B C 20%? Really? I realize I am a laymen, but you professional critics really do miss the mark a lot. This movie, while not perfect, is in fact fantastic. It’s entertaining, but more importantly to me, it’s educational about a time I wasn’t alive for and don’t know a ton about. Plus, love Sienna Miller, but who doesn’t I guess, right? I do feel like I learned a lot about Andy Warhol-good and bad. Learned a bit about Bob Dylan. Learned a ton about Edie Sedgwick who, heretofore, I knew nothing about at all. Maybe I just look for the positive in things and not the negative. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/10/24 Full Review Shioka O So tragic to look at. I believe the real story is much more complicated and unbelievable than this film. Sienna Miller did a nice job and Guy Pearce as Warhol is just unrecognisable! Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/20/24 Full Review Michael S I thought this was an excellent movie and found the story profound and emotional at times. To see someone fall from such to potential, to be used and discarded like this is a real allegory to whom we choose to let into our lives. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/13/23 Full Review Audience Member George Hickenlooper is a quality director (mainly specializing in documentaries). His inspired cinematographer and promising cast bring the important true story about Sedgwick's experience to life here and there throughout the 100 minutes but the movie is too surface level with the subject. Guy Pearce and Miller are outstanding in this forgotten indie. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Poor little rich girl. Sad story on the downfall of a socialite. Dylan's muse for "Rolling Stone". Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Grrrr! These critics reviews infuriate me. It's not a damn biopic, you morons. It's a slice of life film covering the year 1965, when Edie became a Warhol muse. Much like "My Week With Marilyn," it simply depicts a short period of time during a weird and wonderful year at the Factory when these two personalities collided. Did we get into Marilyn's damaged past with "My Week"? No, it was just a story about Marilyn and a movie assistant during one week of their lives, just like "Factory Girl" focuses solely on Edie and Andy upon her arrival in New York. Miller and Pearce give outstanding performances, and we deeply feel Edie's betrayal when Andy becomes insanely jealous over her relationship with Dylan. For the film to have extensively dived into Edie's tortured past (which was referred to frequently and alluded to in scenes with her parents) would have completely diffused the story it set out to tell. Far from being a mediocre watch, I've revisited this film about three times already, and I'm sure I'll watch it again in the future.
