Factory Girl the movie is about Edie Sedgwick.

Many have criticized this movie about the misguided relationship between Andy Warhol, Bob Dylan and Edie. The two big-names, Warhol and Dylan, have become the world's legends. However, they don't necessarily always be the center of everything, including this movie. The belle of the ball is Edie Sedgwick.

When watching this movie, see yourself in Edie's shoes.
Factory Girl is, after all, a story about the life of New Yorker's high socialite in the 60s --Edie Sedgwick.

My first impression of it was good story line. At least, I get to know the life of manhattaners long before the Devil Wears Prada and Shopaholics rule the city in this 21st era. Honestly, I've never heard of Edie Sedgwick before the movie. I've heard of Andy Warhol, but only limited to his works.

One character is missing his personality. His story isn't explained in detail (prolly due to lawsuits and all).

It is the Musician. (supposedly to portray Bob Dylan)
He, the musician, act a saint, speaks in very peculiar dialogs and is no material for an eccentric manhattaners.

Perhaps, Hayden as the musician wasn't the perfect casting. or maybe, the musician himself was a flawed character.

Factory Girl, tells a life of a poor disrupted rich girl named Edie Sedgwick. She took off from art school cambridge to live in NY. Enter, Scott Wein. He took Edie under his wing and introduce her into the Manhattan's social crowd. There she met Andy Warhol.

The story developed into the life in the Factory - a studio of Andy Warhol - and the making of a Superstar - Edie Sedgwick. The confused relationship between Andy Warhol and Edie Sedgwick. The drug addiction life of Edie. The smitten Edie to a famous folk singer --the Musician. And The dysfunctional aristocrat family of the Sedgwicks.

Although the Factory Girl clearly giving a unpleasant reputation for Bob Dylan and especially, Andy Warhol. However, if that's what really happened or partially happened in the past or in the life of Edie Sedgwick, why criticized and refuse to believe?

Is it the bigger their names, the more pretentious the life they're living in?
Edie Sedgwick's laugh says it all.
"fluttery debutante laugh, that mixture of Warholian cool and little-girl terror," Cinematical
