Dylan reportedly tried to halt the release of the film, starring Miller as Sedgwick, claiming it defamed him.
Character Billy Quinn, who has a doomed affair with Sedgwick in the film, bears a physical likeness to Dylan.
But Miller told The Observer she was "mortified" to learn of Dylan's anger. "It blames Warhol more than anyone."
"I'm Bob Dylan's biggest fan. I'm mortified that he's pissed off," she was quoted by the BBC, as saying.
"She [Sedgwick] needed help and no one helped her. It's not that Dylan drove her to heroin addiction," she added.
Factory Girl follows the life of Sixties fashion icon Sedgwick, who committed suicide at the age of 28. (ANI)
