The misunderstanding of commenting on biographical films is that the preconceptions use the protagonist's deeds to dig a big hole for themselves. This is human nature, but firstly, the stories that have been passed down are legends, and secondly, movies are never as exciting as life. So shooting this kind of movie is thankless after all. If it is just normal, then the result can only be normal, but the more impact of this film is actually hidden behind it.
First of all, measure it from a biographical point of view: this is a film full of respect, from the director's narrative to the plot setting, full of whitewashing and ingratiating to the protagonist (and his fans), and it is reasonable to shape Edie? Sedgwick (Edie Sedgwick) uninhibited and legendary life, no more negative transmission (the final image, the image in the drug rehab, washed away the lead); this is a watchable film, director and screenwriter Controlling the interpretation and processing based on factual basis (for example, there is no subjective judgment that Andy Warhol is a homosexual or asexual), showing the audience the rules and the original situation All sentient beings; this is a film with intentions. Obviously, making such a film well faces many limitations, such as narrative rhythm, the attitude of the main creator, the arrangement of the plot and the rationality of the facts, but the main creators have obviously done their best within their abilities, such as two. The reappearance of the personal initial telephone dialogue at the end, Andy went to the church to console and other plots, and then the remarkable thing is the performance of the hero and heroine.
Clearly the best character in the film is Andy Warhol, played by Guy Pearce, whose almost neurotic yet subdued performance is the perfect representation of the master of modern art Andy is still the protagonist of this biographical work in many film reviews. Then there's Edie, played by Sienna Miller, who doesn't seem to be so easy to please the audience. Of course, the aura of the queen and the goddess is a lot of pressure, but she still creates an unforgettable person. Heartbreaking girl, very detailed performance, isn't it.
Finally, I would like to say that the killing intent of this work is all buried in the content and the story behind it, and no country can carry forward contemporary art, especially pop art, to this extent, because that is the American spirit of the 1960s and 1970s State, the unprecedented economic prosperity after the Great Depression was shrouded in the remnants of war, and a generation of young people in the United States tried the value of life by squeezing their souls. , painting, video and other fields continue to burst out the brilliant expression of vitality.
Remember it must be made of regrets, and as the film emphasizes, she was born knowing that her life would not last long. The relationship between Edie and Andy is not love, but a soul partner, but Andy uses Edie's firework-like soul for artistic expression. In order to stimulate life and drive away the haze, she seeks all kinds of stimuli. She is a child who does not do more. Yes, the reality is much more energetic, and the hints that bloom in life are Edie's spiritual medicine. Andy, the art master, was obviously born for art. Everything in his life is entangled in the expression of art. The pursuit of art and the pursuit of everyone's approval are Andy's spiritual medicine.
The ending of Edie is not fully told in the film. Edie later participated in some auditions, but failed to win the opportunity because the performance was too selfish (this is her, when she can bloom, she must bloom, regardless of the consequences). She illuminates the world with a splendid life, but her soul is always fragile and helpless. Under her own negative shadow, she died under the influence of excessive psychotropic drugs and alcohol.
Coincidentally, the film's director, George Hickenlooper, died unexpectedly in 2010, also from an overdose of oxymorphone mixed with alcohol, and I have reason to believe his obsession with that legendary woman.
"My Spiritual Medicien" (to borrow this phrase) .
On February 12, 2014, Andy's portrait of Mao Zedong was sold for £7.6 million at Sotheby's in London, England.
In 2014, St. Valentine's Day, I left this bad review to kill the night.
