  • This film had nothing in the least to do with the real Edie Sedgwick or Andy Warhol. It was a cheap rip-off. Once again, someone was trying to make some quick money out of legends like Andy and Edie. If someone wants to know something about the real Edie, they should read Jean Stein's biography "Edie: American Girl", edited by George Plimpton, that was published in 1982. That's the real deal.

  • i haaaatteee deep voice overs. :(

  • i wish the soundtrack was available. i love the sad melody that plays at the end of the last shot of Edie.

  • idiots. they made bob dylan look nothing like himself. although the rest of the actors look convincing.

  • i heard that lou reed hated the movie.

  • Please bare in mind that this movie has twisted the truth almost completely for artistic benefits- the story of Edie and Andy  did not play out htis way - she was not as loyal to him in real life. Nevertheless, I think this movie is fantastic; it totally captures life of this period in time, and I wish we could all experience it again for (my) generation.

  • my FAVE movie

  • Guy Pierce, is amazing as Andy Wahol.

    great actor.. ;)

  • This Edie can't compare w/ the real Edie either in appearance or in fashion and demeanor . *sigh*

  • True true but no one could be you better then you either.... Seinna Miller did a phenomenal job though... Edie Sedgwick's brother said they couldn't have picked anyone better!!

  • whose the director of the film?

  • George Hinkenlooper, check out Uncut Factory Girl

  • Actually I don´t speak english, but I´m gonna try. There´s something in Andy Wargol that makes me impossible to hate him, but at the same time I know that he, not at his start, but when he was a star already, it was all he cared about. On the other way, he created great thins and he was innovational. I think he has son psichological problems, but what great artist hadn´t, and what would they had been without them.

  • come si chiamano le canzoni che si sentiono nel trailer

  • quella verso la fine é life on mars di david bowie, un grande :D

  • as they call the songs that we are in the trailer

  • Edie Sedgwick fans were waiting years for her story to end up on screen. I think it was a pretty good attempt.

  • andy warhol was a complete dick. yeah sure his artworks were great and he had a real eye for art but he was a jelous asshole! some of the things in this movie wernt exactly true but they wouldnt have bothered making the film unless most of it was based on a bit of fact. other than that.. i liked it. and hayden and sienna are amazing.
  • Amen. Someone else sees Andy for what he is. I'm an Art major & grew up thinking he was great. Then I realized I believed the same crap everyone believed. Andy was innovational at the start of his career. But then he became obsessed with being a celebrity than artist. half the stuff he 'created' others created for him (ie, the silkscreening process). He also couldn't direct & had this odd relationship with his mom. When she died he kept telling his bro to give her a cheap funeral. He was a prick

  • fuck you ANDY IS THE BEST!!!

  • Sheesh, chill out. Andy was awesome at the start of his career but then he went into captalist mode & was concerned with being a celeb than artist. He had other guys do his screenprints even (this from video of him in his "studio"). Keep in mind, this is also the same guy who kept telling his bro if their mom's funeral's cost CHEAP after she died, which he did NOT attend.

    Oh yeah... Andy is just "awesome" >_>

  • agreed andy was a terror

  • Life on mars fits the trailer perfect

  • Time machine may have been a commercial flop but Guy was still good in it!!! I just love Guys acting!

  • omg...that was one of my fave nostalgic flicks..

  • LOL, I totally freaked out when I saw who played Anydy. Guy Pearce??? O_O I didn't recognize him! He is soooo cool. I don't like his character, but damn, Guy portrays him very awesome-like. ^_^

  • she did have a relationship with bob dylan though? i'm sure there is evidence, a number of his songs are written about her. look at the lyrics to 'leopard-skin pill-box hat' and 'i want you' infact, go and listen to 'like a rolling stone'

    yeah she did have a relationship with bob neuwirth as well, it's on wiki most likely, i don't know everything but that's what i have come to.

    i was impressed with the film, whether or not some of it was fabricated, sienna miller did a great job as edie.

  • I am sorry to say that when I watched the movie I was quite mad cause most of it is bull! The facts are all mixed up and there is no evidence of her relationship with Bob Dylan it was his best mate Bob Neuwirth!!! Its just a fabrication to create more publicity...

  • i loved this movie, he was SO GOOD! and she sounded JUST like edie, it was great. i hate those haters, this was a goo dmovie.

  • in some scenes, sienna looked just like edie i wanted to cry.

  • Guy Pearce really shines when he is in truly independent films and not doing those boring commercial flops like "The Time Machine". Good job...

  • I AM EDIE

  • i couldn't get enough of this movie...but in the end it tells you...she died of an overdose at age 28...why would you want to be like her? i am obsessed w/ the way she looked...but definately not who she was. the same goes w/ marilyn monroe.

  • did andy warhol and edie sedgwick have a relationship, besides her being his muse????

  • Warhol was gay !

  • it was some sort of relationship. it was metaphysical rather than physical love.

  • omg i want 2 see this so badly

  • Well you're the boss,

    applesauce!

    :D

    Best part!

  • this film inspired me!

    i would of loved to have met both andy and edie!

    love to them

    and to all of u

    xxx

  • they should have made a movie about edie's entire life starting from her childhood. i guess its too late to do that now since this came out. sienna miller did a really good job though. they should have kept more with the truth instead of playing out this bob dylan character

  • SCREW EVERYONE WHO HATES THIS MOVIE. I FUCKING LOVED IT. Although the movie trailer doesn't have the same mood that the actual movie.

  • This is an exceptionaly good movie to all those out there who may nay-say it.

  • NOT SIENNA shes a useless actress and didnt have the beauty Edie had, Too English plain.

  • I thought Sienna was a beautiful Edie!

    very different, but she wasnt meant to impersonate Edie, she's just a lot like her modern contemporary; quirky sense of style, pretty face. thin, and I thought she was amazing. nobody was ever going to do a better job of doing Sedgwick justice.

    In some ways Sienna better, more together and grown up, Edie Sedgwick, especially in her films, looks so thin it's painful, and she looks like a child because of it.

  • It seems like a lot of people these days are really nostalgic for the Factory scene. This move is case in point... I even read on the JuliB website that Bond No.9 is making a 'Factory inspired' perfume.

  • I can't wait, I want to see this film!!!

    But in my little town is not possible...

    the cinema prefers to show stupid and super commercial movies!!!

  • I hate this film because they portray Andy & Bob as total asswholes & Edie as an Inocent girl which is complete bullshit because she was already messed up when she showed up she just became worse cause of the whole 60's scene ect.

  • yeah...keira looks more like Edie but I don't think that she could play Edie as good as Sienna did. cuz Sienna has a similar style and she's a fashion icon,"it"girl as Edie was...

  • Wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Sienna iss EDIE

  • i think that keira knightly looks more like edie than sienna does. even looking at pics of edie i think that she and keira look a lot alike. keira eyes and smile look more like edie's than sienna's, not that sienna didn't do well, just that keira may have been a better choice.

    also, they should have used more makeup on sienna, would have helped her look more like edie. more fake eyelashes would have really helped!

  • Life on mars fits the trailer perfect

  • What a shit trailer. I've seen the movie and I hate how trailers make the film out to be something it's not. The movie is great, the trailer is too showy.

  • hayden is fucking hot in this movie

  • listen to edie sedgwick's voice, and listen to sienna miller's when she plays her. it is basically that EXACT same. sienna was the best choice for the movie. guy pearce was amazing as andy warhol too.

  • wow it was amazing. can someone tell me what is that song called at the end of the video ?

  • the song is life on mars by david bowie

  • I saw the movie today and I gotta say I really liked it. Sienna Miller was great. Her performance was really good.

  • its supposed to "resemble" bob dylan..like hayden was like a bob dylan character in the movie. the reason why they didnt mention his name in the movie and put his name in the end credits is because they werent sure if edie and bob were dating or actually had a fling.....plus bob dylan didnt want his name in there cuz he didnt want ppl to think HE was the one responsible for edies death...

  • but not bad at all.

    I don't know why people were so unhappy with it, maybe because they fall into the trap of being superfical assholes themselves. ya know what I mean? People want to buy into warhol...

  • dude, he was shallow, that was the point of his exsistance!

    The movie is rediculessly sad. (kind of like how I spell, lol)

    It was really sad.

  • such an awesome looking movie, but it turned out pretty bad

  • I agree, I read every book on Warhol and they depict as non caring aloof,its true he didnt babysayt antone at the factory but he really was a true to hes art and more important the business of art

  • what is the song playing at :53 ?

  • blockbuster has factory girl. plenty of copies! thats where i went to go rent the movie.

  • Where can I go to rent this movie? I went to Hollywood Videos and they don't have it! Any suggestions? I really want to see this movie before I decide to buy it.

  • netflicks maybe? seriously fuck hollywood video.

  • I assume you had bad times at Hollywood Videos...?

    Well, thank you for replying back. It took awhile..

  • i'm just an indie snob ;-p

    i finally saw the movie last night and i was seriously disappointed. it was just kind of blah and left me with a similar feeling to listening to two hours of brian jonestown massacre.

  • Ah, I see.

    Yeah, I heard Factory Girl wasn't such a 'great' movie, but I'd like to see it anyway, but I don't think I'd like it much either.

  • yeah its worth it if you like warhol. but as a warhol fan, you might feel it paints a rather shallow and petty picture of the guy. i don't doubt that he lacked people skills but they kind of made him up to be a cold hearted bastard. they really fixated on his skin disorder and 'the dark side of andy'

    ...cheasy.

  • Oh, really?? Cheasy indeed. I like Warhol's work, but I'm not really into him, although people I know think I'm obbsessed with Andy, but it's just his artwork I really like!

    I mainly just wanted to see this movie so I'd know more about Edie, in a 'human' way. Did Sienna Miller do a good job being Edie?

  • sienna was probably the best part. =)

  • Oh, ok. A lot of people said she didn't do good/didn't look much like Edie. But, she looked a lot like Edie and I'm glad she did good! God, I GOT to watch this movie!

  • yeah you got to, i thought she was a poor choice but i was amazed, nobody could have done it better, if you watch the old warhol movies with edie in them, siennas likeness to her is unbelievable, she should have got an oscar for it.

  • I love that movie! I love sienna!

  • who is hayden in the movie?

  • bob dylan <3

  • is that supposed to be dylan? he sure acts and talks like dylan. why isn't his name on imdb?

  • to the ppl who are hating on hayden christensen i mean just give the guy a break. okay so he was like a bob dylan figure...but not quite! i remember in an interview wit the director, he said that his character is more of a nick jagger AND bob dylan mix!! not all bob dylan. they just put musician...so its not haydens fault! if you think hes such a bad actor, then why go rent Life As A House, then maybe you will change your mind, cuz he was nominated for a Golden Globe for crying out loud!

  • i loved this movie. sienna miller ws truly amazing in it. her voice was wonderful like the real edie. and she looked the part more than any other actress. even guy pearce as andy warhol was wonderful. amazing acting by the two. does ANYONE and i mean ANYONE know the song that 1st plays at 00:26??????? can you PLEASE tell me!! thanks.

  • What is the song that is playing when Andy sees Nico for the first time?

  • I like the way the fella playing A.W. says: "You're the boss, applesause!"

  • what is the name of the first song on here does anyone know?

  • amazing movie.

  • terrific movie

    watch it.

  • WAS THIS MOVIE ANY GOOD???

  • yeah very good and sienna was amazing in it

  • looks cool. guy pearce is totally channeling johnny depp via willy wonka...

  • hayden christensen is the only reason im seeing this movie...

  • he's gay.

  • at least he's not a homophobic prick?

  • yea..so?

  • andy warhol is so over-rated

    fuk this generation

  • the movie isn't about andy warhol. it's about edie sedgwick's life.

  • fuck YOU

  • BAHHAHA

    i like andywarhol

    its just that these little kids

    claiming they are pop artist and

    put andy warhol as their idol

    and fuk up....

    mmmhhm

  • one question:

    did Edie actually got to meet Andys mom, or is it just movie bullshit?

    anybody knows???

  • at the scene where she meets bob dylan David bowies-Life On Mars starts to play..is that the one you're asking about?

    but..VenusInFurs, hearing you say its shit, like i was scared it would be but im also really wanting to see it, should i? or will it just ruin my image of edie for life?

  • This movie was total crap but, Sienna Miller and Guy Pearce did an AMAZING job! Too bad they had such a sh*t script. It's one thing to take liberties but quite another to make stuff up.

  • Hayden Christensen has a cute New York type of accent in the movie. ;D

  • and..omg at 00:54 is that uhmmhumkumm THE GIRL FROM AMERICAN BEAUTY?!? i just lost her name but..is she meant to be moe tucker or something in the movie? cos she hell looks like it..

  • mena suvari and she is supposed to be richie berlin

  • Nope it's on imdb :] 5'4

  • This movie is true nostalgia love.

    Amazing.

  • this film is to be perfectly frank, rubbish. the reason they picked sienna miller to play her is they wanted someone pretty and slim. it saddens me that this is the first and possibly last glimpse most people will get of edie sedgwick. if you want a true glimpse and a good film watch ciao manhattan.

  • does anybody know the first song that plays ?

  • hayden christensen is a talented actor

  • lou reed hated it before it was even filmed.

  • Kiera Knightley would be way too tall Edie was small 5 ft 4 to be precise.

  • No way!! She was at least 5'6" - 5'8"

  • i can hardly wait till it comes out on dvd

    love this

  • i saw it online, it's not bad. but!

    1. hayden as "bob dylan"....the worst casting job ever.

    2. the whole edie and warhol is captured well. but i don't agree with the whole edie and 'the bob dylan' ordeal. you can't base a large part of the movie on a relationship that you don't have the details to/don't even know really existed.

  • where did u see the movie?? please tell me i cant found it

  • its just came out on the seventeenth

  • Blockbuster bought the rights to it. Find it there if not elsewhere.

  • the song used throughout the second half of the trailer is called "Life On Mars?" by David Bowie from the album "Hunky Dory"

    when does the DVD come out exactly??

    my mom would frek if she ever would see me watching this

    hahaha!!!!

  • I LOVE YOU, HAYDEN!!!

  • whats the song called?

  • I think that if Keira Knightley(sp.?) was more graceful, she could've made an excellent Edie. They look quite alike.

  • i think it comes out on dvd in like mid-june

  • when does it come out on dvd?

    please someone tell me.

    :] thanx

  • Actually, Warhol was gay, so it wasn't really your conventional love triangle.

  • i heard katie holmes was gonna play edie but dropped out? i dont think she looks anything like edie sedgwick!

  • Katie Holmes play Sedgwick. She hasnt got the grace or presence. Its a joke to think they thought of Katie, I think it was just rumored, and if that were to happen that way there would be allot of pissed off people

  • Thats what i first thought too when i heard that a long time ago. But after looking at old pictures back when katie used to smile naturally they do have a smiliar smile.

  • i love this movie! and i cant think of a better cast to portray each character. props to the film <3

  • guy peirce = great

    hayden = crap ( i usually like him too)

    sienna = crap

  • Yeah, but Sienna looks just like Edie Sedgwick, a striking resemblance, so it balances out a little.

  • if you find hayden to be a bad actor, you must have not seen shattered glass

  • i havent seen shattered glass and i dont think hes a bad actor.

  • I didnt even know of Edie until just a matter of days ago but after looking at pictures of her she reminds me of a girl i once knew,same baby face,same turned up button nose,same beautiful deep brown eyes,and same totally OTT addiction to heroin and other drugs.what is happening...

    You once said to me.i dont mind dying as long as there are drugs in heaven....

  • it's sad when the trailer is so much better than the actual movie. miller and peirce were brilliant, but darth vader as a wanna be dylan come on.

  • just cause hayden christensen sucked in star wars doesnt make him a completely bad actor, give the boy a chance

  • It is! It took me FOREVER to figure that out and then I finally realized that it IS David Bowie. I hadn't heard that song in years and I LOVE it. It's called "Life on Mars".

  • whats the song at the end, it sounds like david bowie?

  • his name was bob neuwirth i really cant stand siena miller but i must admit that in parts she looks a little bit like edie

  • Whoever the hell was playing Bob Dylan in this movie needs to be taken out back and shot, it was an absolute disgrace. I can't figure out how they managed to make such a terrible movie about such interesting people. You'd think there would be more than enough REAL history to make a worthy movie.

  • Hayden should have been shot long ago, perhaps at birth.

  • amen to that! perfectly said.... How in the hell did they make such a crap movie, based on a story of people that lived such interesting lifes!

  • I'll give this movie one thing; Sienna really does look like Edie in it. It's actually a little bit spooky at times. But that's pretty much all the positive things I have to say about it.

  • Hayden Christensen as Bob Dylan is simply offensive. But Guy Pearce might be interesting playing Warhol... I'll have to wait months til it gets to Spain anyway :S

  • Guy Pearce looks nothing like Andy Warhol!

  • the point is to act like Andy Warhol, not to look like him.

  • when is it coming out?

  • it looks interesting...

  • this film is miscast from top to bottom.

  • this movie is going to suck ass who would cast hayden christensen as bob dylan it looks like a joke

  • can i buy it as a dvd in europe? ^^

  • boo.

  • Andy Warhol was a character of his own, and this movie looks great, im gunna see it just to see hayden as dylan and how dylan is played (HUGE BOB DYLAN FAN)and to those who thought he was a weird prick and too richm you can go f yourselfs, no one is weird, and you dont know if hes prick or not, have you guys met? NO! so we dont want to here your ignorant opinions of someone you know nothing about!

  • Hayden did HORRIBLY as the Bob Dylan character. The guy isn't really supposed to be just Dylan, but a compilation of several people. But Hayden really did a bad job, because he's just an awful actor.

  • you saw the movie?

  • yes. it's very innacurate, but I liked it when I stopped comparing it to what really happened.

  • This is an embarassing.

  • what is the last song?

  • Its Life on Mars by David Bowie

  • apparently they got the story all wrong and Bob Dylan was trying to prevent the film from release because it portrayed him as the dominating reason for Edie's "suicide". Edie kicked on for ages after breaking whatever she had up with Dylan.

  • She didn't even really date Dylan, she just had a huge crush on him. She didn't stop being crazy about him until she found out he had gotten married in secret. She did date his second hand man, I forget his name though.

  • warhol was a rich scenester prick.

  • no hes the god of rich scenester pricks ;-p

  • its so hard to find a person who can do the warhol role...hes too special for his great art

  • looks completely fantastic

  • warhol was a wierd lil prick, prolly the inspiration for the term poser!

  • LAME!
