Majka i ćerka žive same već 24 godine u jednoj ogromnoj zapuštenoj kući sa 28 soba, na Long Islandu, država New York, baš na obali okeana, a društvo im pravi samo čopor mačaka i poneki rakun. Pošto je kuća bila prepuna đubreta, jer radi se o višedecenijskoj zapuštenosti, lokalne vlasti su im zapretile da srede kuću ili će ih izbaciti na ulicu. Rešile su da je ipak malo srede, i tu počinje priča ovog dokumentarca. Film je zanimljiv jer nema neku posebnu radnju, zapravo nema nikakvu radnju, već prati taj jedinstveni odnos majke koja ima skoro 80 godina i ćerke koja je u 50-im i nikad se nije udavala, nego je smorio život tako da se pre 24 godine vratila svojoj mami da navodno brine o njoj. Njihove prepirke, njihove priče, sećanja na davno prošla vremena i događaje, sve je to prajsles, i ja i pored preporuka nisam verovao da ovakvo nešto može da bude dobro/zanimljivo, dok se nisam i lično uverio.

Vaistinu mnogo jako, i dokumentarac, iako snimljen daleke '75, ne gubi nimalo na svojoj jačini, jer u toj kući, i u zarasloj bašti oko nje, ko da je vreme stalo, znači ne bi bilo razlike da je radnja smeštena i u neke ranije dekade, ili čak u današnje doba, jer evo sad gledam, one 70-ih sasvim opušteno nisu imale televizor, pa ni sat. Inače dokumentarac ima kultni status, i po njemu je prošle godine snimljen igrani film, Grey Gardens (2009) sa Drew Barrymore i Jessicom Lange. I videćete, na početku čak deluje ko da su obe malo skrenule, da su lude, posebno ćerka jer keva je i ovako senilna, ali nije tako, zapravo samo su blesave, i jako zabavne, ma bre slobodne žene, awesome, i sigurno ćete ih zavoleti, to provereno. I da, obavezno poslušajte telefonski razgovor na kraju, posle odjavne špice. VR'. (100 min)

"Seventy-nine year old Edith Bouvier Beale and her fifty-six year old daughter, Edith 'Little Edie' Bouvier Beale, are Jacqueline Kennedy's aunt and cousin. Living alone with several cats, fleas and raccoons (the latter, wild, which live in the attic but who Edie feeds), the Beale's are discovered living in filth and squalor in Grey Gardens, their 28-room family mansion located in East Hampton, Long Island, the mansion which doesn't even have running water. Edie moved home twenty-four years earlier to care for her ailing mother. In what Edie considers a "raid" on their privacy, the Suffolk County Board of Health orders the Beale's to clean up the house or be evicted. With few exceptions, the Beale's are suspicious of the outside world. The Beale's comply with the order and renovate the house with financial help from their more famous relative. Mother and daughter are outwardly combative with each other, but their constant bickering masks a protective attitude each has for the other. Both cling to their past lives, with each still believing that that life can exist, Edith as a singer, and Edie as a social débutante (Edie is always sporting a fashionable scarf around her head). Old habits die hard as even two years after renovations on the home have begun, Edith lives primarily in her bedroom in her twin bed which is covered with garbage and cats, who use the corner of the room as a bathroom. And Edie constantly dreams of a time when she can return to living in New York City as a débutante and dancer, although one realizes that she is only using her mother as an excuse for what she really considers her comfortable current living situation."
