Face Addict

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Self absorbed piece of Warhol/New York art scene cine-marginalia, which probably should have stayed exactly that, seeing as no-one seems to remember a great deal about the time anyway.

Larushka Ivan-Zadeh Metro Newspaper (UK) Aug 22, 2008
2/5
It's narrated with ear-tearing pretentiousness by snapper Edo Bertoglio, primarily as an attempt to get over his past - he should have concentrated on getting over himself. Go to Full Review
Anthony Quinn Independent (UK) Aug 22, 2008
3/5
Contemporary footage of various pseuds, wannabe artists and hangers-on fails to establish what made any of them interesting in the first place, and if you don't revere the cult of Warhol, the entire project looks quite pointless. Go to Full Review
Nigel Andrews Financial Times Aug 22, 2008

3/5

Elliott Noble Sky Cinema Aug 22, 2008
2/5
Arty-farty, cheap and dreary, Edo Bertoglio's post-mortem of New York's Seventies creative in-crowd is exactly the sort of self-absorbed guff that makes people glad to be square. Go to Full Review
