at 1:33 "i have to go and shoot just a few scenes" and then she covers her mouth as if she wasn't supposed to acknowledge the camera's presence. but i bet warhol appreciated the irony of it.
That stuff Edie's drinking is couch syrup... strong codeine (3-methylmorphine) medication... Not that good if you take too much. Edie would take too much of course.
@MowgliX They usually prescribe the cough syrup if you have a serious throat infection or sinus infection. The stuff literally numbs your entire throat and mouth. I took it once from my Doctor and didn't take it again. Its really strong, it made the my sore throat go away but even in the small dose I took I felt vacant. I never took it again.
@JediGoddessChristy Haha, yep, I think it's very good stuff, but never take too much of the good stuff because it will numb not only your throat, but the whole of YOU! :D It's an opiate after all.
Oh, and I misspelled it: they call it cough syrup, but like you said, it's för throat infections. Oh God, Edie is absolutely adorable here!!!!! Cute as a button!!!! It's so sad a dazzling beauty, a charming girl like Edie can die like in that terrible way.
@MowgliX Oh I agree Edie definitely has a unique charm to her, its really such a shame. Andy really wasn't in his right mind either and so many people dismissed it as him being an eccentric artist but it was more than that. Unfortunately when it comes to fame so many lives can be destroyed by it unless you are really a strong person. The beautiful and naive don't last long. At least we have these memories of her so her vitality isn't forgotten.
@JediGoddessChristy Edie will never be forgotten. She was not only very pretty - she was talented, acting was natural to her. She was an artist at heart, like her father.
who is talking to her? it's so weird watching this, it's like it's happening right now. It's like she's alive and talking and living and about to go to dinner. Film and our experience of it is so odd, that it creates this sense of life, when this was filmed many years ago and she is sadly gone.
@blackjakko Right! And I think Andy Warhol was the first one to do this - reality TV, but on 16 millimeter film. All of his films are like this, basically - it's people's natural reactions, LIVE!
A young girl who got caught up in the drug scene. You can see the progression of her eventual demise. So sad. So glad we have this footage as an homage to her. Live on Edie.
@MscBlggr You have to look at the film like a moving painting. It's not terribly engaging all the time, but you can leave and come back to it, and it will still be there. Edie is the painting in this case.
@MscBlggr There's really not much to get. Warhol had an an affinity for the tedious as well as a great love of charismatic and extroverted personalities like Edie, and some of his films only contain the former. They're really only famous because they were edgy, raw, and ahead of their time (often involving sex, drugs, and transvestites), not because they were great. Warhol was really a great visionary rather than a great talent.
you people are losers. If Edie were ugly and lived long you wouldn't care about her. You only talk about her looks and people have a fascination with beautiful people who died young. She was little more than a Paris Hilton of her time. If Paris Hilton ends up worshipped 40s years from now the way Edie is, I would throw up.
@Tigerlily21 I totally get this. And like.. if she was an amazingly selfless woman who spent her life helping starving children, rather than taking drugs, no one would even care about her. It's quite sad.
@woobia It's not sad, it's a fact of life. Fascination is based on the abnormal, the bizarre, and the appealing, not on the noble. Is it also "sad" that Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer are remembered while their victims are not? No, because remembrance and admiration are not mutually inclusive. People aren't looking to famous figures for moral lessons, and I hardly see that as a cause for concern. The three most famous icons of the 20th century are Hitler, Elvis and Marilyn Monroe. Need I say more?
@xXPinkGoddessXx But (most) people don't look at Hitler thinking "oh my god, I want to be just like him."
"Remembrance and admiration are not mutually inclusive." That doesn't make sense. You're saying that they are mutually exclusive, meaning that remembrance and admiration can't happen at the same time?
@woobia Of course, but people care about him nevertheless, far more than they do about people who help their lives helping starving children. Hitler is an object of fear and repulsion, however, there are many fearsome and repulsive people whom history neglects because they are commonplace. Just as there are many pretty, talented, or well-achieving people whom history neglects. The only factor that guarantees remembrance is fascination, and Edie certainly warrants that in my view.
@woobia Of course not; just because two factors are not always linked does not mean they are never linked. Many people who are remembered are held in high regard, but there are a large amount of those who aren't.
The reason I don't view this as sad is because how much public exposure a person receives has never been a measure of how admired or loved they are, and nor should it ever be.
@xXPinkGoddessXx Yes well your sentence didn't make sense then. Not mutually inclusive means mutually exclusive.
I didn't say I found it sad that Edie receives a lot of public exposure. What is sad is that she is admired, when she never did anything all that admirable. She's not just remembered, young girls look up to her, admire her, and want to be like her. That is what I find sad.
@woobia No it doesn't; not being mutually inclusive means just that - that two components do not have to exist together, not that it's impossible for them to.
As I said, I don't think most people who come here to discuss Edie or even those who call themselves fans have a great respect or admiration of Edie's life. There are certainly things I admire about her greatly, but they are equalled by the things I greatly pity her for, and you cannot take the good without the bad.
@woobia People don't need to do admirable things to be admired, not at all. Even many of the most talented entertainers were simply doing jobs that were ultimately no more challenging than plenty of the jobs ordinary blue and white collar workers labour at every day. Entertainers simply have a greater opportunity to be admired because they're out in the public eye worldwide. That's why plenty of mediocre talents also have large fan bases; fame allows a unique connection to form between people.
@woobia Have you ever known a young girl to look up to Edie? I've never met an Edie fan in person, but I've spoken to a lot online and the vast majority don't look up to her (if by that phrase you mean idolise or glorify). The only ones who did looked up to Edie for her beauty and style, not her lifestyle choices. It would be absurd to blame Edie in any case though, the same way it would be absurd to blame an alcohol company because its product got into the hands of underage kids.
@xXPinkGoddessXx Please never wear tights and sweaters, long shirts, or anything like that, since, as we all know, Edie Sedgwick started that fashion style, and is a huge fashion icon. Do you know Katie White? (probably not)...Katie White is in a band called the Ting Tings, and actually notes Edie Sedgwick as being one of her favorite fashion icons that she looks up to.

@xXPinkGoddessXx I looked up to her completely when I was fourteen. I also had an eating disorder because of this obsession.. I guess it's quite rarae to get so involved though
@meganpacifici93 Do you honestly believe the eating disorder resulted from your Edie obsession though? I can understand drawing inspiration for eating disorders from celebrities like Edie, but all mental illnesses have deep psychological factors underpinning them, as I'm sure you know.
@xXPinkGoddessXx yeah absolutely well it was probably the same psychological factor that got me so obsessed in the first place. i still adore edie.. she really had an enormous part of my teen years..
@woobia Of course no one should want to be a bulimic drug addict who spends all their money on clothes and jewellry. However, there is something very admirable about her. Her entire family was fucked up beyond belief, and horrifying things happened to her all the time, and everyone she trusted hurt her, and yet she insisted on maintaining that sweet outlook on everything. Perhaps that was her naivete, but perhaps she made a conscious decision not to turn into a cunt.
@Tam28ish That's so right. Edie had a very appealing naivety, a moral purity and a straightforward honesty and directness. How can you not love a girl like that? But yes, she was very careless about her money and her life in general, including her own safety and health.
@Tigerlily21 she wasn't a paris hilton. she wasn't just a poor little rich girl. she had a hard life. she suffered sexual abuse and mental illness and she was always looking for an escape.. so yeah, she had problems but she was an extremely deep person and extremely beautiful inside and out. her beauty was her art. you don't have to be an edie fan but saying she was the paris hilton of her time is just wrong.
@Tigerlily21 I don't care about her looks. There is just something about her...her life story,her personality, her mannerisms-it really draws you in and captivates you. She has a natural magic about her. If she was alive today she still would have had that "something" that would grab your attention. I'm certain of that. Some people are just naturally fascinating! Edie Sedgwick is one of them. Paris Hilton in all her manifactured glory could never come close to her:)
@Tigerlily21 Edie was quite the opposite of Paris, if you know nothing about her, I might see how you could say that people are fascinated with her on a superficial level, & that she was superficial like Paris, but she was the Opposite! AbsoluteMAL & SummerLemontree are dead on right in their comments about Edie... I personally love & respect her b/c she made the most of what she had, she overcame incredible difficulties in her life that you can't even imagine!
@Tigerlily21 I personally refrain from making comments about things I know nothing about, because it tends to make a person look ignorant when they do. I strongly suggest that you do the same.
@Tigerlily21 What utter hypocrisy. If we're losers because there are far more morally worthy people we could be admiring instead, why aren't you also a "loser" by this rule, since there are far more morally worse people you could be chastising instead?
i adore edie. i am almost positive she was smoking weed out of that pipe. she keeps mentioning how her mouth is dry and im guessing it could be from the weed. plus with all the uppers she was on she must have used weed sometimes to balance herself out. this is just a guess. she is absolutely stunning and all her facial expressions are so adorable. i have to say i love her eyebrows.
That weird mark is when she crashed her Mercedes she got a scar there!.....
I want them to make a real true to life Edie movie Factory girl got nothing right! And instead of sienna Natalie Portman needs to play Edie like she had planned on.
@pyschyamind YES! I'll buy that! Natalie Portman is a GREAT actress, that was obvious from the very beginning, and she even looks like Edie and has the same sprightly energy and intelligence. (Edie had tremendous energy all the time.)
@AbakusMusic you fucking moron, sedgwick was an attention seeking junkie if you put it like that, and if you cant stand people different than you, go and make your own youtube, one for just you, either that or get help from a psychiatrist as you obviously have a social phobia... oh, and you are a fucking moron, presumptious narsasistic and probably a momies skirt crybaby... grow up and get a life!
There's not many peoples faces you can stare at directly for ten minutes straight, but Edie is the perfect specimen for someone you can. Every single movement and expression of hers was mesmerising. She couldn't do an uninteresting thing if she tried. She was so amazing. I would buy anything with anything to do with her. I want everything she was ever in, so I can die happy. :)
@RubiiXo right. She was incredible. I am so addicted to Edie. ;) This clip from PLRG in particular!!!!! I only wish somebody in Hollywood had seen the kind of star power Edie had, but they are all idiots. And that she had lived to become a mother and had a reasonably happy life. Harmony, happiness, health. That's what I would have wanted for Edie.
She has no near-memory it seems, at least from what I made out of the dialogue. This may have been due to her amphetamine abuse and lack of sleep. After a period of partying and taking amphetamine, she would pop several sleeping pills (barbiturates, really powerful stufff) and doze off for three days or so. Here, she drinks codeine syrup and smokes pot, and is also on pills... I doubt she would have lasted for very long if she had managed to make it to Hollywood. What a waste of a young woman!
No wonder! I have been looking for the segment where she talks about "blowing her entire inheritance in six months." I guess this is the part, when the dang music is playing so loudly in the background you can't understand what they're saying! The most interesting part. THANKS, Warhol, you a-hole.
@pajamagirl123, I believe it's at 4:39 when Edie says "It's all over for me" after Chuck mentions that the bank is closed, and contemplates what to do. She doesn't really mention how she blew her inheritance though (but it's not hard to guess!)
Right before that I also think she says "I would've even belonged with the Roman type", as the Romans were known for eating huge meals and throwing it all up.
It was a VERY POOR technique IMO that Warhol employed. Tonight I saw "Kitchen," and in that one he did the same freakin' thing with a milkshake machine whirring in the background so you can't hear the lines spoken. MADDENING, and I hate it!
@livvy177 Not a lot of sound editing for this particular piece of work. The logical way is to add music in post production so you can control the volume, unless you already knew that then I'm sorry.
I read in a VU bio that Lou would alternate between saying it's about Nico and Edie but in recent years has attributed it to Edie. It definitely sounds much more like Edie. There's another Lou Reed song (Sally Can't Dance) that's apparently about Edie.
The bootleg album Quine Tapes has him at a Velvet concert telling the crowd that he wrote it about Edie because Andy told him too. I don't believe that explanation for minute. I don't think he wants to talk about the real reason, which is his privilege. I'm not blaming him for reaching a false conclusion about Edie, but gossiping to the world about her like that was lame, especially for a class act like Lou Reed.
Andy Warhol said Edie would never remove her makeup, she would just cake on more. He said one time he forced her to take a bath because she rarely did but looking through the keyhole he saw she was just putting on another layer of makeup, and making a list of the men she slept with. Gotta love her!
Cough syrup which contains codeine, an opiate that actually helps congestion in the throat, however I don't think that is the reason why they drink it though ;-)
nope he just filmed her. andy was famous for having no scripts and no set up. he was interested in human beings and the spontanaity that comes with it. edie happened to be a very excentric person so that andy was able to film an entire day in the life of edie.
when sienna miller portrays her in Factory Girl, she does the same thing. Only it was in their rendition of Beauty No. 2. Just a small little detail that only a few people would notice.
It's a scar from a auto accident when she totalled her gray Mercedes while driving on acid...she put makeup on it to make it more visible rather than covering it up.
@blackjakko It's her friend Chuck talking to her.

I want them to make a real true to life Edie movie Factory girl got nothing right! And instead of sienna Natalie Portman needs to play Edie like she had planned on.
pyschyamind 1 year ago
@pyschyamind YES! I'll buy that! Natalie Portman is a GREAT actress, that was obvious from the very beginning, and she even looks like Edie and has the same sprightly energy and intelligence. (Edie had tremendous energy all the time.)

There's not many peoples faces you can stare at directly for ten minutes straight, but Edie is the perfect specimen for someone you can. Every single movement and expression of hers was mesmerising. She couldn't do an uninteresting thing if she tried. She was so amazing. I would buy anything with anything to do with her. I want everything she was ever in, so I can die happy. :)
RubiiXo 1 year ago 15
@RubiiXo right. She was incredible. I am so addicted to Edie. ;) This clip from PLRG in particular!!!!! I only wish somebody in Hollywood had seen the kind of star power Edie had, but they are all idiots. And that she had lived to become a mother and had a reasonably happy life. Harmony, happiness, health. That's what I would have wanted for Edie.
MowgliX 6 months ago
@RubiiXo Yes, that was Edie's magic. Be careful, she is VERY addictive!
MowgliX 6 months ago
@RubiiXo Me too!
MowgliX 5 months ago
She has no near-memory it seems, at least from what I made out of the dialogue. This may have been due to her amphetamine abuse and lack of sleep. After a period of partying and taking amphetamine, she would pop several sleeping pills (barbiturates, really powerful stufff) and doze off for three days or so. Here, she drinks codeine syrup and smokes pot, and is also on pills... I doubt she would have lasted for very long if she had managed to make it to Hollywood. What a waste of a young woman!

I agree about Edie being much smarter than Paris, but I don't think Edie's parents had anywhere near the Hilton's multi-billion dollar fortune.

No wonder! I have been looking for the segment where she talks about "blowing her entire inheritance in six months." I guess this is the part, when the dang music is playing so loudly in the background you can't understand what they're saying! The most interesting part. THANKS, Warhol, you a-hole.

@pajamagirl123, I believe it's at 4:39 when Edie says "It's all over for me" after Chuck mentions that the bank is closed, and contemplates what to do. She doesn't really mention how she blew her inheritance though (but it's not hard to guess!)

It was a VERY POOR technique IMO that Warhol employed. Tonight I saw "Kitchen," and in that one he did the same freakin' thing with a milkshake machine whirring in the background so you can't hear the lines spoken. MADDENING, and I hate it!

@livvy177 Not a lot of sound editing for this particular piece of work. The logical way is to add music in post production so you can control the volume, unless you already knew that then I'm sorry.

did Lou Reed really right 'Femme Fatal' (by Velvet Underground) about her? someone posted a vid on here saying that..true?
Redbirdgirl88 2 years ago 2
it is true as far as i know, andy asked him to write a song about her..
pineappleshamama 2 years ago
I read in a VU bio that Lou would alternate between saying it's about Nico and Edie but in recent years has attributed it to Edie. It definitely sounds much more like Edie. There's another Lou Reed song (Sally Can't Dance) that's apparently about Edie.
xXPinkGoddessXx 2 years ago
The bootleg album Quine Tapes has him at a Velvet concert telling the crowd that he wrote it about Edie because Andy told him too. I don't believe that explanation for minute. I don't think he wants to talk about the real reason, which is his privilege. I'm not blaming him for reaching a false conclusion about Edie, but gossiping to the world about her like that was lame, especially for a class act like Lou Reed.

did she wears a sort of permament make up?
DieTodlicheAnn 2 years ago
Andy Warhol said Edie would never remove her makeup, she would just cake on more. He said one time he forced her to take a bath because she rarely did but looking through the keyhole he saw she was just putting on another layer of makeup, and making a list of the men she slept with. Gotta love her!

janspand10 2 years ago 4
liquid vitamins...much of the time she wouldn't eat and that was her only form of nutrition...
pathoplastic 2 years ago
Cough syrup which contains codeine, an opiate that actually helps congestion in the throat, however I don't think that is the reason why they drink it though ;-)
janspand10 2 years ago
Very doubtful...even in the 60s, cough syrup was for kids. Also, Edie and most of the people in the Factory were into speed, not opiates

nope he just filmed her. andy was famous for having no scripts and no set up. he was interested in human beings and the spontanaity that comes with it. edie happened to be a very excentric person so that andy was able to film an entire day in the life of edie.
