Based on true-life events:who cares?
17 August 2000
This movie contained enough little things to shock the prudes in the audience. Add a couple of fine acting performances and you still end up with a disturbing piece of 'pop' culture. Lili Taylor plays Valerie Solanas, a wannabe novelist, that tries to garner fame by shooting Andy Warhol.

Taylor does a good job portraying a complicated and highly -disturbed woman. Stephen Dorff excelled as the gender bending Candy Darling. Jared Harris duplicated Warhol and his boring personage.

Also in the cast are Martha Plimpton and Donovan Leitch. I watched this because it was on the Bravo Network. I didn't gain anything except being reminded that Warhol died later due to complications recovering from Solanas' assassination attempt.
