Best movie Warhol?

[mark0rama]

A copycat poll, with apologies to the poster of the movie JFK poll.
I've been obsessed with portrayals of Warhol in the movies for years. Full disclosure: I've never seen "Death Becomes Her," I just found that one on the IMDB.

Not counting Andy Warhol's not-infrequent appearances as himself.

1. Kinda of an obscure obsession

Any web links with info on Warhol in the movies? BTW, I live in Pgh., PA and have been to The Warhol Museum numerous times.

2. I can't say I've ever met anyone else interested in it.

As for your question, I just went to http://us.imdb.com/search and put the name Andy Warhol in the Character Name Search field.

On edit: I think I may have misinterpreted your question. You can also search the IMDB for Warhol's appearances as himself, if that's what you were asking about. I don't know of anyone's personal page about the subject, but have been thinking of making one myself.

I've never been to the Warhol Museum, but want very much to. From Wisconsin, Pittsburgh would be a nice little road trip.

4. http://www.warhol.org/

In case you haven't been to the website. http://www.warhol.org/
It is one of the four Carnegie Musuems of Pittsburgh.

I bet if you email The Warhol they'd provide you with info on Warhol protrayed in the movies. BTW, his family (brother I think) still run Warhola Recycling in town (nothing to do with art, stricly recycling cans, scrap, etc.)

Bowie had Warhol down cold.

6. I don't wanna vote, becuz....

I think Harris, Bowie and Glover each did a great job of "doing" Andy. Each provided something the other didn't in terms of getting him right. BUT, Harris had the tougher job because he was on-screen for longer. So I think he takes it, in the end. A real "superstar" performance.
