a film by David Pablos
(all quotes are from the film)

Billy Name "People have an image of Billy Name. And it doesn't at all correlate with what I am now - this sixty six year old man who's just an old Buddhist hermit." |

Chuck Wein "'Oh can't we all stay together' - that was her [Edie Sedgwick's] answer to my saying 'look what he [Andy Warhol] just did. It was your opportunity, not mine. You know, we're doing a real movie because you said you didn't want to be in any more of the underground... we've just come up with this incredible script....'" |

Holly Woodlawn [Looking upward toward 'god'] "If there is a god, goddamn you. Take me. I don't give a shit." |

Ultra Violet "The first person I met when I came off the boat was Salvador Dali and that was a great inspiration and a great romance and a great moment in my life. And I realized, actually, that I was born surreal." |

Penny Arcade "Andrea [Feldman] had a lot of mental problems... When she would have her real breakdowns they would just throw her in a public mental hospital where she received no therapy. And then she'd come out and she'd last a certain amount of time more... Her doctors suggested that what would be good for her would be for her to have a job. Her parents were suggesting that she get a job which she was incapable of. But she did kill herself... She jumped off a 12 story building." |

Taylor Mead "You know everyone thought they were going to be so free... and all my friends died - people before they were fifty - but I... just withdrew from the whole scene... It all became just totally destructive. Totally forget about it." |
