Description from the seller

Blue Movie - The complete dialogue with over 100 photos
New York: Grove Press, Inc., 1970. First edition, First Printing. Small Octavo. 126 [2]pp.
Original photo-illustrated wraps with light blue cover and dark blue and white lettering on cover.
Very good copy: Tight in the band, so difficult to open for the photos

The book adaptation of Andy Warhol's film 'Blue Movie' starring Warhol superstar Viva and Louis Waldon is the film's script with stills taken from the movie

Andy Warhol (via Pat Hackett in Popism):
I'd always wanted to do a movie that was pure f*cking, nothing else, the way Eat had been just eating and Sleep had been just sleeping. So in October '68 I shot a movie of Viva having sex with Louis Waldon. I called it just F*ck. (POP294)

-----
F*ck or Blue Movie was shot in October 1968 at David Bourdon's apartment in Greenwich Village. (FAW36) Although Viva and Louis Waldon do have intercourse in the film, they spend much of the time talking about the war in Vietnam, cooking food and taking a shower. The blue tint of the film was actually an error. Warhol had used tungsten (indoor) film but there was sunlight streaming into Bordon's apartment, resulting in the blue tint.
It was shown only at the Factory until the following year when all four reels that were shot were shown at a benefit for Film Culture magazine at the Elgin Cinema on June 12, 1969
