A short entry from the Andy Warhol diaries: Friday, April 8, 1977 Went with Jed to see Sissy Spacek in Carrie (cab $2.50, tickets $3). Loved it. Finally somebody did slow motion right.

As I mentioned a few weeks ago, I don’t think the format of this site does justice to some of the flipwalk photos with a more horizontal orientation. So I’ve uploaded larger versions of some of the pictures and provided links to them from their respective pages. This is the first of two batches. To […]
