	Movies - I Shot Andy Warhol

I Shot Andy Warhol is a 1996 movie about the life of Valerie Solanas and her relationship with Andy Warhol. The movie marked the debut of Canadian director Mary Harron.

The film stars Lili Taylor as Valerie, Jared Harris as Andy Warhol and Martha Plimpton as Valerie's friend Stevie. Stephen Dorff plays Candy Darling, the famous Warhol superstar. Lou Reed of the Velvet Underground, whose anger with Solanas was well known, stated publicly that he did not want any film about her to be made, and would not allow the filmmakers to use his music; instead, Yo La Tengo plays an anonymous and somewhat Velvet Underground-like band. They played a pseudo cover of "Sister Ray". However, Reed's former colleague John Cale contributed to the soundtrack and spoke highly of the film.
