Chelsea Girls [The Chelsea Girls]

Andy Warhol (director, screenwriter)
Ronald Tavel (screenwriter)
Nico, Brigid Berlin, Ondine, Gerard Malanga (starring)

N.p. Film-Makers' Distribution Center, 1966. Vintage studio still photograph of Gerard Malanga from the 1966 film.

Disregarding formal narrative, the film follows various residents of the Chelsea Hotel in New York City during 1966, presented in a split screen with a single audio track associated with only one side of the screen. The release marked a critical moment in Andy Warhol's career, as it was the first film he directed to receive international success and distribution, or even be screened outside cine-clubs in New York City.

Set and shot on location in Chelsea, New York.

8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus.
