L'Amour, also known as Andy Warhol's L'Amour, is a 1972 underground film written and directed by Paul Morrissey and Andy Warhol. The film stars Donna Jordan, Michael Sklar, Jane Forth, and Max Delys.

A farcical comedy meant to be campy and raunchy, it was The Factory's version of the 1953 film How To Marry A Millionaire. The film received mixed reviews from critics and was accused of being too subdued and not as diverting as the previous Factory theatrical release Heat (1972).

The opening song "Theme From 'Amour" was written by Michael Sklar and sung by Cass Elliot from The Mamas and the Papas.[1]
