New Restoration
Starring Andy Warhol Factory superstar and Lou Reed muse Holly Woodlawn, this musical satire about a small-town girl (Woodlawn) trying to make it in the Big Apple was nearly a lost film. Woodlawn had already worked on cult films such as Trash and Women in Revolt, and through her time at the Warhol Factory she would go on to become one of the most important trans icons of her era. Here, she brings an unforgettable charisma to the role of Eve, an aspiring actress who meets a wild cast of characters (including another member of Warhol’s Factory Tally Brown and the film debut of David Margulies) while navigating the streets of New York.
