Eating Too Fast is a 1966 Andy Warhol film made at The Factory. It was originally titled Blow Job #2 and features art critic and writer Gregory Battcock (1937–1980). The film is 67 minutes long and is, in effect, a black and white sound film remake of Warhol's Blow Job (1964). Battcock had previously appeared in Warhol's films Batman Dracula (1964) and Horse (1965).{{Cite web |url=http://www.warholstars.org/warhol/warhol1/warhol1f/eating.html |title=WarholStars entry |access-date=2012-01-08 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111219215924/http://www.warholstars.org/warhol/warhol1/warhol1f/eating.html |archive-date=2011-12-19 |url-status=dead }}
Production background
The British Film Institute catalogue says that the first half of the film is a still shot, showing Battcock eating an apple and taking a phone call, while apparently receiving fellatio. The second half of the film has more camera movement. Battcock's diaries say the film was made in Battcock's Greenwich Village apartment with Warhol and Lou Reed present for the filming.
