Yeah, there wasn't enough Hayden in the movie at all. I really didn't care about any of the characters either. Warhol was too much of an ass, Edie was just to out there, and Hayden's unnamed character didn't move me one way or the other.
I think I only liked Hayden's character because he was Hayden. I was leaning towards not liking him, really. People like to rip on his acting (and I don't know enough about Bob Dylan to have an opinion on whether he was successfully "Dylanesque" or not) but I mean... what else was he supposed to do with that? He did well with the little he was given.
Thanks for warning me ahead of time how little he was actually in it so I wasn't disappointed :)
I don't want to see that movie based soley on my unreasonable, bizarre hatred of Sienna Miller. I swear this was far before she and Hayden had their did they/didn't they thing. Waaay before. I just want to slap the bitch.
I saw "The Virgin Suicides" on TV, so I think it was edited (isn't it rated R?) and it was good. Hayden wasn't in it much, and he looked so young! So wee! Adorable.
Ha ha, azurien is out of town at the moment or she'd be wholeheartedly agreeing with you about Sienna. I don't really see why people would hate her so much. Hehe
Awwww yay wee!Hayden! Though it's from 1999 so he couldn't have been THAT wee... I really want to see Higher Ground too, why won't they make a dvd box set of it already? It apparently only had one season :(
I don't really see why people would hate her so much.
I think I hate her for the whole Jude Law situation. Where she dated a guy and broke up his marriage, and then he cheated on her and she threw a fit and took him back (I HATE IT when women take back cheaters) and then it turned out she might've cheated on him too, and she just gives off this very "I think I'm the shit" vibe that makes me want to smack her. Repeatedly. There's also the delightful "Shittsburgh" remark she made. IN AN INTERVIEW. Moron.
Nooo, you wouldn't think he would be that wee, but he looks so different! His face is much, much, much younger. I don't think I recognized him at first.
(Oh, was Hayden/Sienna's sex scene as graphic as they kept saying it would be? Details woman, details!)
Ahhhh. I don't keep up much with pop culture, hadn't heard that stuff.
Heh - it was hot, I don't know if "graphic" is really the right word... that scene too needed more Haydenness. *snicker* Sienna was naked quite a bit in the film so by then it wasn't like "whoa, she's nekkid!" Hayden should have walked around naked much more. *sage nod*
I pretty much had the same opinion when I first saw the film, but after some research on Warhol and his scene I'm not so sure if the superficialness and the missing character development that I first criticized isn't on purpous because I get the impression that there wasn't much more than "I want to be pretty, famous and high"
Hmmmm. Good point. Diehard Edie Sedgwick fans are convinced there's more to her, though. She's compared to Paris Hilton with that whole "famous for being famous" thing... but is there more to Paris than what meets the eye? I'm not so sure.
Oh, I know Edie fans are freaking out when you compare her to Paris, but I think the real difference between these two is not who they were/are but the times they live(d) in. A lot of the things about Edie that are regarded as special and unique would be very "been there, done that" today.
