Film7.3BelgeselMaysles Kardeşler, 76 yaşındaki Edith Bouvier Beale ve kızı Edie'nin yaşamlarına kameralarını tutuyorlar. East Hampton'daki Grey Garden isimli eski malikanelerinde yaşayan anne-kız, yıllar içinde sürüklendikleri noktayı kendi ağızlarından dile getiriyorlar. 24 yıl önce annesine bakmak için eve geri dönen genç Edie ve kızından başka tutunacak kimsesi olmayan annesinin garip ve hüzünlü öykülerini beyaz perdeye taşıyan belgeselin Broadway uyarlamasının da Tony Ödülü kazandığını not düşelim.

Film5.9Zaman John F. Kennedy’nin trajik, zamansız ölümüne çok yakındı. Jackie, çocuklarına babasız bir hayata geçişi kolaylaştırmak için yapacak bir şey vermek istiyordu. Bunlar yazın mutluluğu, neşesi ve arkadaşlığın ve hayatın kutlamasıydı.
Film5.8BelgeselAlbert and David Maysles' classic GREY GARDENS immortalized the estate of Edith and Little Edie Beale, relatives of Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy, who lived in alarmingly poor conditions. But there is more to the story: it was Lee Radziwill and Peter Beard who first brought the Maysles to the Beales, when the two set out to make a film about Radziwill's childhood. The reels of that first contact were shelved for 45 years. This documentary recovers the lost footage. Anchored in Beard's recollections and artistic vision, we are returned to "that summer" in 1972, a seductive dream world and collage of radically unconventional creative personalities—Warhol, Bacon, Jagger, Capote—practicing the art of living amidst oppressive forces of class expectation and prejudice.

Film7.3BelgeselDramMother and daughter - Big Edie and Little Edie Beale - live with six cats in a crumbling house in East Hampton. Little Edie, in her 50s, who wears scarves and bright colors, sings, mugs for the camera, and talks to Al and David Maysles, the filmmakers. Big Edie, in her 70s, recites poetry, comments on her daughter's behavior, and sings "If I Loved You" in fine voice. She talks in short sentences; her daughter in volumes. The film is episodic: friends visit, there's a small fire in the house, Little Edie goes to the shore and swims. She talks about the Catholic Church. She's ashamed that local authorities raided the house because of all the cats. She values being different.
