Factory Girl (2006)


A biography directed by George Hickenlooper.
A rich girl from Massachusetts moves to New York City and meets Andy Warhol. She becomes a regular at his parties and they make films together. When she meets another man, Warhol's support is withdrawn and she is left alone.
By the end of the film, the main character started to remind me of the Nancy character from Sid and Nancy. She was always crying or whining and always in need of drugs, but rarely got them. The characters were good, including the fake Andy Warhol who acted like the other fake one from Basquiat. I thought the plot was a little simple, but not bad. There were many scenes in black and white showing the films that were made, mixed with color scenes of what was happening. I hate to give so many of the same rating in a row, but I have to be honest about the films. Adequate.
