I was bored and selected this series and happy I did. The really low ratings I find on here are ridiculous and uneducated. If you go into a series, movie with expectations you will be disappointed. Just sayin.
I never really liked Andy Warhol's art. It just isn't for me, although I was interested in his character. It is incredibly obvious that he suffered with PTSD after he was shot. In those days it didn't get treated. I felt sorry for this sad, morose, very troubled man. The series and direction did an excellent job portraying this fact. It is obvious that in his two serious "loving" relationships he never dropped the control or gave himself wholly. They actually depict how mean and nasty he truly was under certain circumstances.
Not being at the side of his lover as he suffered and died of aids was pretty telling. He was a very selfish person. That era of aids was frightening, misinformed, cruel and unforgiving. Men were suffering because of their sexual orientation and the single minded self righteous WASP population.
The series did very well depicting the sad, angry, manipulative side of Andy Warhol. He really wasn't a nice person at all.
