Based on the life stories of the eccentric
aunt and first cousin of Jackie Onassis (both named Edith Bouvier Beale aka “Big
and Little Edie”) raised as Park Avenue débutantes but who withdrew from New
York society, taking shelter at their Long Island summer home, “Grey Gardens.”
As their wealth and contact with the outside world dwindled, so did their grasp
on reality. They were reintroduced to the world when international tabloids
learned of a health department raid on their home, and Jackie swooped in to save
her relatives. |
