| Plot: | Believing it the place to start her art career, twenty-something socialite Edie Sedgwick moves from Cambridge to New York City in the mid 1960's. She is happy to get away from her parents, with who she has a dysfunctional but still dependent relationship. Early on after her move, the art goes by the wayside when she meets underground artist and filmmaker Andy Warhol. Warhol is infatuated with Edie, who in turn loves the attention he lavishes on her. She soon becomes the star of many of his movies, which often consist of her doing daily mundane activities, or answering questions from off-screen questioners. However, as a result of these movies and her association with Warhol, she becomes a media darling. Her relationship with Warhol begins to deteriorate when she meets iconic folk singer Tommy Quinn, who she characterizes as the antithesis of Warhol. The two men, who love Edie in their own way, make gestures to appear superior in front of Edie. Throughout this period, Edie's life was one of excess. The struggle between Warhol and Quinn in part led to the downfall for Edie, who ultimately had no one to turn to in her times of trouble. |

Goofs
|
Continuity: When Andy is on the phone with Brigid and he is looking at Edie's picture, we can see that his thumb nail is broken. But the next second, in the same scene, his nail is fine! Revealing mistakes: When Edie reads the paper about Billy's wedding, try to freeze the scene. If you read what the paper actually says, you will find out that, except for the first few lines that talk about the wedding, it also talks about some nonsense stuff that is copied and pasted all over the paper! DATE: Andy Warhol and Edie attend the New York City premiere of Darling (1965) (which opened in that city in August 1965) a month after Andy is seen watching "I Dream of Jeannie" (1965) on TV), which didn't premiere on television until mid September 1965. DATE: Throughout the film, Edie's cigarette packages are period-correct Viceroy packs, but the actual cigarettes she is seen smoking are Marlboro Lights, which did not become available until 1972. DATE: Campbell's tomato soup cans in Andy Warhol's kitchen cupboard have more modern label featuring upper and lower case typography, not the ones with all capital letters in use during Sixties. Fact errors: In reality, on the photo that shows Warhol and Edie in front of the New Yorker skyline, he does not wear shades. Continuity: When the musician is talking to Edie on the lake dock he tosses and shatters his beer bottle on the dock, in the next shot when he propels his motorcycle into the lake no shattered beer bottle pieces can be seen. CHAR: Edie's opening lines state that her "great-great-great-great uncle was a signer of the Declaration of Independence...". It was in fact her great-great-great uncle, William Ellery who was the signatory of the United States Declaration of Independence in 1776. Fact errors: Edie's relationship to Nico is depicted incorrectly: in reality they were friends and Edie warned Nico about Warhol's behavior. Edie's death was very sad for Nico. DATE: Richie Berlin says she's shooting includes Adderall, but this wasn't brought to market until 1996. CHAR: The newspaper clipping handed to Edie lists Billy's name as "Tommy Quinn." DATE: The 1966 song Psychotic Reaction is heard on soundtrack prior to a scene featuring a billboard advertising the 1965 Ford Mustang. DATE: During scene set in late mid-Sixties, Edie and her lawyer mention "tough love," a buzz phrase that didn't enter vernacular for 15-20 years. DATE: In the film Edie says her parents plopped her in the Benz before she could drive. However the first benzodiazepine wasn't made available until 1960 when Edie would have been 17 years old. |

Andy Warhol: [to Edie] You're the boss, applesauce! Andy Warhol: I think I'll quit my painting and, just make Edie a big star. Edie Sedgwick: Don't be jealous, Andy. He's nothing like you. Edie Sedgwick: I can't hate him! Billy Quinn: Lady, you don't know shit about shit. Syd Pepperman: [regarding Edie] What do you want me to do? Billy Quinn: I dunno. See if she needs anything... [walks away] I'd help her if I could. Billy Quinn: I sing about what I see. 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] That's nice, isn't it?

James Townsend: You're going to be bankrupt soon. Edie Sedgwick: James, you take life too seriously. How could I possibly be bankrupt? My grandfather invented the elevator. James Townsend: Then you should be familiar with the concept of up and down. Edie Sedgwick: You are so much fun. How come you don't spend more time with us? Richie Berlin: Because of my lips.
