Space

US 1965. D: Andy Warhol. SC: Ronald Tavel. Starring Edie Sedgwick, Eric Anderson, Ed Hennessey, Dorothy Dean, Norman Levine. 16mm, b&w, sound, 67 min. Print: MoMA (Distribution). Viewed at Cinema Orion, Helsinki, 29 March 2008. Forbidden montage is the Andy Warhol principle, but this time the camera is moving all the time. Eight people in the same space, linked by singer-guitarplayer Eric Anderson and dazzled by Warhol superstar Edie Sedgwick (1943-1971) in love with her mirror image. Reality cinema.
