Trash is too flattering a label; even refuse once meant something to someone. These dilated sketches merely constitute another Andy Warhol movie. This time the Master has tiptoed into the background as producer. The direction, writing and photography are all ascribed to Paul Morrissey, Warhol's publicist, who carries on in the gland tradition...
