Darth Vader = Bob Dylan


I watched "Factory Girl" this week. It was a good one time watch. Best part: Vader as Dylan. Worst part: Vader as Dylan.
I refuse to believe that Dylan was that noble and poetic in real life. This movie was made by a Dylan fan. For a minute I thought I was watching "Oh God: Book IV" with Vader/Dylan in the George Burns/God role.
I also refuse to believe that Warhol was that big of an a-hole. How could he be; he invented art.
Here's a song that supposedly was inspired by Dylan's dalliance with Edie. Ciao, baby!



Ask me if I'm a grape.

I watched Factory Girl for the first time last night.
It was one of the most stunning movies I've ever seen.
&& I don't call just any old movie stunning.
This was magical.
And I feel ashamed to admit this, but I didn't know who Andy Warhol was, before last night. Neither Edie Sedgwick. Although I had heard of Andy Warhol before, but never known what he looked like etc.
God this was one of the best movies ever made.
"When Andy met Edie, life imitated art."
