When Hollywood Turns Its Back on You - Val Kilmer

Val Kilmer was huge, if you are aged 40 - 55 he’ll always be one of the biggest movie stars. He also should have won an Oscar for either the doors or tombstone. He was on another level in both of those movies

I don't think anybody else could have played Jim Morrison the way Kilmer did. He truly embraced that role and morphed into him somehow!! Amazing work

Met Val K in London drinking a pint, bloody lovely person, very kind and considerate. Thanks Val!

I thought Vals depiction of Jim Morrison was stunning, but the biggest mystery to me, even to this day, is why Kiss Kiss Bang Bang was never a monster hit, It was such a great film

Dude should have won an Oscar for Tombstone tbh

Even if he was an asshole sometimes I think we can all agree he didn’t deserve cancer and to lose his voice

His role in tombstone might be my favorite movie character of all time.

I dont know man. He was a regular customer at a restaurant I managed for years. He dressed so people couldn't recognize him and he was super humble. Easy to talk to and we would chat for a bit most times he came in. Also met his kids and Ex. All very nice people every time I interacted with them.

Crazy that the final 'big' movie of his initial run, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, was actually very good. After a long series of awful movies that didn't end it.

As a kid, I felt Val's voice lent a good combination of gravitas and humanity to Moses. Its surreal to me that The Prince of Egypt where the film was a decent hit and he put in solid work as the lead character. He shaped up his work ethic after his leading man status faded, but still it makes you wonder what could have been.

The Ghost and the Darkness was always one of my favorite Val Kilmer films as a kid growing up. Really miss those days I always loved him in The Doors and Willow as well. Kilmer was one of my fav actors growing up. I think Val Kilmer played Jim Morrison very well

Val Killer is hugely talented his performance in The Doors, Tombstone and At First Sight is incredible

The Salton Sea is one of my favorite Val Kilmer films. Vincent D’Onofrio is also great in the movie.

I met Val after attending one of his Citizen Twain performances. He was so kind. I have no doubt he has behaved naughty at times, I cannot think of a person who hasn’t in their youth or when they feel they are on top of the world. Sometimes our money or popularity gets to our heads. Hopefully, he has grown out of that foolish behavior and can look back and teach other upcoming actors that everyone has a part to play in the movie industry and money or fame does not elevate anyone above another. But we still love you Val! ❤️💙💛💚🧡💜

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is criminally underrated..

Val's character in Real Genius was a whole way of life. Val turned the 80's into the 80's we know today, and brought it to life in that performance.

The feud with Sizemore was over Tom’s drug addiction. When they worked in Heat, Deniro went to Sizemores apartment and told him to get his ass in rehab or quit. He got better. The. In late 1998 he met Heidi Fleis and he became impossible even with Heidi showing up on sets and fighting Tom. Val was fed up with directors abuse and co stars ruining each shot

I met Val on the set of Red Planet in Sydney. He was a nice guy. He was having a fight with Tom Siezmore at the time. Those two hated each other and all their scenes together where shot separately and composited.

I don’t know what it is, but The Saint is definitely in my top 10👍🏻

Real Genius, Salton Sea, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang & Tombstone are three of my all-time favorite movies. Val Kilmer is Hollywood gold...always has been, always will be.
