Beautiful, moving film.

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Instead we have those 90 minutes of dull, empty movie ! I have never bend my knees to superstar, acclaimed artists so they have to prove me they do something really outstanding : here, i see nothing ! Sienna spends all the movie smoking, drinking, getting stoned, being immature and careless ! Based on the movie, i'm still wondering why Warhold is called an artist; sure he was original as he is totally numb, detached (and well played by Pearce); Fallon and Anakin Skywalker are funny co-stars and Sienna is really charming with 60s fashion but everybody is lost in a pseudo intellectual, hype movie that says, builds nothing, with no drama, no lines, no idea.. So it's a long music video that could have easily reduced to the famous 15 minutes !

No idea about the historical accuracy, but it was a fairly flat experience.Plenty of opportunity for set pieces, but none of them was interesting. Especially the confrontation between Warhol and Dylan - didn't get a single insight from it. Also the atmosphere was too ... reliable - it should create a nervous uncertainty.In the end the heroine was just sad and lost, no tragedy to it. I guess because she was essentially passive.The music was disappointing too.The actor playing Warhol was excellent - in interview he said he was surprised to hear he was a villain in the finished product. I agree with his approach - less of the judgmentalising, please.The pace is good and it all fits together, but overall underwhelming.

Movie is making everything into sentimental stories.Is Andy really a freak? Is Bob Dylan really that handsome?All this is not the concern, to make a movie is to make a story, the purpose is to make a beautiful story, who cares about truth?How can we learn the truth?History channel? Biographies? That will only be another version of a story, the question is, do we really care about the truth? or maybe, we human only like to hear a story.Hayden Christensen for Bob Dylan? I just don't get it :-(

Sweet, wide-eyed innocent Edie Sedgwick (a bravura performance by the lovely Sienna Miller) comes to New York City and falls under the charismatic spell of legendary audacious pop artist Andy Warhol (a deliciously brash portrayal by Guy Pearce). Sedgwick becomes a big star under Warhol's expert tutelage. But things eventually deteriorate when Edie falls for nice guy folk singer/songwriter Billy Quinn (a solid and likable turn by Hayden Christensen) and gets strung out on hard drugs. Director George Hickenlooper and screenwriter Captain Mauzer offer an admirably upfront warts and all depiction of the whole crazy Warhol factory scene that delivers a potent and provocative central message about how the fickle nature of fleeting celebrity can destroy someone. Moreover, Hickenlooper comes through with a vivid and flavorful evocation of the rampant anything-goes hedonism and experimentalism of the era. Miller really holds the picture together with her strong and captivating work as Edie; she astutely nails the fragile, troubled and wounded soul lurking just underneath Sedgwick's cheery and glamorous veneer. The rest of the cast are likewise excellent, with praiseworthy contributions by Pearce (his creepy and parasitic Warhol is nothing short of brilliant), Christensen, Jimmy Fallon as ruthless socialite Chuck Wein, Shawn Hatosy as Edie's loyal photographer friend Syd Pepperman, Mena Suvari as the impudent Richie Berlin, Beth Grant as Andy's proud, doting mother Julie, and James Naughton as Edie's square, incestuous father Fuzzy Sedgwick. Popping up in nifty bits are Illeana Douglas as fawning model agency head Diana Vreeland, Edward Herrmann as kindly family accountant James Townsend, and Colleen Camp as Edie's landlady. Michael Grady's dazzling cinematography makes snazzy occasional use of split screen and neatly switches between several different film stocks throughout. Edward Shermur's spare, melodic score does the trick and the spot-on groovy 60's soundtrack quite simply rocks. Well worth a look.
