An average movie

I heard of Andy Warhol's experimental movies but even though they did sound rather boring and pretentious, since this one was included in the '1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die' list, I thought I might as well check it out. First of all, let's be obvious, would anyone really care about it if it would have been directed by another really obscure artist? I seriously doubt it but I have to admit that it was still an interesting watch though. First of all, it did help that I did read 'A Clockwork Orange' and saw Kubrick's version a couple of times, otherwise, I would have been completely unable to follow the damned thing. Concerning the directing, was it really artistic or just really amateurish? Again, it is hard to tell but it is something that might be said about all the Art work delivered by Warhol. And, yet, there was still something quite mesmerising about the damned thing and, somehow, he did manage to display the nihilism and the oppressive feeling from this classic book. Still, I'm glad that it was fairly short as it became increasingly random and chaotic towards the end. Anyway, to conclude, in spite of its flaws, I still think it is worth a look, especially if you are interested in Andy Warhol's work or if you are into experimental movies.
