WARHOL’S WORLD
October 20 - November 11, 2007
at the Museum of the Moving Image
Early this summer, a person I very much respect advised me that it might be a good idea to wait before shooting BLONDES IN THE JUNGLE. Then I didn’t want to hear it…
But circumstances did conspire to make us wait (with at least the main part of the film), and now I’m starting to see his point of view.
Like, there’s no way BLONDES won’t be a much better film for me and Whitney seeing these Warhol films. Every film of his we have seen: Chelsea Girls, Lonesome Cowboys, Poor Little Rich Girl, Lupe, Screen Tests, Beauty #2, and Outer and Inner Space has significantly made us reconsider our work (esp. Blondes) for the better. For serious.
So see you dudes in Queens,

P.S. Tangiers Simona points us to this, which nails it with: “To watch a Warhol film is to rediscover cinema’s plasticity, boundlessness, mystery and possibility.”
