Thirty-four years after his death, the state of Florida has found and restored what it believes to be the earliest film of Jim Morrison, shot in the early 1960s when he was a student at Florida State University.
In the FSU promotional film, Morrison plays a clean-cut prospective student who is denied enrollment at the school.
Morrison, who became lead singer of the Doors, attended FSU before enrolling in UCLA’s film school. He died in Paris in 1971 at age 27.
