Synopsis

Lizard Queen is an evocative and haunting biopic that tells the life story of Pamela Susan Courson, the enigmatic woman who was the muse, lover, and tragic companion to rock icon Jim Morrison of The Doors. Set against the backdrop of the counterculture revolution of the 1960s and 1970s, this film explores the highs and lows of Courson’s tumultuous life—her rise from a free-spirited California girl to a central figure in one of rock and roll’s most iconic love stories. From the moment Pamela met Jim, the sparks of their relationship set off a firestorm of passion, creativity, and self-destruction. Lizard Queen will portray their electric but tortured bond, delving into the complexities of their addiction, the strain of fame, and the haunting presence of death. When Jim Morrison was found lifeless in a Paris apartment in 1971, it was Pamela who discovered his body, a moment that would change the course of her life forever. Three years later, at just 27, she too would succumb to the pressures of the rock-and-roll lifestyle. Through Pamela’s eyes, the film unpacks the myth of Jim Morrison, revealing him as both a genius and a man consumed by his inner demons, and Pamela as someone much more than the “Lizard Queen” or tragic muse often reduced to a footnote in his story. It is a powerful, emotional journey through the price of fame, love, and loss, showing the toll it took on a young woman who spent her life in the shadows of both the man she loved and the world that adored him.
