The surviving members of The Doors claim that Val Kilmer did such a good job playing and singing as Jim Morrison that they could not distinguish his voice from the real Jim Morrison.
Robby Krieger, the guitarist in The Doors, insisted that the scene showing the band rehearsing "Light My Fire" makes this clear that he, not Jim Morrison, composed the song.
Closeup shots use Val Kilmer's voice, long distance shots use Jim Morrison's voice.
Ray Manzarek turned down Stone's many requests to help in the movie. Manzarek has since said that the movie is a horrible account of the history of the band.
Prior to production, Val Kilmer lived and breathed Jim Morrison for nearly a year, dressing in his clothes and hanging around his old haunts on Sunset Strip. Morrison biographer Jerry Hopkins says that he saw Kilmer one day when meeting Oliver Stone for lunch, using a payphone in the restaurant, and was so convinced that the first thought that entered his head was, "I'd forgotten how tall Jim was."
"Jim Morrison: Some of the worst mistakes of my life have been haircuts."
"Patricia Kennealy: What do you parents think about what you're doing? Jim Morrison: Actually, I don't remember being born. It must have happened during one of my blackouts. Patricia Kennealy: But they must have expressed some feeling? Jim Morrison: Well, to tell you the truth, they're not living anymore, so I really don't like to talk about that. Patricia Kennealy: Could you at least tell us how they died? Jim Morrison: It was a horrible car crash in the desert in New Mexico. In the fifties, my father ran into a truck full of Navajos. They were all over the highway, bleeding. Their souls kind of stirring in the breeze, just left in the mind. Patricia Kennealy: I'm sorry."
