Legendary musician Bob Dylan's lawyers have fired off a missive to the producers of the upcoming "Factory Girl" demanding the film not being released or screened until they and Dylan can see it for themselves.
"Factory Girl" follows the life of pin-up icon Edie Sedgwick (Sienna Miller) and the various people in her life including Andy Warhol (Guy Pearce) and musicians such as Bob Dylan.
The Dylan character in the script (played by Hayden Christensen in the film) was changed in the film to the name of Danny Quinn and represented a composite of Dylan, Jim Morrison and Mick Jagger says The New York Post via Cinematical.
Trailers for the film however indicate the caracter still remains very much a representation of Dylan. In the film an alleged relationship between Sedgwick and Quinn and the eventual dumping of Sedgwick by Quinn, led to the Warhol ingenue's suicide.
Dylan of course is concerned that the film intimates that he was responsible for Edie Sedgwick's suicide. This legal matter adds to a very long list of controversy surrounding the film including a lawsuit over distribution rights and a complaint from the literally depicted Lou Reed.
