Killer Films: I SHOT ANDY WARHOL in 35mm 🎞️

I SHOT ANDY WARHOL in 35mm 🎞️

Lili Taylor gives a fierce performance as real-life radical feminist and would-be assassin Valerie Solanas, author of the “SCUM Manifesto,” in filmmaker Mary Harron's (AMERICAN PSYCHO) provocative art world drama. Solanas ekes out a dire existence in mid-1960s Manhattan as a sometime sex worker and full-time misanthrope with distinctive ideas on how to take down the patriarchy. Introduced by Candy Darling (Stephen Dorff) to the Factory scene orbiting artist Andy Warhol (Jared Harris), Solanas seems at home among the other fantastic creatures and unconventional artists. But when Warhol balks at producing her play, “Up Your Ass,” Solanas lashes out, with devastating consequences. RATED R
