Watch one of Warhol's screen tests. This youtube edition includes cheesy music, which you can enjoy or omit. This subject is Edie Sedgwick.
Edith Minturn "Edie" Sedgwick (April 20, 1943 – November 16, 1971) was an American actress, socialite, model, and heiress, says Wikipedia.
She is best known for being one of Andy Warhol's Muses. Sedgwick became known as "The Girl of the Year" in 1965 after starring in several of Andy Warhol's short films, in the 1960s.[1] Dubbed an "It Girl",[2] Vogue magazine also named her a "Youthquaker".[3]
She died of an overdose of alcohol and barbiturates at age 28, some years after leaving the Warhol orbit. Her death - in California - was listed as "undetermined/accident/suicide."
