A Walk into the Sea: Danny Williams and the Warhol Factory
17 - 18, 21, 23 Aug 2008
***** Time Out
Director Esther Robinson's personal inquiry into the truth behind her uncle Danny Williams' mysterious 1966 disappearance. Virtually unknown today, Wiliams was Andy Warhol's lover and a promising young filmmaker. The discovery of 20 never-before-seen films made by Williams during his time at the Factory, with subjects that include Andy Warhol, Edie Sedgwick, Paul Morrissey, Brigid Berlin, Billy Name and what may be the earliest known footage of the Velvet Underground, reveals a luminous talent and a stark gap in the historical record.
Released by Arthouse Films.
