Although I Shot Andy Warhol is a pointless, messy film, it's Lili Taylor who's mesmerizing, making the time go
fast.
She also gives the best performance I've seen among leading actresses of 1996. The director does a great job of putting
everything together and making the Andy Warhol party scenes look natural, an element that's been missing in films of the
last twenty years such as 54 and The Last Days of Disco.
On the other hand, I like Jared Harris' performance as the famous pop artist because, in a way, he makes Andy appear superior
and somewhat mysterious to everybody else around him yet passes himself off as an ordinary person.
All in all, the only reason to see I Shot Andy Warhol is Lili Taylor.
