Wargo Michel Bouvier in the early 19th century was a cabinet maker from Provence. A.F. Wargo -Self Portrait In his early twenties Michel as a foot soldier fought with Napolean during the defeat at Waterloo. The Bourbons came back to the throne, and Michel was for- tunate to escape by ship to America. He landed in Philadelphia and opened a custom furniture shop and created some commissions for Joseph Bonaparte, the Emperor’s brother who had escaped France with a great fortune and built a palatial estate in Delaware. During the Presidency of John Quincy Adams, Michel built 24 chairs and a table for the White House. Over 100 years later his great great granddaughter and First Lady Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy would sit on these chairs and not know that Michel had made them. Michel became very successful and invested in real estate and built a palatial 20 room mansion with a chapel and stables. One of Michel’s sons, Captain John Vernou Bouvier, was severely wounded in the Civil War. One of his daughters married a son of the Drexels, one of our countries wealthiest banking families. He bought 2 sons seats on the New York Stock Exchange. Michel Bouvier, the founder of the family in the United States, died in 1834 and left an estate worth over $10,000,000. His son, Michel Charles Bouvier, called M.C. was able to profit many times from his estate share.

Living in squalor in a rundown Hamptons mansion, their indomitable spirit soon catapulted them to a cult icon status of a sort that was an ironic counterpoint to Mrs. Onassis’s own such status. Three decades later, the Beales received the ultimate homage: being portrayed on the Broadway stage. Combining a backstage look at the creative process behind the show, lavish clips from the original film, and insightful interviews with Albert Maysles, a host of Beale authorities, devotees and cultural commentators, and the Broadway show’s creators and cast, GREY GARDENS: From East Hampton To Broadway reminds of us of the power of the Beales’ story to arouse a multitude of emotions even decades later.

  • Together Forever: an Exploration of the Documentary Film Grey Gardens
    Together Forever: An Exploration of the Documentary Film Grey Gardens Stephanie Schwiederek 2019 The Beales were from a family of New York aristocrats and socialites, and Edith “Big Edie” Bouvier Beales’ husband, Phelan Beales, purchased the Hamptons estate, Grey Gardens, in the early 1920s. After a decade of living there together, their marriage fell apart. Phelan left Edith in 1931, with Edith retaining the estate. In 1946, Phelan moved to Mexico where he notified Edith of their divorce via telegram. Edith remained in the estate, relying on financial support from her family, the Bouviers, to raise her three children: her attempt at a singing career hadn’t been lucrative. Years later, “Big Edie” arrived at her son’s wedding dressed as an opera star, and her father, ‘Major’ Bouvier, tired from his daughter’s eccentric behavior, all but disinherited her from his will. After Major’s death in 1948, Edith’s health declined. Edith’s daughter Edie, by this time in her thirties and unsuccessful at pursuing an acting career in New York City, went to live with her mother in Grey Gardens.1 After being abandoned by Phelan, Edith and Edie were left to the not-so-tender mercies of Big Edie’s brother, ‘Black Jack’ Bouvier, a philandering Wall Street stockbroker. Edith’s brother was the father of Jacqueline Kennedy and Lee Radziwill, who, by Edie’s account, promptly appropriated their inheritance for his own daughters and left them to decay in an ever more dilapidating Grey Gardens. Edith and Edie came to the Maysles’ attention after a local news item in 1971 described “two cousins of Jacqueline Kennedy” living in “a garbage-infested, filthy, 28-room house with eight cats, fleas, cobwebs and no running water – conditions so unsanitary that the Suffolk County Health Department ordered them to clean up or face eviction”.

  • Grey Gardens Discussion Guide
    www.influencefilmforum.com Grey Gardens Discussion Guide Director: Albert and David Maysles Year: 1975 Time: 100 min You might know this director from: Gimme Shelter (1970) Salesman (1968) FILM SUMMARY A beloved cult classic and pop cultural touchstone, GREY GARDENS presents Mrs. Edith Bouvier Beale (“Big Edie”) and her daughter “Little Edie,” socialites living as hermits in a ramshackle 28-room mansion in East Hampton. The 82-year-old mother and 56-year-old daughter are aunt and first cousin to Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. They live together in squalor and disarray, in a dilapidated house that is also inhabited by cats and raccoons. For more than twenty years, the women have dwelled in their own world, in a place where the past and present bleed together. Their once magnificent mansion faces the sea, and its gothic decay is a haunting reminder of what once was and what could have been. But this isn’t simply a story about the upperclass fallen on hard times, or about life’s regrets and lost time. “Big Edie” is an American aristocrat and trained soprano singer. Her daughter, “Little Edie,” is a once aspiring actress who moved back home to take care of her mother. Together, they are an enchanting, eccentric duo whose wit and panache have inspired multiple interpretations of their story, including Broadway musicals and a feature film starring Drew Barrymore and Jessica Lange. GREY GARDENS has made its mark in the fashion, music, and television worlds as well. And in 2010, the Library of Congress deemed it as “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant” and selected the film for preservation in the United States National Film Registry.

You will find a bit of everything here: from the latest news to answers to some of the questions you have always wanted to ask. As you might imagine, I get a lot of emails regarding Grey Gardens. The obvious answer would be that the two Edies are characters that no novelist would ever dare to invent. It has a mythic quality that echoes Greek tragedy. An over-the-top Gothic narrative. A classic Tennessee Williams play set to music. A soap opera of the mind. For me, though, the story is Grey Gardens because the Edie Beales were the ultimate survivors. They continued to stay afloat no matter what life threw at them. They enjoyed life and they fought to live it even if, Grey Gardens times, their battle armor happened to be expressed in outlandish costumes! They refused Grey Gardens see themselves as objects of pity. These women were Grey Gardens individuals Grey Gardens repudiated nothing and refused to compromise anything. Their personal liberty was a continuum. If they could Grey Gardens extracted that dogged, authentic Beale essence and bottled it, they would have certainly been millionaires many times over.

  • Garden of Ambivalence the Topology of the Mother-Child Dyad in Grey Gardens
    Garden of Ambivalence The Topology of the Mother-child Dyad in Grey Gardens Defne Tüzün, Kadir Has University, [email protected] Volume 1.2 (2012) | ISSN 2158-8724 (online) | DOI 10.5195/cinej.2012.48 | http://cinej.pitt.edu Abstract The Maysles brothers’ 1975 documentary, Grey Gardens, portrays the lives of Edith Bouvier Beale and her daughter, Edith, known as Little Edie, the aunt and first cousin, respectively, of Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis. As their identical names imply, the Beales share a symbiotic relationship which is reflected in every aspect of their life. This article argues that Grey Gardens calls for Julia Kristeva’s insistence on abjection as a crucial struggle with “spatial ambivalence (inside/outside uncertainty)” and an attempt to mark out a space in the undifferentiated field of the mother-child symbiosis. In Powers of Horror, Kristeva (1982) states, “abjection preserves what existed in the archaism of pre-objectal relationship” (p. 10). Grey Gardens portrays the topology of the mother-child dyad, which pertains to a particular spatio-temporality: where this primordial relationship is concerned, object and subject crumble, and the distinction between past and present is irrelevant.

  • Edith Bouvier Beale of Grey Gardens, a Life in Pictures
    Recommended Reading 90th Birthday Celebrated with New Book Release: “Edith Bouvier Beale of Grey Gardens, A Life in Pictures” Edith Bouvier Beale (1917 - 2002) is best known for her appearance in the critically acclaimed 1976 docu- mentary Grey Gardens. The film, now available on DVD, inspired Grey Gardens The Musical, which opened on Broadway November 2, 2006.“ The show was nominated for 10 Tony Awards in 2007, and won 3 prizes including one for Best Actress Christine Ebersole in the role of Edith Bouvier Beale. Fashion designers Philip Lim and John Galliano recently paid tribute to Edith Bouvier Beale on the runways of Paris and the filming of the upcoming HBO movie starring Drew Barrymore and Jessica Lang began recently in Toronto. Edith Bouvier Beale of Grey Gardens, A Life in Pictures” is a tribute to Edith Bouvier Beale,’ said her nephew Bouvier Beale, Jr. Who is this woman who appeared in Grey Gardens aside from being the first cousin of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Lee Radzwill? Who was this woman of mystery at the center of attention when her east Hampton Estate was raided back in the early 70’s for insanity health conditions? “Edith Bouvier Beale (also known as ‘Little Edie”) was born on the day the Bolsheviks stormed the Winter Palace of the Tsar of Russia, which initiated the biggest and most far reaching revolution of the Twentieth Century. This seems an apt metaphor and an appropriate starting point for the life of this extraordinary American woman.” Bouvier Beale, Jr. In her journal of 1928, Eva Marie Beale creator of this project said Also coming soon is the company “Grey Gardens Collections” a com- that Edith Bouvier Beale wrote a title as follows “Edith Beale, the cel- pany created by Eva Marie Beale featuring goods inspired by Edith ebrated poet, author, and artist.” Now in the new book “Edith Bouvier Beale.
