Andy Warhol's Screen Tests, silent video portraits of celebrity pals like Edie Sedgwick and Lou Reed, are already strangely enchanting. When Dean Wareham and Britta Phillips of the band Luna add a shimmering score, it all becomes a dreamy superstar swirl. 13 Most Beautiful… was commissioned by Pittsburgh's Andy Warhol Museum, so we might think of it as a posthumous collaboration between the king of Pop Art and a pair of pop-music craftsmen. Since most of us can only imagine the Velvet Underground's performance backing Screen Tests, here's our chance to sway along to the soundtrack as Baby Jane bats her eyes on screen.
