Something many people don't understand about asking for help when you come from an abusive family... what's the point? Why ask for help when it will be denied anyway? After so much betrayal and abandonment, asking for help doesn't even cross one's mind. It's not always that help isn't needed or about pride. Too often, it's about self preservation and avoiding humiliation.

I hope she tells us so we can film it" He enjoyed other's pain (Beauty #2) He thought Edie would make him famous in Hollywood as a filmmaker, he said he was quitting Art on the only interview on TV of them I know of, & when he saw she wasn't stable enough, he dropped her, after spending her money, using her status to elevate his, etc

But as someone who is rather emotionally aloof I experienced a suicide of a long term partner- and its created a hole in me. Could he have been denying the emotion?

Her charisma and style were great starting points, but those two qualities are only a small part of the package one needs to find lasting success and survival in the world of New York City.

@@bluebellbeatnik4945 - There was an element of all the people in the Factory crowd that Warhol would deliver them from obscurity to relevance or importance. Edie from what I understand had endured a somewhat cold family upbringing and perhaps she found a new family in the Warhol milieu. I have no idea how she was treated by VU in particular but I’m sure there was plenty of sexual musical chairs going on. What is important about seeking success and fame is that it inevitably brings hangers on. Was she really a superstar? That was subjective and fairly hard to say. Andy was a trailblazer and self sufficient on his own. Like Edie, he needed some kind of support team and allies yet he was not universally loved and accepted at that time. To some, he was never a true fine artist. Yet, looking back now he created work that people treasure and collect, so in his own time he was just an enigma to many. Actors like painters need patrons or true believers in their talents. Andy could hustle commercial art and do well. Edie could have probably just modeled and done ok. The moment you aspire to be something more you run into the waiting game of history to be the judge. Now Edie seems like a precious and frail persona doing all she could to be more than just marginal. Ultimately all fame is just an ephemeral game, just like youth and beauty. Since Andy did not have beauty to fall back on all he had were his wits. Edie did like so many (Nico, Marianne Faithful) and just threw all to the wind and just went with drugs. Drugs they say speed up what would have happened anyway but bring it all into a fast track to oblivion. There was nothing for her to fight for ultimately except survival in a sometimes unforgiving world of critics, moral judges, and the generally cynical people of New York? I can’t generalize New Yorkers as all cynical but it sure seems like a pretty competitive and difficult place to be vulnerable as she was.

I believe many people have much to answer for in regards to their treatment of Edie. Some people were obviously jealous of her breathtaking beauty and unsurpassed charm. Some were likely envious of her social standing and families wealth. Some probably even sought revenge for real or perceived slights or wrongs committed by Edie. She was far from perfect, and had many shortcomings...as we all do. However, she deserved better treatment than she received from many. I am not sure Edie ever received the “unconditional” love many of us take for granted. It seems that Edie instead received a lot of conditional love and support ...(e.g. “I will support you as long as you do this”, or “I will love you as long as you act this way”). We ALL need people in our lives who will love us without conditions being placed....unconditional love is what she lacked the most in her life, in my very humble opinion. Her life should have gone so differently.

He was very ungrateful to her. Had she not had so many problems I feel like she could of been a huge megastar. A lot of stuff for me don't make sense. I feel that she didn't really have any person in her life that protected her. I was reading up on how she died and I can't help to feel that maybe her husband had something to do with it. So much mystery that surrounds her death. She suffered so much.

These people are special and when nurtured can be magnificent. I knew a person like that, horrid family, horrid childhood but simply wonderful to behold. His joy for life and beauty were so contagious that other people wanted to be a part of it, but they didn't understand his way of thinking and would end up using him and moving on. All he ever wanted was love, something he didn't get at home. His family was cold and detached. Her never spent Christmas or birthdays with them past the age of 3. They were positively dreadful to him and eventually he ended his life.

Edie was rich enough to get lots of attention but didn't want it from the sorts of people she was expected to be around. While it can be fun for a minute to be around upper class folks (who think they are better than the rest), it's not a good life for those who value authenticity and humility. Edie wasn't able to be tamed to live that life, and had a strong desire to make her own way, so she tried to do it ...with a leash around her neck. She may have been trapped psychologically, but it's nice she had brief opportunities to just be Edie. Her dancing makes me think of a great inner celebration of breaking out of a jello type mold. Shaking it all off and daring to just be...free. Music is healing and she demonstrated that beautifully. I wish she could have lived to complete the work she started.

I really want to get this off my chest - As much I admire Bob Dylan,a lyrical genius, he was a cold-hearted,cruel and unkind individual.A very hard one. I guess even after all these years he would never admit his true love for this woman as his most notable songs are about her,a whole album's title was inspired by her. And sorry to the hardcore Dylan fans,but what survived of his whole body of work are precisely "Just like a woman", "Like a rolling stone" and Leopard skin Pillbox hat I am disgusted and appalled at how cruel the lyrics are to the last two and even as Edie has had such a tragic fate - the man she loved doesn't even admit he had a romance with her. How unfair, Bob you will burn in hell for this, you let her go... And you know it,otherwise you wouldn't be so bothered by this movie.

Also, her affair with dylan couldn't have lasted more than 3 months without overlapping with her other relationships & DEFINITELY overlapped with his marriage to Sara lownds, which is one of the few things the movie Factory Girl doesn't lie about.

I'm sick of all the comments about how Sienna Miller didn't do her justice. Not saying Sienna is a great actress (yet) but she is a fine actress. I don't think she quite captured Edie's vulnerability, but overall, she did a very good job and DID resemble Edie, although even that is irrelevant. Michelle Williams didn't look much like Monroe, but she captured her essence and did a great job in 'My Week with Marilyn." Same thing here with Sienna Miller. I think some of you are such die hard fans of Edie that no one but Edie herself would be acceptable to you up there on the screen. And I am sure Sam Green did know Edie. He may exaggerate some, but he came from a very rich family and was very involved in the art world. This guy became a close companion of Garbo in her later years. If he had access to the inside of Greta Garbo's apartment, trust me, it would have been nothing to know Edie Sedgwick. Don't mean that as a put down against Edie. She seems to me like she was a genuine person when it came to others, Warhol is another story. She was super sensitive and didn't seem to realize just how beautiful she was, inside and out. Seems she couldn't handle the tragedies of life and ended up becoming one herself. Someone should have stepped in and took her away and just loved the shit out of her...........if it is possible to save someone from themselves, which is the big question one has to ask. But no matter, it's all over now. I hope she is at peace.

At the time of her death her normal levels of her medication & alcohol were found in her system. She didn't die in NYC strung out. A great deal happened between her "death" in the movie & real life, like the completion of the movie Ciao! Manhattan. The script takes way too many liberties, & it's a shame, because her life was interesting enough without having to Hollywood it up. They should have said at the beginning "A True Story....sort of", like they did with the movie Domino, so people knew it was about a real person, but the story was made up.

People BELIEVE Edie died in NYC strung out on heroin & that Warhol caused her downfall, etc! She died in California, married, with her prescription medication her husband gave her nightly & alcohol in her system, after completing Ciao! Manhattan. I could go on all day about the false characters, made up situations, & important factors left out, exaggerations, etc, people who knew Edie were disgusted with the script (w/ the exception of Jonathon, & he wasn't THERE). No one who was there, Lou Reed, Bob Dylan, Bob Neuwirth, John Cale, etc etc/wanted anything to do with this script, calling it crap & threatening to sue. I think both Domino & Gia portrayed both of those deceased with some truth & dignity, while Hollywood seemed to go out of their way to make a movie about a rich girl who gets fame & then is destroyed by it (not even what happened!). I think it's disgusting to portray someone who is deceased to the world in a movie about their life so untruthfully just to make a buck (as Lou Reed said). They managed to do it with Domino, all Hollywood, but still respected her memory. Factory Girl shows all the bad of Edie & none of the charm, why would ANY Edie fan like it?

I think no one was around to keep the script in check b/c it was in the '60's, unlike "Gia" the '80's, & Domino, who died after filming. In Domino they made no mention of drugs & how she died, b/c the people involved with the movie actually knew & liked the real Domino. With "Gia" her very controlling Mother was present should anything untruthful & ugly be misrepresented. (And like Edie, her life was enough for Hollywood without having to lie). With Edie it was just a few incidents from her life &the rest Hollywood BS, no one involved with that project knew or gave a s**t about Edie, & it really shows in the movie. That's why so many people who knew Edie & so many Edie fans find the movie distasteful.

To me it feels like her short life was nothing but sadness.. If the stories of her relationship with her father were true.. I believe her breaking away from the family ranch to make it on her own was to try to became famous and loved to fill the gap she felt she should have had back at home.. She thought Andy warhol was her entry into the world of fame but was disillusioned by the low level of his direction.. She moved onto the country singer because she could see he had what she was longing for the fame and the love... I wonder if she had achieved the fame and stardom she so badly wanted.. That she could have survived anyway. Her life was like a vicious circle with her wanting to be recognised and loved.. And she never felt like she achieved that... But that's only how I see it.. Others may disagree.. But her beauty and vulnerability is what drew a lot of us in and we couldnt help but love her... So maybe she did achieve what she longed for after all

"It really didn't affect him" that was regarding Edie's leaving him, but the same could be said of any relationship because he wasn't capable of having one, due to him lack of empathy, nothing regarding other people affected him unless they were HELPING him.

Modernism has two poles -- absurdism and minimalism. In general, the whole Warholian thing was a study in how the absurdism pole can become a disaster. E.S. was like a moth burnt up in the flame of absurdism. BTW, does anyone see the parallels to Audrey Hepburn's Holly Golightly in "Breakfast at Tiffany's?"

So weird that Jonathan admits he wanted to sleep with his sister and feels he should have. Edie was in a sick environment, no matter if it was Cambridge, Manhattan, or Santa Barbara. Michael Post really loved her and cared about her well being. Edie's bio is so sad. Jean Stein and Plimpton composed the most accurate details, but then Jean jumped from a NYC building to her death. Seems like everyone was cursed to a tragic end.

Byron P Penick That's correct, Michael did really love Edie. ... He looked so sad, even into the 90's. .. I used to eat at the same restaurant and the sadness was haunting, and that was before I knew what he'd gone through. ... Her Fat,her and Mother were engaging in (during WWII) an open marriage, with people from the art department at UCSB. ... She simply wasn't his Daughter giving "Fuzzy" a perfect excuse for molestation. .... That man had two sons commit suicide. ... Edie's' death was an accident. .... A situation where one does the usual amount, forgetting that one does not have the tolerance that existed before. ..... Your reading of the whole thing is dead-on. ..... I did not know Jean Stein died that way, so tragic.....

I don't know if you've read "Edie an american girl." But if you have you'll find that factory girl is really based on it, besides, most of the people interviewed here, are the ones testifying in the book.

The better to take advantage of that person later , perfect setup . The fact that Eddie was shoplifting was as a direct result of her being under the influence ... why would a rich girl even do that she had lots of money . Addiction changes people completely shoplifting is kind of part of the whole scene it seems .

There is a world of difference between enjoying the pain of others and being fascinated by it in an impersonal way. That line is usually evident by whether a person inflicts pain (which Andy didn't) or whether they merely gravitate toward darker/tragic subjects. However I have seen nothing to prove that Andy was any more fascinated by pain as he was by any other emotional sensation. If he was attracted to anything, it was drama and flamboyance.

You really need to learn some of the symptoms and characterizations associated with sociopaths, because your diagnosis of Warhol as one is painfully superficial. There is a world of difference between those who are unable to emotionally connect with others and those who usually avoid doing so; the latter are in fact often emotionally hypersensitive. Andy's low self esteem, indecisiveness, inassertiveness, premeditation, behavioral control, and loyalty make him the polar opposite of a sociopath.

@jimgillis1718

Because women never look at men like they are specimens and different than themselves with lust in their hearts and moistness in their undies right? What a hypocritical comment typical of a man-bashing waste of everyone's time. I'm entirely unsure of who your celebrity crush was or whose posters you had up on your bedroom wall when you were young and it matters not if it was male or female. If it was male, you just made a hypocritical bash at men because you have man hate issues. Just an assumption on my part, but more than likely because the men you do find attractive don't find you attractive. If it was a female, you just made a hypocritical fool of yourself by bashing men for the same thing you did. The woman was stunning beautiful and a pioneer of her time in fashion and glamour and the whole concept of her celebrity status and only reason anyone would know who she is, is because she dressed, acted and pursued the attention of men with her looks, body, mystique and style on a very grande public stage of the time in NYC. If you choose to pursue opportunities to man-bash that is your absolute right, but either way, in one way or another, you make yourself a hypocrit unless you have absolute zero sexuality. If that is the case, your opinion on the sexuality, attractiveness and complexity of her public image matters not one iota. As far as your generic, women looking at her in kinship comment, I will call BS on that one too, as there are women in our world looking at her in a way that kinship has zero consideration and would look at her with as much lust in their hearts as any man.

And to think this does not, or has not happened before? I have been around long enough to see abuse, neglect, torture and betrayal. This sad story is another "return to reality," made public by fame, money, fortune and the media. If this story did not have an Andy, (Campbells Soup), Edie, Bob, movies, music and money, no one would have every heard about it! This fits in with Marilyn, the Kennedy's, the Winchesters and so much more. I have met many a family with hideous, genetic and suicidal habits that destroy their offspring and everyone that follows in their foot steps. My guess is the childhood abuse combined with teenage neglect, created a desire for love, recognition and a strong will to be somebody. Unfortunately the atmosphere and crowd that she met, was a continuation of the miserable youth she left. Then realizing it is all the same, she took the easy way out. She ran to a dream that was no better than the live she left. Personally as a 12 year old, Edie was flat, thin, skinny and appeared used up. I could see that before puberty. Her energy was faltering as Andy didnt give a hoot, searching for others only made the effort worse. Now I lay me down to sleep was the last think she knew she could achieve. Shame to stick needles in your arm, God Bless...

When you find a treasure that shines and blinds the world with intuitive elegance and divine beauty, then your perfect star decides to become a severe drug addict, not all their fault exactly, but Andy could not compete with heroine, he knew that. If he wasn't in love with her, he at least elevated her intellect and value, was he cruel to her and not remedial in her struggle, yes he was detached and dismissed her and the addiction, understandably. At the pinnacle of her self destruction, she was filmed with a fake Andy while she was deteriorating and having a nervous breakdown. And yet.....she survives The Factory, she went from socialite to garbage life and survived, it was only when she moved home, back to her "friends and family" when she was directly or indirectly criticized and socially demoted. Then she died
