HAYDEN-CHRISTENSEN.COM

(hayden-christensen.com) - Factory Girl is a stylish film based on the life of Edie Sedgwick (played by Sienna Miller) - an American heiress and socialite turned model actress.  Edie leads a fast paced lifestyle of drugs and alcohol as the main Factory Girl in Edie Warhol's short films of the 60's. The movie does capture the feel of the fast paced New York lifestyle.  Miller provides an excellent portrayal of Sedgwick - the performance is real, compelling and heartfelt. Sienna Miller's acting was convincing right down from mannerism and voice.

We're led down Sedgwick's fated path to a destructive lifestyle blowing through her trust fund until we're finally presented with a breath of fresh air - The Musician (Hayden Christensen) - nearly halfway through the film.  Hayden's character brings interest to the film among a cast of characters well representative of a sinking ship.  Hayden plays a deep, soulful and intriguing musician.  In this film, Hayden's acting was reminicent of a mix of James Dean and Bob Dylan.  It's no wonder Bob Dylan objected to this depiction and forced the renaming of Hayden's character to Billy Quinn, The Musician.  The director deserves credit for a well formed cast.

The film was riviting and definitely worth recommending.  I give it a **** out of 5 stars.

Deborah from Scotland   |79.69.150.xxx |2008-09-24 04:21:14 I have just watched Factory Girl and was intrigued by this man whom I presumed was playing Bob Dylan. I have never seen any of Hayden Christensen films before and thought his presence was captivating. He could very easily play characters such as James Dean. I feel though it would be a shame for Mr Christensen to rely on his good looks for parts as I feel he has so much more than that to give to movies. He should take a leaf out of actors such as Johnny Depps book and play characters that are memorable and therefore not forgotton. I think he will become more than just a movei star and I hope he will be around for a very long time. I will definately be looking out for his movies in the future. P.S. Didn't realise Bob Dylan was so good looking. Reply | Quote 0   0
