About this product

Product Information

Best known for playing muse to Andy Warhol, Edie Sedgwick was a dazzling young socialite who found herself at the apex of the pop art scene in 1960s New York. In FACTORY GIRL, Sienna Miller is the enchanting, enigmatic Edie, offering a moving characterization of the extremely troubled model/actress. The film kicks off as Edie, the daughter of a well-to-do horse rancher, leaves art school and moves to Manhattan in the mid-'60s. Her friend Chuck Wein (Jimmy Fallon) introduces her to Andy Warhol (Guy Pearce), and Andy is immediately taken with the waifish, wealthy Edie. He welcomes her into his Factory, the silver aluminum-foil covered loft where an assortment of artists and oddballs assisted him with his projects. Edie quickly falls into the hard partying, drug-addled scene, starring in Andy's experimental films and becoming his constant companion. She becomes well-known for her unique style, and the fashion industry taps her as its very first "It" girl. Edie is flying high on Andy, speed, and stardom, when she happens to meet the Bob Dylan-esque "Folksinger" (Hayden Christensen). She falls in love with him, and in doing so, falls out of Andy's favor. Her drug addiction spirals out of control, her parents cut off her cash flow, and her very bright star seems to burn out almost as quickly as it rose. As with most biopics, people are sure to quibble over the accuracy of FACTORY GIRL, and whether it offers fair portrayals of so many larger-than-life cultural icons. However, viewers are sure to agree that it makes a poignant statement about the pitfalls of fame. When Warhol tells Edie's mother that her daughter is going to be "super famous", Mrs. Sedgwick coldly responds: "And what exactly would be the value of that?" Judging from the very tragic, short life of Edie, there wasn't much value in it at all.

    Grim view of late icon.

    When someone set out to do this movie, they didn't make it family friendly. No, this movie takes a dark picture of a disturbing underbelly of Hollywood icons. Sex, drugs, and destroyed lives are what is left in the wake of this story. Sadly, in the end, the message seems to be "It's best not to feel anything at all". The message should have been: Be responsible for yourself and those around you".

  • Great video, insightful but disturbing as well.

    Cold hard look at the beat generation and how one girl gets lost in the drug and art culture of the time. Clearly and graphically follows the rise and fall of one "wannabe" but more importantly shows the shallowness of those around her. Must see video, although dated material, it has relevance to todays youth seeking fame through association not hard work.

  • When Andy met Edie

    Interesting chronology of the quasi-relationship / love triangle tween 60's art icon Andy Warhol, doomed poor little rich girl Edie Sedgwick and folk poet luminary "Quinn" a thinly veiled Bob Dylan at the peak of his powers. No happy endings here. Brilliantly acted, especially Sienna Miller who flawlessly channels the late, much lamented Miss Sedgwick who shone so brilliantly but burned out far before her time to scary perfection. The film captures the mood and moment in great glorious detail. A definite winner.

  • Factory Girl

    I liked how it related to history. The sexual content and drug usage does not make it good for kids. The pace will keep your interest. The graphics are fantastic! The storyline was great, so was the discussion period afterwards!
