This is the Official trailer for the documentary ‘Grey Gardens’ made by Albert and David Maysles in 1975. In this film two, formery rich, New York socialites are portrayed in their home, which is the Grey Gardens estate in the Hamptons. Mother and daughter Edith Beale (big and little Edie) ran out of money at a point, the house became sort of derilict but the Edie’s stayed and lived a reclusive but extravagant life in that house for 50 years or so.
