The film is adapted from the 1975 documentary "Grey Gardens".
"Grey Gardens" is easy to attract audiences. Edie's mother and daughter seemed to have been forgotten by society, living in a dilapidated old house, and raising a group of cats who chatted with comfort. Old Edie almost got out of bed, surrounded by piles of newspapers, clothes and dirty dishes. Little Edie likes to jump for joy and often dresses like a diver, barely seeing her hair. Despite being 58 years old, Little Edie is still beautiful and full of life. Old Edie once participated in movies and experienced the prosperity of Grey Gardens. But in order to take care of her mother, Edie had to give up her modeling career and her dream of achievement and fame. Her longing for love and family is terribly impossible to achieve in her entire life.
