    I don't believe it that finally make someone a vid about the super 8 film that JIM filmed before he died. It's sooo emotional to retraced the steps that Pamela & Jim did 51 years later.... It makes me want to cry... I love it........😍

    I love LA woman accompanying this video. Perfect for Pam. I’m a guitar player and our band covered this song. Our keyboard player passed away last year. I’m afraid our band will not play this wonderful tune again.😢

    I was waiting someone to finally do this wow, thank you for doing this my friend, we have better view onto that place now. Just a note, I like more the look from the time when Jim and Pam were there, with more greenery, now it's just an organized mud.

      It was beautiful back in the day but too much maintenance apparently. Also, there’s less room for trees as there are many more tombstones since ‘71. I knew the location but hadn’t physically confirmed it until last may.

    It's extraordinary that the cemetery looks the same after over 50 years. But time makes ghosts of us all . 🇫🇷. I wonder if anybody has ever filmed the grave of Jean de Breteuil. He died today 51 years ago, 25th June 1972, 22 ans, in Morocco 🇲🇦. I understand he is buried in the family vault, in France 🇫🇷

    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 :)

So I'm not sure there is a grave in the cemetery (but sometimes there is one even when there is a cremation). Anyway, thank you again ;)

    This is incredible! I mean, how did you get those images? I know the last Super 8 tape is the original with Jim's handwriting, but how did you make it? did you meet them? Are you related to Jim or Pam? Thanks for sharing this treasure.

    • @oneheadlight7172

      Glad you like it. Just took clips from the original super & that I have and spliced it with my footage from the cemetery. The handwriting on the plastic reel is Pams. The number 8 written on the sticker that is placed over Pam’s writing ion the reel s likely written by Jim.
      The writing on the film box is by Pam & her boyfriend after Jim died. I’m no relation. The super 8 was in hands of a long time collector before I got it.

    • @oneheadlight7172
      @oneheadlight7172  Рік тому +2

      The depth of field can play tricks. It is the same tomb but they’ve removed the decorative arch and added a level but the paint has completely worn off.
      If you stop the frame at the right spot you can see the top of the tombstone right in front of Pam, marking a ground level tomb, which is still there.
