A man working the archives at FSU just posted on the site today some new old footage of Jim Morrison working as an actor in a promotional film for the school advocating expansion of the facilities. The film is titled "Florida State University: Toward a Greater University".

Jim plays a kid who gets rejected by the school and appears in two scenes (first one has a dubbed voice, second is real).

It's a blast watching this notoriously sleezy icon in a Leave It To Beave-esque film.

Enjoy!

Fantastic. Hard to believe in a few short years he'd be saying "Mother....I WANT TO MUH-HA-DE-WUER-A-HU-OOO COME ON, BABE!"

I wonder if FSU has his other Florida scene tucked away in their archives.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think Morrison's looks as if he's got a ten-foot-long trouser snake in the first scene?
