Grey Gardens
“She was the girl who had everything - Money, good looks and social position. Her mother - a classic Bouvier beauty. Now they are living amongst the souvenirs of their lives. In Grey Gardens. This is their story. A love story. Sort of.”
Edie Bouvier Beale and her mother, Edith, two aging, eccentric relatives of Jackie Kennedy Onassis, are the sole inhabitants of a Long Island estate. The women reveal themselves to be misfits with outsized, engaging personalities. Much of the conversation is centered on their pasts, as mother and daughter now rarely leave home.
A hauntingly intimate glimpse into a decaying mansion and the lives of its two eccentric, unforgettable inhabitants. It’s a poignant, often bizarre, and deeply human portrait of a mother and daughter clinging to their past amidst faded glamour.
