Page Six reports that Bob Dylan wants to halt Factory Girl. According to recent reports (Sienna Miller’s Movie Is Acting All Crazy ), you ain’t the only one, Bobby.
Bob Dylan wants to send “Factory Girl” to the glue factory – charging the upcoming Edie Sedgwick biopic falsely suggests he was responsible for the Andy Warhol ingenue’s suicide.
The famed folkie’s pit bull lawyers have fired off a letter to producers Bob Yari and Holly Wiersma, and screenwriter Aaron Richard Golub, demanding the flick not be released – or even screened – until they see it to determine if Dylan, who they say has “deep concerns,” has been defamed.
Although Dylan’s name has been changed to “Danny Quinn” and the character is reportedly a composite of Dylan, Jim Morrison and Mick Jagger, Snyder says critics who’ve seen screenings say it’s unmistakably Dylan. A trailer shows Quinn, played by Hayden Christensen, wearing Dylan’s trademark harmonica brace and cap as he performs.
Dylan must not have seen the Star Wars prequels. Anakin Skywalker wasn’t convincing anyone of anything.
