Andy Warhol Exposed: Newly Processed Films from the 1960s

In 2024 Katie Trainor, MoMA’s film collections manager, and Greg Pierce, the Andy Warhol Museum’s then-director of film and video, worked together with Colorlab to process more than eighty 100-foot rolls of unprocessed black-and-white and color film left untouched by Warhol and his associates from the early days of Andy Warhol’s Factory filmmaking. Some 60 years after the rolls were exposed to light, what they uncovered was beautifully grainy raw footage from material shot for Sleep, Kiss, Batman Dracula, and Couch, as well as five unseen Screen Test portraits featuring Factory regulars. As an added bonus, five film rolls shot by Factory cinematographer Danny Williams showcasing Gerard Malanga, Paul Morrissey, Edie Sedgwick, the Velvet Underground, and Andy Warhol will also be seen for the first time.

For over 40 years Val Kilmer, one of Hollywood’s most mercurial and/or misunderstood actors has been documenting his own life and craft through film and video. He has amassed thousands of hours of footage, from 16mm home movies made with his brothers, to time spent in iconic roles for blockbuster movies like Top Gun, The Doors, Tombstone, and Batman Forever. This raw, wildly original and unflinching documentary reveals a life lived to extremes and a heart-filled, sometimes hilarious look at what it means to be an artist and a complex man.
