MENTION:Maybe, but not on George Hickenlooper's part. I checked with the Factory Girl director about Rush & Molloy's reporting, and he says (a) it's dead wrong and (b) running such an item degrades Miller and Christensen's dignity. "This story in the Daily News is completely untrue," he said. "There was no sexual intimacy during the filming of this scene. Sienna and Hayden are actors. The physicality of the scene was completely simulated. So I completely deny the claims. I know -- I was in the room with them. MORE ?

SIX CLIPS FROM FACTORY GIRL:The Weinstein Company has supplied the IESB with six clips from Sienna Miller's new film The Factory Girl opening today. She is on top of the world when she falls in love with a larger-than-life rock star (Hayden Christensen), the man known as "the voice of a generation." But when Edie becomes caught between Warhol's world of sexy surfaces and her new love, she winds up rejected by both – and once again, set adrift in the modern world. MORE ?

EPIC FALL?:In limited release, MGM bows the Weinstein Co. release "Factory Girl" in three theaters. MORE ?

BOX OFFICE PREVIEW:She experiences a meteoric rise in the counter culture world...but it all takes a turn when she falls for a young rock star, played by Hayden Christensen. "Factory Girl" is rated R. SOURCE.

FACTORY GIRL REVIEW:Hayden Christensen's musician character, an obvious stand-in for real-life Edie associate Bob Dylan, tries to get the girl to see through Warhol's pretensions, to little avail. The film paints the differences between the Dylan-esque character and Warhol in fairly broad strokes: The former's music is true and meaningful, while the latter's art is hollow. The result is that Christensen becomes the hero of the film, out to save Edie, while Warhol is essentially the bad guy. He uses the girl, disposes of her out of jealousy when her relationship with Christensen blossoms, and then leaves her to her drug-addicted fate. READ ALL ?

FACTORY REJECT:Dylan (called "The Musician" in the credits, though he's clearly the object of Hayden Christensen's drawling impersonation) feared the film would imply he was responsible for Sedgwick's death. (there's also a audio file where you can listen to Dana Stevens spoiler review) SOURCE.

MORE REVIEWS:Several more Factory Girl movie reviews can be read at: ANDPOP, SALON.COM, USATODAY and VH1.COM.

BOB DYLAN'S BLUES:So in the final version of the film, Dylan’s name wasn’t used – he was referred to as the “folk singer.” But they certainly used Dylan’s likeness, or as close to it as actor Hayden Christensen could come. If you ask me, Dylan should have been flattered – Christensen is much better looking than Dylan ever dreamed of being. MORE ?

FACTORY GIRL TALK:While Sienna Miller did her part for the film, Guy Pearce also weighed in on playing the famed Andy Warhol. "I just think he was somebody who was incredibly sensitive, almost too sensitive. READ MORE ?

EDIE, FINALLY:I thought the film relied too much on Edie's relationship with a certain iconic musician (Hayden Christensen doing a covert Dylan) and focused on Edie, chiefly as a victim. Read more HERE & HERE.

BOX OFFICE:MGM's newly bowed "Factory Girl" had a strong play in just three engagements. Pic drew up $95,291 for a per-screen average of $31,764."Girl," from the Weinstein Co., stars Sienna Miller as Andy Warhol's ill-fated cohort Edie Sedgwick. SOURCE ?

MORE ON SET PICTURES:I've added a few new pictures on the set of Jumper in Tokyo from JANUARY 30th These are from after they had McDonald's, the shooting continued until after midnight in Shibuya. Click the bolded date and thumbnails to view the pictures. Ty Yoyo!
REVIEW 1:For all the bare boob-slinging and slinky tights, however, Edie is curiously desexualized until "The Musician" (wink wink) hits the scene. Hayden Christiansen is dealt a thankless hand, he locks into the role during the terrific scene in which he meets the jealous Andy. CONTINUE READING ?

REVIEW 2:His Dylan is presented as the light and the fullness, where Andy is the shallow and the shadow. That may be a fundamentally flawed idea, but the film doesn't do much with it anyway. MORE ?

SHATTERED GLASS:And as if happens I can tell you from almost first-hand knowledge that Christensen's portrayal of Glass is pretty close to true to life. There're only two degrees of separation between Glass and me, because at one time he and the blonde worked at the same newspaper. MORE ?

FACTORY GIRL TOPS IN PTA:In the PTA race, MGM/Weinstein's Factory Girl, starring Sienna Miller, Guy Pearce and Hayden Christensen, will coast to an easy weekend victory. It opened at three locations Friday and is expected to deliver $25,000-plus per screen. MORE ?

BOX OFFICE:MGM and the Weinstein Co. had great success with the limited release of "The Factory Girl," starring Sienna Miller. The film from director George Hickenlooper grossed $95,291 on three screens for an estimated per-screen average of $31,764. It was the highest-grossing film at the ArcLight theater in Los Angeles and at the Angelika theater in New York. SOURCE ? MGM and The Weinstein Co. saw a solid start for its indie drama "Factory Girl," starring media darling Sienna Miller grossing an estimated $95,000 from only three theaters for a stellar $31,764 average per site. Bowing in just New York and Los Angeles, the R-rated film tells of the rise of Edie Sedgwick and her mentor Andy Warhol. SOURCE ?

FACTORY GIRL:Christensen may have an even tougher part, essentially playing Dylan without getting to admit it, but he's helped by an uncanny resemblance to the folk poet as a young man, as well as an ability to capture the truth and bluster behind a young Dylan. The various scenes between Sedgwick, Warhol, and/or semi-Dylan all have an odd, alluring art-project charge. READ MORE ?

REVIEW:She is ostracized from the Factory due to a romance with a Dylanesque rock star (Hayden Christensen), who knits his brow, bemoans the world's issues, and drives Edie off into the clichéd sunset. CONTINUE READING ?

MENTION:De Laurentiis is also working on The Last Legion, Virgin Territory and an as-yet-untitled underwater epic about a killer whale, written by Tom and Jez Butterworth. SOURCE.

MOVIE OF THE WEAK:Each time I see the movie I'm more impressed by how Christensen manages to portray an Iago in embryo who lacks the inner resources for true guile and evil. Just as impressive, perhaps more so, is Peter Sarsgaard's Charles Lane, who telegraphs his lack of infatuation with Glass's puppyish charm through a series of non-committal affirmations.. MORE ?

TIMES CRITIC TO REVIEW FACTORY GIRL TODAY:Times critic and movie reporter Alexandyr Kent is in Dallas today attending a press screening of “Factory Girl.” It opens in Dallas Friday. Dates have not been set for a possible release in theaters in Shreveport or Bossier City. ALL ?

"FACTORY GIRL" SURPRISES;:Its average of $29,159 from three theaters in New York and Los Angeles far and away was the best for an otherwise-slow Super Bowl Weekend that saw no other movie average above $10,000. "We are proud that 'Factory Girl' opened so strongly and we plan to expand it over the next few weeks. Audiences clearly want to see this provocative, sexy and compelling film," said Harvey Weinstein in an email statement. CONTINUE READING ?

PAL: FIX 'GIRL' FLICK:Chuck Wein, a filmmaker and close associate of Sedgwick and Warhol's during the mid-1960s, calls the movie, which opens today, "vulgar and historically inaccurate in a myriad of ways." Wein's lawyer, Chase Mellen, says "Factory Girl" is defamatory, and that changes must be made or Wein must be compensated. If no agreement can be reached, he plans to sue. MORE ?

FACTORY GIRL INTERVIEWS:Lawsuits from musicians, rumors of director George Hickenlooper getting locked out of the editing room, the recent question of whether the much-ballyhooed sex scene wasn't so simulated, and on and on and on. Nevertheless, the film is finally seeing the light of day.. ALL ?

UNSCRIPTED:Go HERE to watch Sienna Miller and Guy Pearce: Unscripted. Very cute interview! If you would like me to upload it onto the site, please let me know.

SHATTERED GLASS:Hayden Christensen, who played the teen Anniken Skywalker in Star Wars III, played the title role, and perfectly. He has the right 20-something angst of a liar caught. I especially like the classroom scenes, especially the end. Wonderful analogy, and expertly done. MORE ?

YOUR NIGHTLY VIDEO:Hayden Christensen IS Bob Dylan! It's no big secret that the unnamed musician portrayed by former "Star Wars" star Hayden Christensen in the new movie "Factory Girl" is not so loosely based on Bob Dylan. CONTINUE READING ?

FG CLIPS: I've uploaded two more clips today: the first shows Edie and Andy meeting for the first time. The second is "I think you're daughter is going to be super famous"! Both files can be played with the Quicktime player. Click the videboxes to begin downloading each clip.Thanks again Lina!
REVIEW:This is Christensen’s best work to date. Later this year, many other actors will portray Dylan during various points of his life in I’m Not There, but I liked Christensen’s work here. He plays "Dylan", or whoever, as a legitimate musical genius and influential folk singer. He was an experienced, confident, and calm celebrity, who bluntly tells Edie “You don’t know shit about shit.” One could make the statement that Sedgwick and Dylan did not have a sexual relationship, but it is difficult to debate that claim. In my opinion, many Dylan songs make reference to, or are altogether about Sedgwick. READ MORE ?

REVIEW:Her vulnerability is highlighted when, unable to find the love she craves from Warhol and The Factory, she turns to singer-songwriter Billy Quinn (Hayden Christensen), a captivating musician who represents everything that Warhol is not. MORE ?

HOT PRODUCTION STILL OF THE DAY:"Virgin Territory"-Hayden Christensen gets some tub time in "Virgin Territory" (The Weinstein Company, MGM, August 27th) We already went off on how hot "Virgin Territory" looks here, but when this production still (which we had to censor) came flying into our inbox we just had to share it with all of you. The film has been moved around a lot, with release dates ranging from last year summer to March of this year to finally August 27th. The film has also gone through many name changes as we mentioned in one of our first posts about the film. First: "The DeCameron: Angels & Virgins" then just "Angels & Virgins" then "Guilty Pleasures" then "Chasing Temptation" and now finally "Virgin Territory" SOURCE.

FILMING: EGYPT PRODUCTIONS has posted pictures while filming Jumper in Egypt.
FACTORY GIRL:If Factory Girl is opening in area today, be sure to go and see it!! Check HERE for showtimes.


WHAT'S WITH ANDY:By threat of lawsuit, that’s not Bob Dylan that Hayden Christensen portrays in Factory Girl. That unnamed “folksinger” is taller and better looking than Bob. But what was the worry? He comes across as the smartest person in the film. He can see right through Andy Warhol’s pretensions and calls him a “bloodsucker.” MORE ?

'FACTORY GIRL' TO OPEN:Locally Feb. 16-"Factory Girl" will open at the Louisiana Boardwalk Regal Cinemas on Feb. 16 for at least a one-week run. The feature film is based on 1960s glamour girl Edie Sedgwick and her relationship with artist Andy Warhol. The one-week run is being arranged through a partnership between Regal Cinemas and the Robinson Film Center. Planners are currently organizing a local premiere event which will begin at around 7 p.m. Exact screening times have not be set. MORE ?

FILM CLIPS: Dylan is never mentioned by name, even though Hayden Christensen is made to look just like him and imitates his vocal patterns. Still, if it's the movie's intention to present Dylan as unloving and full of himself, it succeeds. (There's also a podcast that you can download and listen to him review) SOURCE.

PHILLYIST:What's new and/or interesting in Philly theaters this weekend. Factory Girl - The controversial film about the life of Edie Sedgwick, which comes complete with Bob Dylan's official stamp of disapproval! Sedgwick is played here by Sienna Miller, and Warhol (oddly enough) by Guy Pearce. The film also stars Hayden Christensen, Jimmy Fallon , Edward Herrman, and Mena Suvari. SOURCE.

FANLISTING:I've created a fanlisting dedicated to the film Factory Girl and would love for all of you to become a member. Be sure to check out FACTORY GIRL and join us! REVIEW:Hayden Christensen also gives an impressive performance as the folk singer whom Sedgwick falls in love with. His name isn't mentioned in the film, but anyone who knows Sedgwick's story and isn't blind when they look up at the screen knows it's Bob Dylan.
READ ALL ?

MOVIES THAT ROCK:And Hayden. Oh Hayden. You've never sounded or looked so attractive and I only wish they would have made you sing. MORE ?

REVIEW:Enter a legendary folk-rocker (Hayden Christensen as a stand-in for Bob Dylan, who threatened to sue if his name was used). He and Edie click (for a time), and a jealous Andy drops her. All she has left are the drugs, the bloodsucking parasites, and oblivion. Near the end, she scarily suggests Liza Minnelli on an especially bad day. READ MORE ?

REVIEW:Factory Girl becomes a triangle in which Sedgwick, trapped in the spotlight she craved, finds herself caught between the arid, voyeuristic Warhol and an unnamed musician played by Hayden Christensen, who is obviously meant to be a certain curly-haired, messianic folk-rock icon. Did Sedgwick really have an affair with Bob Dylan, READ MORE ?

GIRL DECONSTRUCTED: Pearce does such a fine job, in fact, that the movie might have worked better as Factory Boy, with him as the focus. Especially when he matches wits with Christensen's Dylan figure, his passive-aggressive timidity against the musician's plainly aggressive contempt. A scene where the two debate how to film one of Warhol's screen tests – essentially a still life captured on film – is one of the movie's highlights. MORE ?

SOME CHARACTERS HAVE:Had many faces-Darth Vader : Weightlifter David Prowse donned the Sith Lord’s cape and helmet in Star Wars (1977), The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Return of the Jedi (1983), with James Earl Jones providing the voice. Jake Lloyd was seen as the future baddie (Anakin Skywalker) in The Phantom Menace (1999), followed by Hayden Christensen in Attack of the Clones (2002) and Revenge of the Sith (2005). SOURCE.

REVIEW:Edie gets into a relationship with singer Billy Quinn (allegedly partially modeled after Bob Dylan) (Hayden Christensen). Quinn doesn't think very highly of Warhol or his art, and compares Edie to Holly Golightly (the character immortalized by Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's): both are enjoying a fun, crazy lifestyle, surrounded by exciting people and both may have been victims of exploitation, discarded when they were no longer useful. Edie can't turn away from Andy though, so she loses Quinn. Definitely give this film a shot! The peace and love decade and the bizarre world of Warhol was beautifully portrayed through color, image, and music. The pace of the film was very quick. The turbulence that was her life mirrored the picture's soaring and stalling in plot. READ MORE ?

REVIEW:Which is as good a time as any to mention Hayden Christensen as Edie’s lover, a musician who makes Warhol jealous. He is based not very loosely on Bob Dylan, but goes unnamed because Dylan’s representatives threatened to sue. READ MORE ?

MOVIE REVIEWS:The other lead actor of note is Hayden Christensen, credited in the film only as "Folk Singer". Who Christensen really plays is Bob Dylan though the Factory Girl team is clearly quite fearful of being sued and thus never gives his identity away. MORE ?

REVIEW:It's a similar situation with Hayden Christensen as the slow-talking, too-cool folk singer who's referred to as either Billy or "the musician" -- Bob Dylan's lawyers threw a tantrum back in December, claiming the film blames him for Sedgwick's death, which is just a bit of a stretch -- except in his case, one can't stop staring at him. MORE ?

REVIEW:Edie also meets a folk-rock musician, Billy Quinn (Hayden Christensen), who offers her a more idealistic alternative to Warhol’s cynical, potentially exploitative patronage. Warhol sees Edie’s romantic relationship with Billy as a betrayal of their friendship. MORE ?

WE SEE MOVIES: We’ve just seen “Factory Girl,” and the moral of the story is: Drugs are bad. This is a terrific period piece. It’s a great glimpse into the era of the mid-to-late ‘60s. Hayden Christensen is taking a beating from the critics for his performance, but he’s ok. It’s really fun to see the superficiality of her friendship with Andy Warhol, and how desperately she just wanted to be “someone.” And she got to be someone – but with the worst possible demise. MORE ?

MENTION:Waking up during surgery: It's scary, but not common: Anesthesiologists won't be pleased when the psychological thriller "Awake" is eventually released. It stars Hayden Christensen ("Star Wars: Episode III") as a man who finds himself awake and alert, but unable to move or speak, because he didn't get enough anesthesia during heart surgery. When the movie "Awake" comes out, Pollard predicts, "It is going to do for anesthesia what `Jaws' did for going to the beach." READ ALL ? Thanks hydnfn4evr for the heads up!

SPECIAL SCREENING:Of ‘Factory Girl’ set-The movie “Factory Girl” will open for a one-week run at the Louisiana Boardwalk’s Regal Cinemas on Friday . There will be a special screening at 7:50 p.m. Friday. Organizers are working to recreate a 1960s atmosphere for the event. Moviegoers are asked to wear 1960s-style clothing, but dress participation is not mandatory. Tickets go on sale at the Louisiana Boardwalk’s Regal Cinemas box office beginning Wednesday. Tickets already are being sold online at FANDANGO.COM. READ ALL ? Read ANOTHER ?

HAYDEN MENTION:Guy Pearce (Andy Warhol in FG) mentions how wonderful Hayden is in a interview at TRIBUTE.CA. You can view the interview by clicking on the FACTORY LINK on the left side or HERE. Thank you to Lelia for the heads up! I've also uploaded it onto the website. Feel free to DOWNLOAD IT. Thanks Yoyo.

"FACTORY GIRL":|Separate visions drove story of '60s "rich girl"-Therefore, pages had to be cut out of the script to save money. When Harvey Weinstein then came on board as producer, so too came the money, and 35 pages were added to the script late in the game, so late that the film just barely made its December 2006 release date, screening in one theater in Los Angeles to qualify for Oscar consideration. READ ALL ?

HOW TO BE A FACTORY GIRL:In addition to Sienna, he paid homage to Andy Warhol via a waify Guy Pearce and he even made sure Hayden Christensen looked the part of the unnamed "rockstar" - and in fact, his name is never mentioned in the film. He's credited as "the musician" or something like that. MORE ?

BOX OFFICE NUMBERS:MGM's second weekend of the Weinstein Co.'s "Factory Girl" was strong. The Sienna Miller starrer grossed $184,000 on 18 screens, up 15 from the previous frame. The R-rated film boasted a per-screen average of $10,222 for a cume of $310,215. SOURCE.

REVIEW:Mena Suvari and Jimmy Fallon (surprisingly!) fill the supporting roles well and perhaps most notable in the supporting category is Hayden Christensen and his performance as “not Bob Dylan” Billy Quinn.

REVIEW:"Factory Girl" taps the enduring fascination of Andy Warhol and his world, yet it keeps us at arm's length. The movie turns into a triangle, with Sedgwick caught betwee Warhol and an unnamed musician, played by Hayden Christiansen Christensen, who's obviously meant to be a certain curly-haired, messianic folk-rock icon. MORE ? There's also a clip you can watch, featuring scenes, etc.

FACTORY GIRL:The director has a flair for montage, split screen and other tricks and a love for weird, obscure 1960s oldies (as Warhol, himself, did). But while all this is happening, some of the film's darker themes emerge. Citybeat Grade: B MORE ?

REVIEW:Hayden Christensen (Musician). Although Hayden Christensen’s role is being referred to simply as, “Musician”, he is meant to be legendary folk singer, Bob Dylan. MORE ?

REVIEW:And in its compelling portrait of Edie, it shows how dangerously vulnerable someone must be in order to want to become a "superstar." MORE ?

VIDEO CLIP:The enigma of Andy Warhol, the mystery of Bob Dylan - and of course the intrigue surrounding the tragic socialite Edie Sedgwick - marvel over moments of new movie Factory Girl - starring Sienna Miller - which chronicles Edie's involvement with Warhol in the swinging '60s. SEE IT ?

REVIEW:The same can be said for the supporting cast. I’m not ashamed to say it took me a full half hour before I realized the amusing little prig Warhol was in fact Guy Pearce, one of my favorite actors. And the single confrontation between Warhol and Edie’s would-be boyfriend Bob Dylan (Hayden Christiensen, stunningly good) grabs the audience by the collar. There’s a certain electricity in watching young actors play icons from past decades. It’s riveting stuff. READ MORE ?

MORE REVIEWS:A Bob Dylanesque character (Hayden Christensen) and the lesser-known real life person Edie Sedgwick (Sienna Miller). Hardly romantic or nostalgic, it’s not intended to be. READ ALL ? You can read more reviews by clicking these links: 01. 02. 03. 04. 05.

CANUCK TALENT:Has long lacked Oscar glamour-Canadian film and television alumni Hayden Christensen, Adam Beach, and Rachel McAdams all came close to winning nominations in the last few years, and it would appear they’ll be around a while. READ MORE ?

MENTION:n his remarkable 2003 debut feature, Shattered Glass, the director Billy Ray never quite came out and explained why Stephen Glass, the ambitious young New Republic reporter who made up articles out of whole cloth, did what he did. Yet watching Hayden Christensen's super-sharp performance, you saw how Glass built each ghost of a lie around a childlike need for approval, and the result was a generational X-ray into a new kind of office sociopath — a suck-up so pathological that he made his needs more important than reality.

ST.LOUIS NATIVE HICKENLOOPER:Deconstructs a trio of '60s legends-Early in the production process, the film's insurers advised Hickenlooper to delete any references to Dylan. So the character was changed to an Irishman named Billy Quinn. But when Christensen arrived on the set, he refused to speak in a brogue. "He'd spent months studying the way Dylan looks and talks, and he wanted it to be real," Hickenlooper says. "So I had to respect that." Despite the name change and the relatively sympathetic portrayal in the finished film, Dylan was not placated. READ ALL ?

REVIEW: It has been reported in New York magazine that the Bob Dylan-like “rock star” character who falls for Edie in the film (played by Hayden Christensen and listed in the credits simply as “Musician”) was, in fact, named Bob Dylan until Dylan threatened to sue the movie company. MORE ?

FACTORY GIRL REVIEW (9/10):Everything begins to go sore between Sedgwick and Warhol when Sedgwick meets and is photographed with Bob Dylan, played by Hayden Christensen, whose name was changed in Factory Girl to Billy Quinn by producers at Dylan's request. MORE ?

MORE REVIEWS:"It's easier being detached." But he's attached to Edie and shuns her when she's wooed by a man listed in the credits only as "Musician," played by Hayden Christensen, made up as a dead ringer for Bob Dylan (who threatened legal action if Hickenlooper used his name in the film). READ ALL ? Dylan - whom the film mostly dubs the "rock star." He's played by Anakin Skywalker himself, Christensen, and once the initial shock of Darth as Dylan wears off, one sees his performance is actually quite good. MORE ?
