MM What about Factory Girl?

HC It's a biopic about Edie Sedgwick; her real life story. I play this folk-star sort of guy who is based on Bob Dylan. My role was originally Bob Dylan, because they had an affair, but the film couldn't get the rights to use his name. So we couldn't use his name or any of his music, but essentially I'm playing Bob Dylan. I did a version of the voice and the mannerisms – sort of mumbling. I wrote a song sort of in the Dylan vein, which was very cool. I had to learn to play the guitar for the part.

Love the title and I can't stop staring at the gorgeous Billy pics

**BehrItAll** · 08-28-2011, 01:29 PM

It is a sweet title. Too bad she didn't keep up with it

I love the OP.

kindness is free · 08-28-2011, 01:50 PM

It is sad that she didn't keep up with her art she was talented

The OP is gorgeous

She definately had a gift. Andy called himself an artist, but really it was Edie who was the true artist.

kindness is free · 08-30-2011, 01:50 PM

Andy thought he was an artist but to be honest I didn't really get his art. Edie was the true artist she had a real talent

I didn't really get his art either. I found his stuff a bit odd. I don't know if I'd call it art.

kindness is free · 08-31-2011, 12:38 AM

Same here

It had no imagination it was just prints really. He didn't have the talent Edie had.

Rosecrystals · 09-03-2011, 08:50 PM

Yeah and anyone can make prints. You don't have to be an artist. What Andy did wasn't even ground-breaking. I don't know why he's so famous.

kindness is free · 09-04-2011, 04:29 AM

I don't either. Exactly it's not unique or individual to the artist he didn't have any of the talent Edie had.

That is why they call it pop-art, I suppose
And at the time it was new and fresh, therefore groundbreaking. These days it's like, "so what?"

kindness is free · 09-05-2011, 01:33 PM

I don't really know alot about art so thanks for clearing that up for me Stephanie

Yea if he came out now with his pop art people wouldn't be that bothered.

**BehrItAll** · 09-07-2011, 07:50 PM

Not that shocking anymore. Not much shocks people anymore.

kindness is free · 09-08-2011, 01:16 PM

That is true. It would take alot to shock people now

This video is beautifully done

Rosecrystals · 09-08-2011, 02:23 PM

That was an amazing video. Thanks for posting it and I love your Edie/Billy avatar!
