роки тому
Jim Morrison shot this super 8 film of Pam Courson during their 10 day tour of Corsica, France in mid May 1971. Only ever written about in Patricia Butler’s book Angel Dance & Angels Die this film has never been shown publicly until now - Sept 20, 2021. “On everyday it rained but one. Pamela said it was idyllic.” This film was shot on that one sunny day. Jim may have watched this film on the ni...

    I just watched Jim's original film, a real treasure, and now this Part 2 follow-up of a visit to the same place 50 years later is one of the best finds on the Internet as far as I am concerned. @oneheadlight7172, I am amazed you even found the right cemetery, not sure how you did that. But moreover, I am gobsmacked at how you were able to match things up and literally stand in Jim's footsteps, while filming them. It is nice to see that so many of the photos, crosses, etc, have survived. So much is as it was although it seemed greener, more inviting back when they visited. But you were even able to match up a tree stump to a tree that was there at the time? Just amazing work! I feel that the rest of us are lucky indeed that you came into possession of Jim's film. Thank you so much for sharing with us. Would love to hear any of your stories about how you found the cemetery or any of the things in it. The whole thing must have been quite an adventure. I know I can feel like I've done a major accomplishment just by finding someone's grave in a cemetery I know they are in, LOL. Hats off to you. And do you have any more projects like this in mind?

    Pretty disrespectful to be filming, dancing and flailing around on hallowed ground. It’s really not cool to have a play date at the cemetery. Why do so many talented ppl have to be such assholes?

    This footage is both erie and romantic. Jim had many facets. He was rage and sex. He was intellectual and brutish, peaceful and unsettling. Pam may have been his muse. I can't help but feel sad to see her skipping through the cemetery and how each of them felt so comfortable and secure among the dead. Surely they both understood that the course they were taking was leading towards an untimely end. Maybe in this moment the fame and the pressure of the persona of being Jim Morrison as the public came to know him faded away and he felt some level of bliss looking at his love through the lens. Maybe a message being sent that it would only be through the escape of death that they might feel free enough to enjoy each other in that way. I find the location of the cemetary interesting as he pans in and out of focus on Pam and the images of the head stones. I dont know really, but theres something more they're expressing here.

    Woooow man I just asked in an other vid with the short film by Jim where exactly in Corsica it was shot, and BAM I click on your vid now :) I mean, I know Corsica, but first, I was thinking that maybe Pam and Jim were inside Ajaccio cemetery, and now after having seen your film and the beginning with the sea soooo close to the cemetery, I understand it is clearly NOT Ajaccio, but still can't put a precise name on the place !!! So can you help me with more info please ???? Thanks a lot in advance ;) VIVA JIM MORRISON :)

    I'm a fan of Jim and I find fascinating and poetic this short film :) I know Corsica but was wondering where exactly it was shot ! Does anyone know ?? Is it the Ajaccio cemetery ? Somewhere else in Corsica ?? And by the way, what were doing Jim and Pam in Corsica in may 1971 ? I mean, was there a peculiar reason for this trip and this destination ?? If someone can give me more info I would really appreciate thanks in advance !!!!! :)

    It’s wild how different she is from Courtney Love. His death was her fault but it was an accident and she couldn’t control a mad man. , He was alone at the Circus and the drugs must’ve came early for some reason, it was all a bad coincidence. His body was in bad condition at that point and he couldn’t bounce back alive like some of the grunge artists did. The grunge guys barely drank and Jim drank more than anyone

    Jim and Pam. They were star crossed lovers at first, vexed by fate to sit so close yet so far from each other. The years eventually led them into each others arms however. Despite Roy, Michael, Dwight, and all the other co-workers and shenanigans, they still lived happily ever after
