Beauty No. 2
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Beauty No. 2 is a black and white film created by Andy Warhol in July of 1965.
The three actors are Edie Sedgwick, Gino Piserchio and Chuck Wein. The movie is about 60 minutes long and has sound. The whole movie has a fixed point of view showing a bed with two characters on it, Edie and Gino. Chuck is heard speaking but is just out of view.
Edie, in a skimpy outfit of bra and panties, and Gino, wearing only jockey shorts, engage in flirting and light kissing. Chuck asks Edie questions seemingly designed to harass and annoy her. Gino is more or less a bystander not interacting with Chuck.
The dialogue seems created adlib and no conclusions are reached in the film. The only conceivable climax is when Edie finally becomes so mad she throws a glass ashtray at Chuck, breaking it.
