The Edie Sedgwick segment from PBS American Master's Andy Warhol Documentary

[@me67226]

Everyone is an awe of Edie ,she was an unusual beauty with a good sense of style. But man burning through all that $$ in such a short time it makes me sad that she blew it on Andy and the factory people.

[@AvecPoesie]

I find Edie and her potential juxtaposed to her actual trajectory utterly fascinating. I'll never forget reading her biography when I was just 16. My curiosity toward her has continued on all these years.

[@Sagittarius0nFire]

💯

[@iWatchtrashTV]

Omg same. I discovered her when I was in 8th grade. In high school I did my essay on her lol I'm bow 28 and am still fascinated with her

[@aubreyaragon988]

Lets not forget abandonment, abuse neglect by her parents.

[@aibileenadller3107]

she was sexually abused by her father as well

[@taylorcolonna457]

This leaves out her horrible family history that broke her brain heart and spirit long before she met Andy Warhol.

[@angcientrock]

it’s briefly mentioned in the video. in the quote where Andy Warhol calls her the most troubled person he knows

[@juanc.9814]

Edie, just look at her, she was a fallen angel in a confused, confused world, full of other lost and confused souls like hers, new death traps stalked her generation like misused drugs, it was hard to survive all that, hundreds of thousands fell all over the world and she was one more. But angels always soar and she must now be flying again, fly Edie, fly high again.

[@thatBRITTANYgirl]

Thank you so much for uploading! I'm glad to see a longer version of this. Although, it makes me quite sad. Edie will always live on in our hearts. She will always be a superstar.

[@sint0xicateme]

Once upon a time you dressed so fine You threw the bums a dime in your prime, Didn't you? People'd call, say "Beware doll, you're Bound to fall" You thought they were all kiddin' you

[@RetroAP]

Exactly what I was thinking. I know someone who is literally just like Edie and I can just tell she's gonna fall soon. Oh well I guess.

[@gymnast2890]

Cruel lyrics. He shouldn't be mad she left him for his best friend (Bob Neuwirth) when he was secretly married to Sara Lownds for 3 months. Blonde on Blonde (her hair was bleached, then she added silver spray on top) was almost entirely about her or her & Warhol....none of it kind.

[@aubreyaragon988]

Yep Bob Dylan tried to warn Edie about Warhol, sadly she didn't listen to him. He never liked Warhol from the get-go.

[@aubreyaragon988]

Just Like A Woman, and Leopard Skin Pill Box Hat were also about Edie. Along with Dramarama 1985 hit Anything Anything, and The Cult 1989 song Edie Ciao Baby was about Edie.

[@juanc.9814]

@@gymnast2890 True, a very cruel lyric to compose a great song that actually says more about Bob Dylan's miseries than Edie Sedgwick's miseries. I love Bob Dylan, but in this song he hit rock bottom.

[@Sagittarius0nFire]

An artist. The OG YOUTHQUAKER. GIRL OF THE YEAR 1965. SHE WASNT JUST A MODEL.....SHE WAS THEE MODEL. ⭐❤️💯 I LOVE EDIE.

[@ADAMSIXTIES]

She did all that work for Andy and he didn't even pay her. Too bad she didn't work for Mike Nichols: he paid Liz Taylor 1.1 million in 1966 dollars---8.5 million in 2021 money. In the movie she asked Andy to pay her and he said, "I did. Remember that time I gave you $50?"

[@SJ-ni6iy]

She was a beautiful mess, never clear who was using who in her relationships. Another beautiful, talented, tortured human destroyed by drugs. I can’t believe she was 28 when she died, from the pictures I had seen of her I assumed she was older. Heartbreaking

[@kimhayes3828]

Edie lived her life fully. So sad she didn't have rhe skills to take care of herself. She's now dancing with the angels now ♥️

[@theprettycitykitty9302]

So many songs written about her.

[@Elvisism]

Give us some please

[@angelcitystudio]

Andy was a vampire. I hate to say it but it is SO TRUE! Everyone else was just along for the ride, sucked into Andy's chic world. Yes he was a wealthy accomplished artist, but he was also a lot like Truman Capote or Harvey Weinstein.... He looked for young talent, beauty, artists... and lured them into his world, propped them up, gave them a platform and some notoriety, then drained anything he could out of them. And once he felt they were no longer useful, he cut them loose. In a sense he was Hollywood personified. Everyone that got close to him seemed to have a short life and a tragic end.

[@timgreenglass]

- thats why the factory crowd called him "drella" behind his back....."drella" being a combination of Dracula & Cinderella....

[@petejones879]

Crazy.. I'm in love with someone who has been dead nearly as long as I've been alive 😊

[@ronrendon]

No one wins against the drug called heroin......NO ONE.

Iggy Pop won.

Not many come back from meth either, and once drug addicts start injecting their buzz it almost impossible to get clean.

[@Maso777]

No one

Edie Was So Beautiful

[@ljuka20]

Господи, какая фантастически красивая молодая женщина с лицом Ангела. Просто эталон женской привлекательности! Но история ее жизни и падения в очередной раз подтверждает, что ни один мужчина, даже такой Мега-популярный и успешный и богатый, как Уорхол, не будет с тобой возиться, валандаться, спасать тебя от проблем и и церемониться. Не можешь соответствовать и играть по правилам - пора в утиль. Очень очень жаль, что не оказалось рядом поддержки и нужного вектора на оздоровление. Эди - ты прекрасна. Жаль, что ты этого не услышала при жизни.

[@Loretta-do6dm]

Sp many are never given the understanding they desperately need and guidance and still are severely criticisized for not overcoming broken lives by the very families who broke them...i wish my family could realize this truth and i wish the families of all children they did no want could realize this.

[@Doberdobax]

Pretty crazy how they all love to slander Andy. I’m sure he was a lot closer to her than the rest of these people.

[@pri22v11]

Warhol used her and threw her aside. Pig.

[@newton6850]

THIS IS SO SAD!!! SHE'S A LEGEND 4 LIFE

[@TheAmerican1963]

watching her is like watching a slow-motion steam engine train wreck............

[@laceymacpherson1228]

I don’t understand why he is so glorified. People make their own choices, and she was a woman. But she was a young, impressionable woman who to me was longing of love and acceptance. She had a false sense of that and he saw a payday.

[@raffy_rodriguez]

she’s glorified by people who have a tolerance for art produced through violence and manipulation, it’s like hacking someone to death and calling it art, edie sedgewick is all tragedy to me and nothing to be celebrated

[@stefs7141]

She was pretty insufferable though people tout her as if she was Jesus Christ. She apparently lacked any depth in conversation and never read or was aware of anything the whole crew of them seem like a borderline personality therapy group of miserable drug addicts with daddy issues

[@yeyosilver7067]

You're d. .mb girl

[@iriscecil8605]

He absolutely oversaw some horrendous things, some much worse than this. Bystander and enabler certainly. But he had so much ironic detachment, and he was so welcoming to vapidness. I think that contributed to his lack of concern

[@leedummett4412]

if there life is interesting enough, they can go on forever. i love it.

[@caligulapontifex5759]

Sedgwick could not be saved by anyone. The seeds of her self destruction were planted early in her childhood. Yes, he used her, but she used him. Warhol should not be blamed.

[@aubreyaragon988]

Agree. It takes two to tango in a business type relationship.

[@sandrabassett9923]

I think he enjoyed how drugs and alcohol made her uninhibited. She I get it but it would've been nice to see tell her to chill maybe he did and that's what sour their relationship Bob Dylan and lack of pay for didn't help

[@timgreenglass]

warhole used everyone around him shamelessly & then threw them aside for whoever else came along. ondine became a mailman. when Candy Darling was dying in hospital warhol never visited. he used edie up, then tossed her aside like everyone else.

[@mk91iw45]

Andy Warhol, the great void, annoncing today's contemporary art.

[@jhfkjsoi]

Sometimes you miss people that you never met.I wish i could have met her.i made a tribute to her in my channel.

[@daviddemaria3982]

When I was 31 I dated a 22 year old gal just like this. Gorgeous and troubled but oh so much fun and charming. What a wild 2 years.

[@SooziinCa]

Ciao Baby!

[@me67226]

The factory screwed her up along with her parents and death of her brothers. Andy yeah he played games with her mind. Those stupid movies she was above that stuff ,she needed nurturing And solid friendship. Andy was so tight with his money he should have paid her.

[@dynjarren7523]

I blame the Con Artist from Pittsburgh. What a sick series of films. He used her and then discarded her like yesterday’s newspaper. Like a piece of trash.

[@BacknMetro]

Kind of reminds me of Marianne Faithfull.

[@bingsinatra5283]

I was thinking Julie Driscoll.

[@matthoward8546]

She was prettier with no makeup...truly beautiful girls don't/won't get it.

[@missym877]

I’ve always been entranced by her, but I will never get what the concept of the factory was, or why Andy Warhol was praised. All of his art and films were just weird and had no real direction.

[@texas1949]

Poor Edie...

[@angieroushar4468]

I love her

[@judyneville8800]

Edie in her black lace lingerie and leapard belt and coat perfection 💜

[@mariechristinefurfaro5015]

Un peu le même style que Nico. Andy wharol a joué les pygmalions. Je connais moins Edie que Nico qui est devenue tres célèbre avec le velvet underground et la dolce vita son métier de mannequin et ses centaines de concerts

[@julianecho7987]

It’s such a fucked up story, especially with beauty number two, poor Edie :(

[@crazycatladyjo2688]

Yes you can that Chuck really hated her, it all came out in his questioning.

[@sammavacaist]

She reminds me so much of Kristin Stewart. Why doesn't she play her?

[@lepetitchat123]

Kristin Stewart should play her

[@carysbrenner9192]

[@ClepsidraSideral]

People love this sort of stories because it caters to their unhealthy jealousy of the rich, by masking their hunger for gossip by superficial empathy for this personage who wasn't all that special on her own.

[@ericdahl1514]

she was pretty

[@emilyloosli]

He funded her and worked with her and made no money on investing and she wanted more ... nobody talks about her pregnancy with Dylan’s baby in this time or her desperation with him ... please quit bashing Andy and Glorifying Dylan who was more opportunistic and more prone to lying! 😒 . you can’t say she was only Andy’s responsibility. Seems he did try to boost her. Then she needed to catch herself at some point. But she threw herself to a selfish depressing folk singer instead and the rest is history.

[@kirathecanecorso6776]

Choose your friends wisely but greed always wins with most. Lmao pop art Andy was a joke who used people and she wanted to be famous at all cost. A life lost to greed and drugs with no purpose in life 💔

[@heaven7360]

super star....what a bland uppity term

[@christinaraestott710]

Warhol was awful and mean spirited and manipulative and truly not that talented

[@user-yz9kz6vt9y]

I hate the moralising narration.

[@lionmouse8235]

a lot of dreams are just the devil's work. but she was a dream, that a muse could become a beyonce. real female talent/genius is a dream. hack = hate.
