A love letter to the fans of the original film and to the two women at its heart, The Beales of Grey Gardens is drawn entirely from never-before-seen material from the Maysles archive. Edited from hours and hours of footage shot between 1973 and 1976, The Beales captures ‘Big’ Edie and ‘Little’ Edie at their resplendent, dazzling and exasperating best—philosophizing on God, love and war amidst the disorder of their ramshackle East Hampton mansion, with a montage tribute to Little Edie’s inimitable style and showstopping outfits. This intimate and transfixing portrait of the Beales, iconic figures since the release of GREY GARDENS some thirty years ago, brings us ever closer to the baroque mystery of their lives together.

Albert Maysles will be in attendance to answer questions after the screenings of GREY GARDENS and The Beales of Grey Gardens.
