While she was walking along the street, she dropped her purse and a whole bunch of reds and things fell out, right? A cop car pulled up. "What ya doing?" And then the cops get the idea that she was carrying d***s on her. So they got out and threw her up against the car, her hands up over the hood, at which point her purse spilled open again and there're whites, there're reds falling everywhere! The cop who had pushed her against the car turned around and began picking up the stuff, so she wheeled around and gave him a kick in the a**, man, with all the energy and hate she could, and that sent him flying over the hood of the car. She said, "You f*cker, man! Don't you touch my purse!" Everybody standing along the street was blown out when they saw that. They cheered and clapped. Edie smiled. The cops were really uptight. They grabbed Edie. The cop who'd been kicked was really hurting. Oh, she just blew out a lot of people. She had a lot of energy, man. She only weighed about eighty pounds and he weighed about two hundred pounds, that cop.

^ Thank you for that! Happy Weekend ^_^

I wonder what do you guys think of Ciao! Manhattan? I was thinking of getting it, it does have a lot of photos and stuff of Edie herself when she was in the factory.. But they say it is really depressing and I don't know if it's right to watch someone being exploited at the end of their lives!
 
well, yours is much much better! because it has the real Edie in it, and not Sienna...
 
Scarlettlover, that was an amazing video. Just lovely. I cannot compare it to the first one because I didn't bother to watch it.....but yours was absolutely fabulous, darling!!!!
 
Love it Love it Love it!!! ScarlettLover it was great.You should be really happy/proud of yourself. the song was very haunting and all the video of edie was great. gosh i love her smile it just stands out.
 
Yes ScarlettLover once again it's brilliant. I loved that video.

Edie Sedgwick's screentest to be put on DVD.


PLEXIFILM RELEASES FIRST AUTHORIZED DVD OF
ANDY WARHOL'S FILMS

In conjunction with The Andy Warhol Museum, Plexifilm announces the release of 13 Most Beautiful...Songs for Andy Warhol's Screen Tests, featuring 13 of Warhol's classic silent film portraits. Subjects include Nico, Lou Reed, Edie Sedgwick, Dennis Hopper, and more. Shot between 1964 and 1966 at Warhol's Factory studio in New York City, the Screen Tests are presented with newly commissioned soundtracks performed by Dean Wareham and Britta Phillips.

A limited edition of the DVD is presented in a deluxe gatefold LP-style package with an exclusive poster and booklet. In addition, one frame from each of the 13 Screen Tests will be hand-printed as an archival gelatin-silver photograph in an edition of 100. One of these individual prints is included in each package. The retail DVD is presented in a slipcovered hard-bound package.

Between 1964 and 1966, Andy Warhol shot nearly 500 Screen Tests, beautiful and revealing portraits of hundreds of different individuals, from the famous to the anonymous, all visitors to his studio, the Factory. Subjects were captured in stark relief by a strong keylight, and filmed on silent, black and white, 100-foot rolls of film. The resulting two-and-a-half-minute film reels were then screened in slow motion, resulting in a fascinating collection of four-minute masterpieces that startle and entrance, mesmerizing in the purest sense of the word.

The 13 Screen Tests included are Paul America, Susan Bottomly, Ann Buchanan, Freddy Herko, Jane Holzer (Toothbrush), Dennis Hopper, Billy Name, Nico, Richard Rheem, Lou Reed (Coke), Edie Sedgwick, Ingrid Superstar and Mary Woronov.

Thanks for letting us know!

Now they need to make a DVD set of his movies. It's crazy that they haven't done it yet. They could make some good money!
