Edith Bouvier Beale (1917-2002), also known as "Little Edie," was an American socialite and the cousin of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. She gained fame from Grey Gardens, a documentary that explored her eccentric, reclusive life with her mother, "Big Edie," in their decaying East Hampton mansion. She was an icon of American counterculture and influenced film, theater, and fashion.

Conheça a história das excêntricas mãe e filha, conhecidas como Big e Little Edie, que viveram mais de 20 anos sozinhas em sua mansão, chamada Grey Gardens.
Esperanza and Irwin were surprised to learn Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis' formative years were spent on eastern Long Island. Born in 1929 at Southampton Hospital, the center of the Bouvier family life was at "Lasata", (meaning place of peace) the Further Lane estate adjacent to the Maidstone Club, where the family also had a cabana. When the Bouvier's first arrived in East Hampton in 1912, the place was far simpler than neighboring Southampton, a landscape primarily dominated by farm fields and simple salt boxes. Fast forwarding to 1953, Jackie married Jack Kennedy, and you know the story line over the next 10 plus years. Returning the story to East Hampton, we tie in the story of Grey Gardens, of Big Edie and Little Edie. Jackie and her sister Lee Radziwill literally rescued their Aunt and Cousin from the squalor they were living in, the subject of the cult classic "Grey Gardens" by the Maysles brothers.

The topic of todays episode are the inspections or “The Raids” as Little Edie calls them, from the different Suffolk County Government agencies that could have potentially resulted in an eviction from Grey Gardens for the Edies. My go to person for information on this topic is Grey Gardens historian and devoted fan, Terie Spencer, who joined me here on the podcast in episode two. Terie has been compiling information from the East Hampton Star for years. In addition to what Terie will share with us, I also did research by sourcing archived articles from Newsday, a daily newspaper that serves Nassau and Suffolk counties on Long Island. This will be a fascinating episode and you are sure to hear captivating information, time lines to ground you with the dates of inspections and renovations and quotes by Little Edie that are true to form, in her one of a kind way. Who wants a high ball as we listen in to this high stakes episode where the Edies were put to the ultimate test? Family ties and marital fortune would become integral elements to help the Edies avoid eviction. Bouvier bonds would help them find a solution to rectifying a multitude of health violations. In the 1970s life wasn't easy for the Edies, but they ultimately proved who they were, strong, steadfast and staunch.

He rode his bike a different way than usual one day and approached a house where the hedges in front were so overgrown that only two peaks of the gabled roof beyond it were visible. This house belonged to Mrs. Edith Ewing Bouvier Beale and her daughter Edith Bouvier Beale, aunt and first cousin, respectively, of Jacqueline Kennedy; descendants of a well-bred New York family, whose names were found in the Social Register and on invitations for coming out parties and debutante balls. Today, of course, Mrs. Edith Ewing Bouvier Beale and her daughter Edith Bouvier Beale are more commonly known as Big Edie and Little Edie. And they are known not for being in society, but rather for shunning all of society when high society wouldn't accept their eccentricities. They chose instead to hole up in a neglected East Hampton mansion for more than twenty-five years, only opening to door to a few guests, one of whom was Torre. They were made famous, along with Jerry, and that rotting mansion called Grey Gardens, by the 1975 Albert and David Maysles documentary of the same name that became a cult sensation. So grab some Cheddar Cheese and join Zachary Ford and I as we celebrate The Marble Faun of Grey Gardens.
Pack your bags darling listeners as Heyd and Erin journey to East Hampton to explore a guilty pleasure film called Gray Gardens, a documentary featuring Big and Little Edie, a mother-daughter duo who represent a riches-to-rags story. As outsiders in their community, the Beales have cemented themselves as camp icons with a penchant for performing their musical talents whilst swimming in the ocean of nostalgic reverie. As we dig into themes of arrested development, the aesthetics of decay, and exhibitionism, you too can have your cake and eat, chew and masticate it too!

For Video Edition, Please Click and Subscribe Here: https://www.youtube.com/live/2-aKo25XPkg?feature=share The Marble Faun of Grey Gardens is Jerry Torre's touching and at times haunting memoir about his teenage days as caretaker of Grey Gardens, the now-celebrated mansion chronicled in the iconic documentary Grey Gardens and two feature-length films. The book, co-written with film historian Tony Maietta, is a behind-the-scenes look at "Big Edie" and "Little Edie" and their bizarre and reclusive life of squalor amidst the tremendous wealth of East Hampton, the family bond that developed between Jerry and them, and the day everything was turned upside down forever with the arrival of documentary filmmakers Albert and David Maysles. What begins as a teenager coming upon what he assumed was an old, abandoned house takes on new dimensions when suddenly Edie appears on the porch draped in a shower curtain with an apron tied around her head. "You must be the Marble Faun," she tells the stunned Jerry. Rather than chasing him away as he at first feared, she invites Jerry to meet her mother upstairs. So begins a strange and unusually close friendship with the two women as Jerry takes on the task of volunteer gardener of their estate, often sleeping nights in their living room and staying out of the way of mother-daughter arguments. The Marble Faun of Grey Gardens is Jerry's look back on the filming of Grey Gardens but also how the notoriety the movie achieved changed his life along with the Beales as their private world is shared with audiences everywhere. Tony Maietta arrived in Los Angeles in the 1990s as a fresh faced twenty-something, eager to discover the “classic' Hollywood that he fell in love with as a child. Alas, he was disappointed.

I am very excited to welcome today's guest Billy Kalbacher to the podcast. He's the very Billy, who Little Edie refers to in The Beales of Grey Gardens. Billy shares with us some of his personal experiences and cherished memories with both Mother (Big Edie) and Little Edie. As a boy summering in East Hampton he was used to hearing about and seeing the Cat Woman's House. When he got to know the cat ladies in person by a crazy twist of fate, it opened his heart to these two unique women in East Hampton, and gave him the opportunity to help those in need of assistance. Decades later, after Billy raised his family in East Hampton, the long time resident continues to give back to the community he loves through the work of the Clamshell Organization. Let's step back in time with Billy as we listen in, pet the cats and boil some corn. You can get in touch with Fern via email at Fernhbern@yahoo.com https://www.clamshellfoundation.org/about

Hadley and Alyssa uncover the fascinating history of Grey Gardens, the grand East Hampton estate of Big Edie and Little Edie Beale—eccentric aunt and cousin of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Lee Radziwill—that was made famous in a 1975 documentary by Albert and David Maysles. After spotlighting the iconic women and their home, the co-hosts unpack its gradual downfall: Over time, the property fell into disrepair and was overrun by cats and raccoons (and perhaps something else not of this realm?). Little Edie held onto the property until two years after her mother died in 1977. Big Edie's spirit is said to watch over the house. Among the believers is author and Washington Post journalist Sally Quinn, who purchased the home from Little Edie in 1979 and swears it's haunted.

Happy Halloweenies, to all our little bunniculas. This week we are having a hauntingly good time with Emmy and Oscar-nominee JoBeth Williams. You Might Know Her From The Big Chill, Kramer vs. Kramer, American Dreamer, Wyatt Earp, Frasier, Stir Crazy, Jungle 2 Jungle, Dexter, Poltergeist, and Poltergeist II: The Other Side. We talked to JoBeth about the Poltergeist films with shocking reveals about the props, Zelda Rubinstein, and the grueling stunts that left her bloody. We also dug into her theatre beginnings with Raúl Juliá at Williamstown, her nude scene in her film debut, Kramer vs. Kramer, stealing from Little Edie in Me, Myself, and I, headlining the ‘80s rom-com American Dreamer on location in Paris, and the incestuous dating history of The Big Chill cast.

This Augean task (following Wood following Bellow) mandated, then, that Martin purchase Denis de Rougemont's Love In The Western World, which comes adorned with a rather ejaculatory blurb from Updike himself. Martin finds the book immediately intoxicating--after all it's from a time before jargon had colonized scholarship, when criticism was an enchanting expedition. It explores troubadours and heretical Catholic sects, there's something about love itself being a cult of suffering and death, but Martin doesn't trouble himself over abstractions and theories. He reads with appetite, as though the book were a novel unfurling grandly before him. De Rougemont performs a wide-eyed reading through of the myth of Tristan and Isolde; so Martin goes to Dunkin Donuts and listens to Wagner in the drive-thru. Oh, right, the Tristan chord; slightly more intriguing in Radiohead's iteration, perhaps. He loses interest, switches to Uncle Neil, beautiful bright eunuch sludge sounds: once there was a friend of mine who died a thousand deaths. He's supposed to be thinking about that flat Nord again, though--it's Sunday: time, as Lauren says, to get on the horn. Rosie Gray's coming on, another supplicant, buzzing with ideas about My Struggle ˆvia Grey Gardens. Cathars and askesis are so much chatter right now. Myth, enchantment, wonder, spells--his iced coffee gives him this little litany. Rosie and Lauren, it turns out, are ready for wonderment and mythos. They rhapsodize on Karl Ove's diluvian fantasies and guillotine imaginings as they work their way towards the squalid paternal domain. Grandma's delirious, the sofa's caked with shit, this is almost a horror movie. Rosie delivers her thoughts on the rich decrepitude of Little Edie and Big Edie and helpfully reminds Martin Anus of Martin Amis's hideous and excruciating orthodontia (as featured in Experience, the only book, we learn, that has induced tears in M. Anus). They realize that Karl Ove probably can't tolerate the existence of Belgium. Lauren makes some perceptive connections between literary flaneurs and detective fiction. And Martin Anus tries to show that this episode's passage traces a shift, in Karl Ove's mind---a shift, perhaps, that's also embodied in the novel form itself--from the mythically grand to the mundanely specific.
In this episode, we dive into Season 1, Episode 2: Julie and Eric...Could It Be Love?, which we think is a bit misleading of a title. We talk about Eric's nearly-nakedness, fragrance commercial considerations, French braids, and the innovations in sportswear since 1992. We lament on how the message of Heather's song is still (sadly) applicable to today. We also question Eric's headwear choice--again--and Becky's Little Edie-meets-Ren Fair look.

In this episode of the Bowery Boys, Greg digs into the back story of one of the most famous documentaries ever made – Grey Gardens. The film, made by brother directing team Albert and David Maysles, looks at the lives of two former society women leading a life of seclusion in a rundown old mansion in the Hamptons. Those of you who have seen the film – or the Broadway musical or the HBO film inspired by the documentary – know that it possesses a strange, timeless quality. Mrs Edith Bouvier Beale (aka Big Edie) and her daughter Miss Edith Bouvier Beale (aka Little Edie) live in a pocket universe, in deteriorating circumstances, but they themselves remain poised, witty, well read. But if our histories truly make us who we are, then to understand these two extraordinary and eccentric women, we need to understand the historical moments that put them on this path. And that is a story of New York City – of debutante balls, Fifth Avenue, Tin Pan Alley and the changing roles of women. And it’s a story of the Bouviers, who represent here the hundreds of wealthy, upwardly mobile families, trying to maintain their status in a fluctuating world of social registers and stock market crashes. This is story about keeping up appearances and the consequences of following your heart. FEATURING: A very special guest! The Marble Faun himself -- Jerry Torre, who swings by the show to share his recollection of these fascinating women. boweryboyshistory.com Support the show.

This week on StoryWeb: Albert and David Maysles’s film Grey Gardens Watching the 1975 documentary film Grey Gardens is like slowing down to watch an accident in the next lane over. You know you shouldn’t, but you simply can’t help yourself. And if you’re really a rubbernecker like me (and apparently like tens of thousands of other Americans), you line up to watch the 2009 HBO Jessica Lange/Drew Barrymore biopic, which provides the backstory to the original film. Clearly, the 1975 documentary filmmakers Albert and David Maysles were on to something. What is it about Big Edie and Little Edie, the mother-daughter duo who languished in squalor as their formerly grand Hamptons estate, Grey Gardens, fell into disrepair? Why do we want to watch mentally ill, codependent hoarders living out the exact opposite of The Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous? The Kardashians, they’re not. The Maysles brothers’ idea for a documentary was spurred initially by their interest in the Bouvier family and then by national reports of the deplorable conditions in which the two women lived. In the summer of 1972, Big Edie’s niece Jacqueline Onassis intervened in an effort to make the house more habitable. When the Maysles brothers approached the two women – Edith Ewing Bouvier Beale and her daughter, Edith Bouvier Beale – about making the film, both Big Edie and Little Edie readily agreed. Ever ones for performing in the spotlight, the two women immediately fell in line, presumably because they thought this could finally be Little Edie’s big break into show business. It’s true that Grey Gardens was once a truly lavish estate, a fourteen-room mansion that could hold its own among the other Long Island estates in the Hamptons. And yes, it’s true that Big Edie was aunt to Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis and had fond childhood memories of her niece. And it’s even true that Jackie came to Grey Gardens to visit Big Edie and Little Edie after their surroundings had begun to rot around them and that she stepped in with financial assistance to help rectify the situation. The Edies’ pretensions were grounded – at least in part – in some reality. But they also fancied themselves performers, with their shared sights set on Little Edie making it as a showgirl. When Little Edie decides at the last minute not to pursue her audition with Max Gordon, a successful Broadway producer, Big Edie blames her severely for blowing her big chance – or perhaps Little Edie accuses Big Edie of pressuring her to move back to Grey Gardens. It’s something they never quite resolve between themselves, but both ultimately believe that Little Edie lost her chance at the big time. Both women obviously have a flair for the dramatic, and Little Edie enjoys getting up outlandish costumes from scraps of clothing and fabric she finds around Grey Gardens. It is very much as if she is a four-year-old playing dress-up with the grown-up clothes and shoes. And even though she is in her thirties when she does this, she is – in her peculiar Little Edie way – provocative, charming, compelling. We can’t help but watch. If watching the original documentary and the HBO film isn’t enough for you, you might want to visit Grey Gardens Online, a website devoted to Big Edie and Little Edie. You should also check out Sara and Rebekah Maysles’s book Grey Gardens, which includes illustrations, photographs, film stills, production notes, and the like along with transcripts of the two women’s stories. The book comes with a 60-minute CD, which contains conversations with the Beales and their friends, songs and poetry recited by the two Edies, and audio of the Beales during and after watching the film for the first time. The New York Times provides an interesting account of the property itself, noting that Little Edie sold the mansion in 1979 to Sally Quinn and Benjamin C. Bradlee, former editor of The Washington Post. Quinn and Bradlee loved to entertain, and their summers at Grey Gardens found them hosting the likes of Lauren Bacall and Norman Lear. And if you visit the “5 Things You Didn’t Know About the Classic Documentary Grey Gardens,” you’ll even learn that, for a cool $250,000, you can rent out the restored mansion for the summer. HBO’s official Grey Gardens page has links to short video clips and stills from the film, including a featurette on the making of the 2009 film. Visit thestoryweb.com/Maysles for links to all these resources and to watch clips from the original 1975 documentary. Then watch some of the backstory from the 2009 HBO film, when the two Edies and Grey Gardens were in their prime.
Bröderna Maysles dokumentär Grey gardens från 1975 blev sent omsider en riktig kultfilm som blev musikal på Broadway, spelfilm och teveserie. Katarina Wikars om den risigaste kåken i hela fashionabla East Hampton på Long Island utanför New York där Big Edie och Little Edie tillsammans med tvättbjörnarna på vinden och ett tjog katter genomlever sina dagar och minns bättre tider. Det stundar utmätning och sanering. Då är det bra att vara nära släkt med Jackie Onassis, som skickar några som kommer och röjer upp. Och en annan dag kommer två dokumentärfilmsbröder dit, bröderna Maysles. De har gjort dokumentärfilmer förut, de verkar i genren Direct Cinema, vilket betyder inga berättarröster eller raka intervjuer eller förklaringar. Så de är liksom bara där, i Grey gardens, i sex veckor. Och hundratals filmade timmar blir en och en halv timme film som kommer att gå till historien om än långsamt.

Walter Newkirk, author, joins the show tonight to talk about his books! memoraBEALEia : A Private Scrapbook about Edie Beale of Grey Gardens celebrates and pays tribute to Edith "Little Edie" Bouvier Beale. Miss Beale was the first cousin of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, and is best known for her participation in the famous documentary Grey Gardens (1976). In the 1970s, Edie Beale and her mother Edith Bouvier Beale -- the respective cousin and aunt of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis - former society ladies - were living in a cat-infested, filthy, crumbling estate called Grey Gardens in East Hampton. The interview for the Rutgers newspaper was conducted shortly after the release of the film. Newkirk and Beale kept in touch for several years, by phone and by mail. After the estate was sold and her mother died, Beale moved to New York ( from 1980-1983) and the author escorted her to luncheons, parties and special events. She later moved to Florida, and died in January 2002. memoraBEALEia contains never-before-seen photographs of Edie Beale and Grey Gardens, the Rutgers Targum interview along with a few other obscure newspaper clippings, reproductions of letters written by Little Edie (along with cards she created), and art inspired by Grey Gardens.

Veckans Kino handlar om Tempo-aktuella The Act of Killing - en skrämmande dokumentär om ett folkmord. Regissören Joshua Oppenheimer berättar om hur han kom skrytsamma medlemmar från Indonesiska dödspatruller in på livet, och fick dem att iscensätta sina mord på film. Vi har träffat Olivier Assayas - bioaktuell med Efter revolutionen - som tycker att 70-talet är romantiserat och idealiseat. I hans film får man se sannningen! Gunnar Bolin rapporterar från den största och viktigaste afrikanska filmfestivalen - Fespaco i Ouagadougou i Burkina Faso. Och så har vi spårat upp en bifigur i den kultförklarade dokumentären Grey Gardens. Hur gick det egentligen sen för Jerry, tonårskillen som arbetade som alltiallo hos Big och Little Edie i den legendariska dokumentärfilmen. Programledare: Roger Wilson Producent: Thella Johnson I veckan drar dokumentärfestivalen Tempo igång i Stockholm, och en av festivalens bästa filmerär The Act of Killing, regisserad av Joshua Oppenheimer. Den absolut märkligaste och obehagligaste film vi på Kino sett på länge. The Act of Killing handlar om några av de män som var med i dödspatruller i Indonesien 1965, då man dödade totalt runt en miljon påstådda kommunister. Män som aldrig behövt konfronteras med det de gjort, utan tvärtom fortfarande hyllas som hjältar av dagens regim i Indonesien. som hjältar. Ett effektivt sätt att skrämma all opposition till tystnad - även idag. Men The Act of Killing har inte bara en angelägen historia. Formen den är berättad på liknar inget annat. I filmen får männen iscensätta det de varit med om. En del väljer att gestalta realistiska tortyr- och avrättningsscener. En annan bestämmer sig för att alla filmer behöver sång och dans, klär själv ut sig till en burlesk drag queen och är med i en dansuppvisning i djungeln. Den här processen hade ett syfte. Oppenheimer ville på något sätt konkretisera vad det är som gör folkmord möjligt. Och det genom att visa på den mänskliga sidan hos männen i dödspatrullerna. Kinos reporter Saman Bakhtiari har träffat regissören Joshua Oppenheimer. I förra veckan hade Efter Revolutionen av Olivier Assayas svensk biopremiär. Men regissören är inte helt nöjd med filmens svenska namn, eftersom han gör skillnad mellan revolt och revolution. Upproret i Paris 1968 var en revolt, åren efter det väntade alla på att revolutionen skulle komma. Den verkliga förändringen av samhället. Men inget hände. Efter revolutionen är Assayas sätt att rätta till den romantiska och förenklade bild av 70-talet som han tycker frodas idag. Lisa Bergström har träffat Assayas och pratat politik och konst och det missförstådda 70-talet. Just nu pågår Afrikas största och viktigaste filmfestival, Fespaco i Ouagadougou i Burkina Faso. Festivalen, som arrangeras vartannat år, är den stora mötesplatsen för den afrikanska filmindustrin. På plats är också Sveriges Radios kulturkorrespondent Gunnar Bolin som berättar om dagens filmupplevelser. Dokumentären Grey Gardens från 1975 nog en av de allra mest kultmärkta dokumentärer som någonsin gjorts. Och intresset verkar bara öka och öka. 2006 gjordes en musikalversion och 2009 spelade Jessica Lange och Drew Barrymore mor och dotter, big och little Edie i en spelfilm om Grey Gardens för kabelkanalen HBO. Det är något oemotståndligt med dokumentären från 1975, där man får följa Edie och Edie, excentriska överklasskvinnor som bori ett övervuxet kråkslott, bland kissande katter och högar av bråte. Och helt obekymrade av smutsen och förfallet håller de show framför kameran. Lite i bakgrunden finns också Jerry, en tonåring som rymt hemifrån och hittat en ny familj hos Edie och Edie. Nu, snart 40 år senare, är Jerry Torre själv ämnet för en nygjord dokumentär. Det upptäckte filmaren och journalisten Moa Geistrand när hon intervjuade den ena av Gray Gardens-regissörerna Albert Maysles på hans kontor i New York. Plötsligt fick hon - av en ren slump - träffa ett stycke levande filmhistoria som bonus. Och här är .
AFTERBUZZ TV – RuPaul’s Drag Race edition, is a weekly “after show” for fans of Logo’s RuPaul’s Drag Race. In this show, host Tony Moore breaks down the season 5 episode in which the queens compete in a TV game show. This week saw the return of the fan-favourite "Snatch Game" challenge, and on the runway, the queens wore their best 'fishy glamazon' looks. In the workroom, Jinkx's choice to do Little Edie is met with bewilderment from the other queens, whilst Ru is confused by Lineysha's initial choice to portray Michelle Obama. On the main stage, Jade, Coco and Alyssa were all declared safe, although Alyssa was warned that this was only because of her immunity as her Katy Perry impersonation was poor. Within the top three, Alaska was praised for being hilarious despite her voice not being Lady Bunny and Roxxxy was praised for both her impersonation and runway look. However, Jinkx's portrayal of Little Edie was deemed the best and she was declared the winner, although was warned that sh --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
