I'm not sure how much of this movie is accurate. However, if Andy Warhol is portrayed as he truly was, then he was no better than Truman Capote. The musician Edie dated was correct when he said Andy was a bloodsucker. He was jealous of Edie, of her social status, of her beauty. And the guy who went to New York with her was not her friend either. Disgusting. Poor girl. After I read her family history, I saw that she started with a deficit re her paternal genes. It's no wonder she had such a tough time. God bless her.
