'Factory Girl' Sienna Miller

[watch2050]

incredible film

[Ghoopty]

God she's beautiful.....her sweetness, her talent, her modesty, her cute British accent....I'm in love. Her and Diane Lane.

[mink61]

How much do we learn about Edie Sedgwick (save the predictable) from this shlock-a-thon? 

[dimesonmygrassXx]

geezus, she smoked the mother in the movie. Good movie..

[lizzybuggg1]

I'm a huge Edie Sedgewick fan...and Sienna Miller did an amazing performance!

[CandyDemise]

youre the boss applesauce

[TheBellaView]

Sienna's performance in the film blew me away. I can honestly say she never caught much interest from me before because I never heard of any films she was in untill Factory Girl came out. Amazing! Just...wow!

[karjen9598]

She was born in New York, why does she have a UK accent??

[blueskkky0]

@karjen9598 she moved to england when she was 1 and grew up there

[lamestguyintown]

@karjen9598 because she grew up in Britain and have a british passport? and generally britain is better?

[jocelyna38]

the reaL EDIE SEDWICK WAS A DRUG ADDICT SKANK!

[urterrmuriel]

@jocelyna38 she was abused and sent to a nuthouse as a cover up by her parents -_-

[shazam15]

@jocelyna38

We know! We all know! Why would you think this is news to any of us?! Andy Warhol and his Factory are famous for housing self destructive people. Anyone who is a fan of edie knows about her permiscuity and drug use. thats what she's famous for!

[MegaCapitalistPig]

@jocelyna38 annnnd you're not judgmental at all, eh? ;) Like it or not, she contributed to fashion, cinema, and she inspired and mingled with influential writers and musicians of the time period. I mean, if Edie wasn't around, the shit that came out of the factory - including the people - would've been a lot different. She shifted the entire atmosphere of that place around - she effected the artists. I'm not romanticizing her drug addiction or anything, but I mean it is what it is, you know?

[EvoBabee]

amazing actress!

[znikacz]

The interviewer is so plastic it's almost unbelievable. She's like an android.

[musicandstrawberries]

She's charming ^.^*

[newyorkeastside]

GIRLS TODAY WISH THEY COULD COME UP WITH ORIGINAL FASHION IDEAS.....

THERE'S NOTHING NEW.....EVEN LADY GA GA "BITES" OFF OF MADONNA.....SICKENING IF YOU ASK ME.......SAD

[xXPinkGoddessXx]

@newyorkeastside The lack of original fashion ideas simply has to do with the time period - everything has already been done. In order to be stylistically original in this day and age, you have to dress downright ridiculous, and even then you'll still be accused of imitation. Edie is a style icon because she was underground and unconventional right during the emergence from 50's conservatism. There is no way she would be known for her style had she been born a couple of decades ago.

[newyorkeastside]

@xXPinkGoddessXx you simply repeated what I said earlier.

[xXPinkGoddessXx]

@newyorkeastside Where?

[bweb6]

Regardless of whether Sienna portrayed Edie perfectly, it was still a very powerful performance, probably her best so far in my opinion.

[07tandu]

Although there are some good points, the movie wasn't rubbish I thought. Yes Edie was more than a drug addict but this is cinema and the whole Edie and Andy relationship was hard to define, its a lot of he said she said. Although I do believe the way the main characters Andy and edie were portrayed were quite insightful. People think of Andy as this huge genius when he can be seen as quite selfish person, Edie as a party girl but she was definitely intellectual.

[xXPinkGoddessXx]

@07tandu In order to be insightful, the film would have actually had to offer something new to the public's perception of Andy and Edie, which it didn't really. It had the same two-dimensional view of Andy as a villain and Edie as his innocent pawn that has been peddled for decades now.

[07tandu]

@xXPinkGoddessXx Doesn't mean its not truthful. Just because hes well liked as an artist doesn't mean he was a nice person.

[xXPinkGoddessXx]

@07tandu Of course, but how is it known that he destroyed Edie? The film gives that impression without any supporting evidence.

[07tandu]

@xXPinkGoddessXx How was it known that he didn't destroy her? They obviously had a relationship he obviously had some effect on her. Its stupid not to raise questions, the film also does suggest she had quite an abusive upbringing as well. The film suggests lots of things that were a result of Edies demise. And the film does not make her an innocent pawn, its her fault she let it get that bad.

How would the film be more insightful?

[xXPinkGoddessXx]

@07tandu Facts aren't determined by the knowledge against them but the knowledge FOR them, naturally. Of course Andy and Edie were friends, but that proves nothing. Factory Girl doesn't "raise questions" about Warhol exploiting Edie, it outright asserts that he did, based on nothing but a cartoonist's illustration of a heartless villain. The film almost gives the impression that had Edie not met Andy, all her childhood trauma, psychological flaws and destructive habits may have somehow subsided.

[newyorkeastside]

@xXPinkGoddessXx Simmerman should have thrown her on his motorcycle and left .....marrying Edie is the only...... in my opinion that would have saved her fragile life.

[xXPinkGoddessXx]

@newyorkeastside If you honestly believe that, I'm wasting my time. I guess Michael Post rings no bells to you?

[xXPinkGoddessXx]

What I meant when I said FG makes Edie look "innocent" is that it portrays all others as being direct instigators to her bad behaviour, and shows only her self-destruction, not the destruction she brought to the lives of others. Edie brought turmoil to far, far more lives, to a far greater extent than Andy ever did (and she also brightened many more on a personal level). FG's Edie is simply a rather typically charming, pretty girl, neither brilliant nor bad; the total antithesis of Edie.

[newyorkeastside]

@xXPinkGoddessXx many, many people....one being betsy johnson who witnessed the dynamics between andy and eddie admit (in private) that yes eddie was in andy's care and he did "nothing" to save her. For several reasons. Andy could be a selfish jerk......it was common knowledge.

[xXPinkGoddessXx]

@newyorkeastside How was Edie "in Andy's care"? They were work partners and friends, and not even close ones at that. I know that Andy did nothing to prevent Edie's drug problem, but that doesn't mean he didn't care for her or had sinister intentions. Edie did drugs with or gave drugs to virtually all of her friends, while Andy never touched them. By your very standard, Edie was far more culpable for others' drug use than Andy.

[newyorkeastside]

@xXPinkGoddessXx When you said.."They were work partners and friends, and not even close ones at that...", I stopped reading your comment. Edie and Andy were practically joined at the hip Darling....please refrain from wasting more of my time.

Thank you sweetie.

[xXPinkGoddessXx]

@newyorkeastside They attend parties together for the span of one year, big deal. They were not close emotionally. Chuck Wein was Edie's closest friend at the time and said you would never see the two alone together or doing anything like visiting each other's houses. Edie had also complained that she couldn't get close to Andy emotionally. There were people Edie was much closer with, whom she DID DRUGS with. Do you consider not helping a friend's drug problem worse than actually supporting it?

[MowgliX]

The movie was rubbish. Most of the people who where THERE at the time thinks so too. It didn't capture the real Edie and it misrepresented everything that Andy was all about. A giant crock of shit!

[MowgliX]

@MowgliX Let me just clarify that. Sienna Miller isn't a bad actress. She is rather good. But like she said: Edie was a very complex character, and hard to define because she had so many aspects to her and was talented in so many different areas. She could have been anything, but it became impossible for her because of her mental problems and heavy drug abuse. The movie was a disappointment because it didn't really capture Andy, Edie or any of the other characters in a convincing way.

[07tandu]

agree with Jimboelz, the portrayal of Andy and Edie in any text can be untrue or truthful. The film in itself I thought was interesting, and the characters as well. Very well acted too.

[Flipper79able]

This movie kind of seems like typical Hollywood trash......it's like they don't even try anymore.

[jimboelz]

i don't think anybody's going to know exactly how she was, or portray her spot on. Almost everything written about her, be it a film or a book, is an interpretation.

i really liked the film :)

[jarileigh]

@jimboelz That's so true. There are 2 books about Edie, and both are people's quotes about her, so the information is filtered through the person's bias. Most people loved Edie, but her oldest sister flat out said that she resented and hated Edie. Baby Jane also hated Edie for taking her place as Superstar. There are a few quotes by Edie herself, but most of the information comes from others.

[XTdarkgainTX]

relax baby... I will clean your pipes

[johnobama]

funny how the reporter tried to sneak in some tabloid shit herself in the end...

[zoeeeeeeeeee16]

i thought the film was amazing

[ecortez3]

sorry, but i loved the film.

[Alastor8803]

This film sucks,only just because it's completely different from the real story of every characters,even their "way to be",to act,to live are stereotypies here.See Warhol's film as "Chelsea Girls","kitchen","Ciao!Manhatt­an","nude restaurant",read "The phylosophy of And Warhol".or see "My hustler".This movie is more similar to a parody.

[jarileigh]

Sienna is great, but the movie was crap! They should have called it "The Factory". It was a fictionalized account of Edie's life, (MADE UP) when Edie is ON FILM like in Beauty #2, & they purposely vary from what she did, it makes the character a obscene caricature. The script was so bad that Lou Reed, who knew Edie & was at the Factory, said it was "the most disgusting, foul things I've seen-by any illiterate retard in a long time. They're all a bunch of whores" Referring to the writers!

[missmarie273]

ALL films are fictionalized to enhance the story line. I thought it was an interesting film and exemplified what a freak Warhol truly was.

[cestwen]

factory girl may possibly be the best movie ever made

[BernardProfitendieu]

LOL - that's the funniest thing I've read this year!!! ahahaHAHAHA!

Sienna? is that you?

[BernardProfitendieu]

"rave reviews" what a laugh! she was universally panned.

[propertyofjoey]

ofcourse depends on the area, america LOVED it, england wer'nt so keen

[BernardProfitendieu]

actually, this bomb took in most of it's meagre $3 million box office overseas -- in the US it never had a weekly box office receipt better than 23rd place.. Its first weekend release this dog only took in $87,000 (and I think that's counting popcorn!) and reviews were bad, bad, bad!! I think it's safe to say America HATED it - both the reviewers and the general public. There is still a strong memory of Edie Sedgwick in the US and Miller just didn't cut it performancewise

[charleloomrox]

she is actually one of the most beautifulest actress's. shes the best actreess.....well i think soo! and a great fasion icon :)

luvvv youhh siennaaa

[Approvalized5184GX]

She's damn hot, blonde or black-head... But I think with the G.I Joe suit and her straight black hair makes her look hotter!

[gottajacket]

That straight black hair was so sexy on her.

Don't you think she looked like Silver/Jessica Stroup on 90210?

[Approvalized5184GX]

Sorry, i dunno which actress youa re talking about. But definitely, blondes who sudden go for black hair gives more personality than ever.

[AbsoluteNumberOne]

Black is hotter, but blonde have that angelic beauty ...

[kittkatt032]

Yeah, blonde with dark brown eyes.

[DearrHannahh]

I didn't know she had an accent, haha you can't tell in Factory Girl.

[jamesallbee]

I LOVE this movie... but I've found that it's so hard to look at her in interviews and not see a little bit of Edie in her eyes and her smile, it's odd, but it's not necessarily bad :]

[Bindimbu]

i like that hairdo she is on =)

[Ajstarr88]

love this movie so much and sienna did a kickass job

[sasssav]

i watched this and i just fell in love with it , its made me see fashion is such a diffrent way , my fav fillm everrrr

[newyorkeastside]
