About this title: For their classic, 1976 documentary Grey Gardens, Albert and David Maysles shot hours-upon-hours of footage exploring the lives of their subjects Edith Bouvier Beale and her daughter Edie (who were affectionately referred to by their brothers as Big Edie and Little Edie), whose quiet lives on the grounds of a dilapidated estate stood in remarkable contrast to their quick with and extravagant upbringing. Though the brothers were unable to use a vast majority of the fascinating footage in the ninety-four minute film, this companion piece comprised of never-before-seen outtakes culled from the ...

Description: BRAND NEW. "The 1976 cinema vrit classic Grey Gardens, which captured in remarkable close-up the lives of the eccentric East Hampton recluses Big and Little Edie Beale, has spawned everything from a midnight-movie cult following to a Broadway musical, to an upcoming Hollywood adaptation. The filmmakers then went back to their vaults of footage to create part two, The Beales of Grey Gardens, a tribute both to these indomitable women and to the original landmark documentary's legions of fans, ... read more
"This is the second Documentary about the Beales and Grey Gardens, by the Maysles' brothers. It's true depiction of two women brought up in the aristocracy of New Englands most prominent. With such famous family members as (niece/cousin)Jackie Kennedy Onassis, it's seems ironic how these two women came to be impoverished. Big and Little Edie Beale remained in their 27 room masion, utilizing only 3 rooms. They once had over 20 servants, and ended up with barely enough to exist. Little Edie is surely the star of the second film and she seems to love the lime light. She still seems to be a 22 year old, very naive girl she was 30 years earlier. She is charming, very lovable, and seems to find eccentric ways with coping with her situation. I love both Maysles films about these women. You can't help but love both Big and Little Edie dispite their disfunctional relationship. The love between them is very apparent. It makes me want to go back in time and get to know and help them personally. The Maylses helped me fall totally in love with these 2 Beales."
