Comment on “Diary of a Mad Housewife” (1970) by Pati D'Amico

I have watched this movie 4 times. I think it’s pure genius.
It was like watching a good play.Everyone-from the maintainance men,to the Jewish mamma badysitter..to the obnoxious husband and his bratty little girls told a story that was probably very true for the time. You could be well educated, go to Smith..and still be expected to get married and behave like the good traditional housewife(and give up your own needs and goals)Carrie Snodgrass was incredible as well as Frank Langella and Richard Benjamin.
I grew up at this time and things were just beginning to take off as far as women’s rights. It was a very complicated situation to be in…and still is even today.
A movie worth watching!!!

I would say he is definitely a confirmed bachelor, and at 73 has also been a “collector” of many things… including beautiful women… for many, many years.

Do not consume any form of chemical supplements.
The tea also acts as an immune booster to counteract the effects of more powerful skin care ingredients, making it difficult to control your urge to go for pure green coffee bean extract.
Try not to lose more than 25 pounds within a month with
Phentermine and other appetite suppressants.

Comment on A Word on the Paul Morrissey vs. Andy Warhol Debate by thomas hampton

To answer your question, I believe what kept Morrissey around for ten years ( not 20) was the fact he was given free reign to create the films he wanted. In addition, Morrissey also incorporated Warvel inc to manage bands, publishing companies, a magazine.. as there was little structure Morrissey provided the steely hand which made these things possible. In 1965, Warhol’s art was making little money, Morrissey used it to barter for legal bills, film equipment, studio time for the velvets, etc. In 1966 the Castelli show sold nothing at all. Warhol kept Nathan Gluck in an offsite studio creating “Warhol drawings” for his commercial clients just to cover bills. With the release of Chelsea Girls the financial situation had changed. In the 1970′s Fred Hughes began to create a market for Warhol’s art work while Vincent Fremont began to take over the financial affairs. Financial issues created by Carlo Ponti over Dracula and Frankenstein brought things between Warhol and Morrissey to a head and they parted ways.

Comment on A Word on the Paul Morrissey vs. Andy Warhol Debate by J. Ricciardi

What a fascinating read. Excellent piece, very thought-provoking on the subject of ‘authorship’ in general as well as the specifics of the Warhol-Morrissey collaborations.
It’s frustrating that Mr Morrissey seems hell-bent on insisting sole authorship (or auteur-ship) of all of their work, leaving out crucial pieces of information — including, but not limited to, the no doubt incredibly complicated personal and professional relationship he and Mr Warhol had over the years. He seems, for example, to share a common trait with many — but not all — former Warhol proteges — an absence of any ability to acknowledge that his association with Warhol served him, at the very least, the benefit of being discussed at all! If Warhol was such an untalented, lightweight, borderline mental defective with no skills, aptitude or ideas, as Morrissey constantly either implies or states implicitly, it beggars the question — what kept Morrissey hanging around for 20 years?
With all due respect to Morrissey, it’s not the first time he’s been caught out with promulgating an incomplete, if not inaccurate, history – kudos to you for seeking out other involved and informed sources to determine, as best anyone can with the passage of 40+ years, what ‘truth’ can be found…
