	American Masters . Andy Warhol \| PBS
		Where the main concern of advertising was to slip into the unconscious and unrecognizably evoke a feeling of desire, Warhol's work was meant to make the viewer actually stop and look at the images that had become invisible in their familiarity.
		He saw fame as the pinnacle of modern consumerism and reveled in it the way artists a hundred years before reveled in the western landscape.
		What remains certain is that during the sixty years of whirlwind and mystery that was Andy Warhol's life, the art world (and the world at large) became a more fun and interesting place.

	'I Shot Andy Warhol' (NR)
		After her transvestite friend Candy Darling introduces her to Andy Warhol and his circle of hangers-on, she fixates on the pop-artist as the sponsor of her success.
		Valerie Solanas, a flipped-out firebrand profiled in "I Shot Andy Warhol," came by her 15 minutes of fame in a spasm of hot lead and irony.
		Warhol (odd, moony Jared Harris) offers her a part in his movie, "I, a Man"; he pays her $25 and praises her performance but slithers out of any discussion of the play.

	I SHOT ANDY WARHOL - the iMAGAZINE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The ironic thing about Warhol and Solanas was that the blond-haired guru of art culture was always depicted as this insipid man who relied on his cosy circle of friends to help decide what he should or should not do.
		Here Warhol was the throned counter-cultural rebel and in its silver foiled recesses Solanas would meander and observe, her eyes occasionally catching Warhol's through the fog of sex, drugs and glamour.
		I Shot Andy Warhol is fascinating in its historical and biographical reality but forces yawns as it depicts a phase in time that has been covered time and time again even if it does have a flair for the more twisted and unusual.

	I Shot Andy Warhol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		I Shot Andy Warhol is a 1996 movie about the life of Valerie Solanas and her relationship with Andy Warhol.
		The film stars Lili Taylor as Valerie, Jared Harris as Andy Warhol and Martha Plimpton as Valerie's friend Stevie.
		Lou Reed of the Velvet Underground, whose anger with Solanas was well known, stated publicly that he did not want any film about her to be made, and would not allow the filmmakers to use his music; instead, Yo La Tengo plays an anonymous and somewhat Velvet Underground-like band.

		THE SHOOTING of pop artist Andy Warhol by the unhinged feminist-separatist Valerie Solanas is, weirdly, given cinematic endorsement in director/writer Mary Harron's I Shot Andy Warhol.
		Warhol is a lonely child at his own birthday party, while Solanas radiates a different feeling of neglect--it's a party, and you weren't invited.
		I Shot Andy Warhol (R; 105 min.), directed and written by Mary Harron, photographed by Ellen Kuras and starring Lili Taylor and Jared Harris.

		At the hospital, where Warhol was first pronounced clinically dead, doctors massaged his heart and operated on his ravaged organs for five hours to save him.
		At first, Warhol was drawn by the primitive in Solanas and by their similar sense of detachment.
		Warhol stalled by giving Solanas an acting role in I, a Man, which inspires Harron to show us, with jaw-dropping verisimilitude, what it was like to make a Warhol movie -- complete with stationary camera, bare lighting, amateur acting and very long takes.

	I Shot Andy Warhol (Philosophical Films)
		Under her deluded belief that Warhol was stealing a play that she wrote, in 1968 Solanas shot Warhol and some others in his Factory.
		Andy Warhol’s avant-garde approach to film was the motion picture equivalent of a circus freak show.
		After she was arrested, Valerie stated “I shot Andy Warhol; he’s is trying to steal all of my work.” Although that wasn’t true of Warhol, it may well have been of Valerie’s publisher.

		When Andy Warhol mused that in the future everyone would be famous for 15 minutes, he could not have anticipated that Valerie Solanas would earn her fame by shooting him.
		Now her life and crime are dramatized in ``I Shot Andy Warhol,'' which Warhol might have found the perfect movie title, combining as it does the deadpan, the sensational, and name-dropping.
		She writes a play and hopes Warhol will produce it, but her precious typed playscript is tossed behind a sofa at the Factory, and when no one will return it to her, Solanas begins to get angry.

	i shot andy warhol
		On June 3, 1968, at the height of Andy Warhol's fame (some would say infamy), a previously obscure woman named Valerie Solanas shot him at close range three times, nearly killing him.
		Solanas wants Warhol to produce a play she's written, but it's too extreme even for him, and he blows her off.
		Perhaps her worst crime in Warhol's eyes is that she has no style, by which I mean no kitschiness about herself; Solanas gives off obsessive vibes that mark her as unhip -- and, eventually, dangerous.

		As rambunctious and subversive as Nico is meditative and elegiac, Warhol is the perfect complement to that film as an evocation of a period and a warning about the future.
		Another serendipitous encounter was with the transsexual Candy Darling (Stephen Dorff in a fragile and touching fusion of high camp and deep suffering), who introduced her to the Factory scene.
		A scene in which he and Solanas find themselves sitting next to each other on a sofa in the midst of the jaded bacchanalia suggests that being an outsider is not a matter of gender so much as genius.

	I Shot Andy Warhol
		The docu-cine-slammer I Shot Andy Warhol is a concentric-circling toe-dabbing into the waters of pop art's ace flyer/manipulator and his doppelganging fierce feminist warrior/assassin — or, in the words of Jared Harris (the actor playing Andy), the story of "two sexual misfits who didn't like what they saw in the mirror."
		ISAW's emotional bleakness is in constant battle with the bright tones of the pop era.

		Taylor is the center of this movie (she appears in virtually every scene) and she's more than up to the task of carrying the film.
		According to this movie, Warhol was convinced he was a genius and allowed others to treat him as though he were some sort of diety.

		What was so great about I Shot Andy Warhol is how it takes a woman who most people would consider a psychopath and it humanizes her.
		We see what drives Valerie Solanas to commit her "insane" act of shooting Andy Warhol, and we come to understand why she did what she ended up doing.
		In other words, I Shot Andy Warhol successfully gets into the head of "insanity." After watching this film, I thought of a poem from Emily Dickinson: "Much madness is divinest sense.

	Variety.com - Reviews - I Shot Andy Warhol
		"I Shot Andy Warhol," the story of the radical feminist and Warhol fringe figure Valerie Solanas, who seriously wounded the artist in 1968, is an exemplary and dynamic work that goes about as far as a narrative film can in both analyzing a complex personality and portraying a cultural scene.
		Butting in on the invitation of her transvestite friend, eventual Warhol superstar Candy Darling (Stephen DorffStephen Dorff), Solanas manages to get a copy to him, and a particularly imaginative scene intercuts Warhol and his coterie giving it a listless read-through with snippets as performed by some drag queens at Nedick's restaurant.
		Warhol tries to placate her with a screen test and one actual film appearance (in "I, a Man"), but soon has Solanas excommunicated from the Factory for her disruptive behavior.

		The film begins at the moment in 1968 when Warhol is lying on the floor while Solanas is pulling the trigger on empty chambers, aiming at the head of one of his terrorized sychophants.
		Solanas was on the fringes of the Warhol crowd but was never an insider; she wasn't a "beautiful person" and her obsession with her revolutionary ideas made her too serious, too weird even for them.
		Ultimately, as her obsession slides into paranoia and she becomes convinced that Warhol and Girodias are conspiring together against her to steal her work, she commits her nefarious deed.

		Encouraged by Warhol's queerly noncommittal attitude, Solanas is convinced he will produce her play UP YOUR ASS.
		Unlike other films that glamorize it (THE DOORS, BASQUIAT), I SHOT ANDY WARHOL exposes the subtle misogyny that is just barely veiled under all the glamor.
		When I filmed `Frankenstein,' I thought it might be a kind of exorcism for Andy and all the people who are crippled and haunted by some nut-case.

		He - Andy Warhol - died in a New York hospital in 1987 after routine surgery brought on in part by injuries sustained in the 1968 shooting.
		For Solanas may only be tangentially famed through the lives she skirted - Warhol and The Factory crowd, Maurice Girodias at the Olympia Press - but from such scant pickings director Mary Harron and co-writer Daniel Minahan have fashioned a rich, funny, rewarding little movie.
		A bio-pic of Warhol himself would be difficult going on impossible, being cruelly reductive of a man who, in a sense, was the people he surrounded himself with.

		Provocatively titled to evoke the Wild West outlaw image of "I Shot the Sheriff," the film is astutely positioned to capitalize on '90s lesbian chic and to titillate recent interest in late-60s utopianism.
		As everyone must know by now, Solanas was upset with Warhol because the only copy of the manuscript of Up Your Ass, a play she had written, had been misplaced at the Factory.
		While Jared Harris as Warhol and Stephen Dorff as Candy Darling do, in particular, bear a superficial resemblance to their real-life counterparts, the dialogue tends to lack the wit that these people were known for.

	Review: I Shot Andy Warhol (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The script for I Shot Andy Warhol began life as a documentary before the producers convinced writer/director Mary Harron to transform it into a dramatic interpretation.
		Most of I Shot Andy Warhol takes place in New York City from 1966 to 1968, chronicling the period in Valerie Solanas' (Lili Taylor) life when she wrote her definitive work, SCUM Manifesto, was introduced to Andy Warhol (Jared Harris), became a fringe member of his circle, and eventually shot him.
		In fact, I Shot Andy Warhol is daring because it makes no attempt to soften Valerie's character or blunt the downward spiral of her insanity.

		Today, I received a letter from a lawfirm representing The Andy Warhol Foundation, which informed me that The Andy Warhol Homepage was infringing on US copyright laws and that in order to not get sued I was to close the website down.
