Product Information

King says he, Baker and Susan Tyrell threatened to quit the film if they shot a scripted scene where a baby was thrown out the window. Jed Johnson promised not to shoot the scene but King says "the minute we finished shooting and had left--they went and shot that. As much as I hate it--it really fits in with the rest of that over-the-top universe." [5] Reception [ edit ]

Not that Warhol ever knowingly played up his depth – cue one of his all-time greatest statements: “I am a deeply superficial person.” According to Perry King, Andy Warhol wanted to make a movie about "bad women and incompetent men." [5] PLEASE NOTE: In some European countries you may be asked to pay a surcharge to receive your parcel. Perry King later recalled "we actually all worked very hard on that film. Both Carroll Baker and I worked very hard especially... I think it was their attempt at a mainstream film... It was cast like it was a Hollywood film."

Perry King played a Dallesandro-type role and says the crew would sometimes call him "Joe". [5] Director Jed Johnson was Warhol's companion at the time. [2] Baker later said ""It had nothing to do with film-making, it had nothing to do with any other experience I ever had. It was like working on the moon. But he (Warhol) wanted me, he cast me in it, I wanted to do it, and it was such a big hit in Europe." [8] The lead role was meant to be played by Vivian Vance but she dropped out and was replaced by Carroll Baker. It was Baker's first film in the US in eight years. [5] Baker had been making movies in Europe where she usually had to take her clothes off. "I'm looking to get away from that", she said. "People don't realize you're acting. They just see you're sexy and they won't take you seriously." [7]

Warhol himself was a fan of a fashion show, going to see runway happenings by the likes of Halston and Saint Laurent. Colacello recalls that the artist would turn to him and say the same thing each time: “Gee, Bob, we should make this into a play.” He laughs. “Warhol came out of the world of fashion, and he never really left it.”

We've always wanted to make a big movie but we've never had the money", said Warhol. "You can't go to an investor and say, 'Oh Holly will improvise, she'll think of something to improvise'. And we love the polish of a professional film. If you can direct this, you can direct anything."

About this piece: Limited edition print of the iconic Debbie Harry (Blondie) wearing an Andy Warhol designed “Bad” tee shirt. Photographed by Brian Aris in London in 1978. Warhol was not, however, just a trailblazing artist; he was also a star with an image to match. “He really understood the idea of having a public persona,” says Fiontan Moran, assistant curator at Tate Modern. “Pop art was made from familiar objects, it was accessible, and a winning combination with his distinctive visual identity.”
