    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The scene between Sienna Miller and Hayden Christensen where Edie tells The Musician about the death of her brothers was completely improvised by Sienna based on her knowledge of Edie Sedgwick.
    • Goofs
      Edie Sedgwick's relationship to Nico is depicted incorrectly: in reality they were friends and Edie warned Nico about Andy Warhol's behavior. Edie's death was very sad for Nico.
    • Quotes

      Andy Warhol: I wonder if people are going to remember us?

      Edie Sedgwick: What, when we're dead?

      Andy Warhol: Yeah.

      Edie Sedgwick: Well, I think people will talk about how you changed the world.

      Andy Warhol: I wonder what they'll say about you... in your obituary. I like that word.

      Edie Sedgwick: Nothing nice, I don't think.

      Andy Warhol: No no, come on. They'd say, "Edith Minturn Sedgwick: beautiful artist and actress...

      Edie Sedgwick: ...and all-around loon.

      Andy Warhol: ...Remembered for setting the world on fire...

      Edie Sedgwick: ...and escaping the clutches of her terrifying family...

      Andy Warhol: ...Made friends with eeeeverybody and anybody...

      Edie Sedgwick: ...creating chaos and uproar wherever she went. Divorced as many times as she married, she leaves only good wishes behind.

      [laughs]

      Edie Sedgwick: That's nice, isn't it?

    • Crazy credits
      During the first part of the end credits, photos are shown of the real Edie Sedgwick. Also people who knew her give testimonies about her.
    • Alternate versions
      According to the FAQ section: "For the home theatre market, an unrated version was released aside from the R-rated theatrical version. Most scenes which were re-inserted or alternately shifted, serve to specify character drawings and various aspects of the story which were only embedded in the theatrical version to some extent. However, there are also a few extensions with sexual contents and more explicit depictions of drug use."

    "This movie made a fool out of me!"
    This amateurish biopic of Andy Warhol's tragic muse, Edie Sedgwick (Sienna Miller, terrible!) shouldn't have been made - at least not with such a poor screenplay/casting. The rich, young and pretty Edie Sedgwick, whose family life hides secrets that could be made into a Todd Solondz flick, goes to NYC in the 1960's and meets pop artist Andy Warhol (Guy Pearce, the only good thing about the movie). They develop a strange friendship and Edie becomes the muse of the Factory, Warhol's bizarre studio, and the star of Warhol's experimental movies. But when Edie meets rock star Billy "I'm not Bob Dylan" Quinn (Hayden Christensen, almost as ridiculous as Sienna), Andy feels rejected and Edie finds herself divided between her "friends" from the Factory and Dylan's, oops, Quinn's love.

    "Factory Girl" is a bad joke that must be avoided. I think it's laughable to see how much Oscar buzz Sienna Miller caused before the movie came out. The role was quite a bait, but she couldn't pull it off. Sienna gave one of the most ridiculous, cringe-inducing performances of the decade, that it often seems she's laughing at herself. The problem is, the movie isn't supposed to be funny and her laughing is quite annoying.

    I give it a 3/10 only for Pearce, and I'm being quite generous.
