A birthday gift for Warhol that became queer cinema history—filmed live, edited in-camera, pure chaos.
In 1968, Wakefield Poole filmed an exhibition of Andy Warhol's work at the Whitney Museum. He edited ANDY "in-camera" as he filmed it, then created a collage soundtrack and presented a print to Warhol as a birthday gift. When BOYS IN THE SAND opened in New York, Poole showed ANDY before each screening.
