@coldbluerain They rebuilt the house! Extraordinary work by the set designers right? I believe that she won an emmy for it - the name escapes me at the moment but I will get back to you.
BTW...did you see this whole film yet? Its strangely beautiful.
Such a beautiful movie from every aspect. Ms. Jessica and Ms. Drew's chemistry was obviously the driving force behind it all, but every other detail was there as well!
it looks really good and drew seems really spot on playing little edie but i dont think jessica lange will be good as big edie. she seems to play her really stern which she did not really come across as in the documentry
It's like when Joan Crawford praised Faye Dunaway as the only good contemporary actress ('70s) and added that if they ever made a movie about her life, she would like Dunaway to play her. Then several years alter Dunaway did indeed portray Crawford... in MOMMIE DEAREST. Be careful what you wish for, I guess.
I'm a big fan of the original "documentary" and while I have my reservations about this film, I'm still really curious to see how they pull it off. The makeup on Jessica Lange is pretty stunning, and I want to see more!
I know. I feel the same way. But I have to admit that the sets and the makeup look amazing. I also heard that Drew Barrymore was a nervous wreck through this whole production because she was so terrified of letting people down. And I also believe that the creator is a GG buff so...cross your fingers!

This movie will be an emmy and golden globe winner. Drew Berrymore should get the Golden Globe.

I think Netflix might pick this up. For those who don't get HBO like me.

It is the greatest movie ever made. Better even than Gidget Goes to Rome, The Trouble With Angles and Gone With The
Wind.

Are they saying that they got the ACTUAL "Grey Gardens" house???
Goodness, the house has been
completely renovated/restored for some time now:looks absolutely NOTHING like it looked at the time of the documentary!

I know. I only wished that little Edie was able to see the musical. I think that would have made her life.

Remember in The Beales Of Grey Gardens they were suggesting Ethyl Barrymore could play Big Edie? Things certainly do come around.

Little Edie was asked by the Maysles when shooting Grey Gardens who she thought should play her mother. She answered "Ethel Barrymore".

I'm awaiting for the film's premiere. These two women have proven to the world that they are great actresses.
I'm quite sure that they will bring life to the two women life stories.

I'm guessing Drew took out her tongue piercing for the movie. I wonder if you can see the hole in her tongue when she speaks...
Jessica Lange is the epitome of class.

LOL Im sure she took it out.
Have you seen the most recent sneak peak? Barrymore sounds a lot like Edie. And the makeup on both her and Lange is remarkable.

Drew had her tongue pierced months after shooting Grey Gardens. She did it when was shooting her Whip It in july ;)
