Hickenlooper @ Frontenac
After watching several documentaries of Andy Warhol via Netflix over the past few months, and having read the Edie Sedgwick bio/oral history of the same name, I've been looking forward to director (and St. Louis expat) George Hickenlooper's "Factory Girl." Cinema St. Louis sends along word that the filmmaker will be in town this weekend for a special showing. (And, if you want to read a rather tart, early review of the film, check out Slate.com's thorough demolition of the film. Yowza.)
Here's the info from Cinema STL/SLIFF, partially IN CAPS!:
