After watching the documentary of the original "Grey Garden" and then watching this remake, I feel that more than 30 years later, the film made is much smoother. Because this film can be fictionalized and filmed for forty years of history, it shows a broader perspective than a documentary, with polished dialogue and plot, and it can also show the director's thoughts more straightforwardly. The downside is that Hollywood seems to add a routine to many stories as usual, such as why little Edie will go home, such as the turn of fate at the end. In the documentary thirty years ago, the dispute, complaint, dependence, and self-restraint between little Edie and his mother were the most luminous humanity and truth in the documentary. The documentary did not try to express any tendency, but purely from the eyes of a bystander to see a pair of mother and daughter who seem to be bizarre and self-bound, but in fact they seem to be happy and content. As for this movie as a feature film, the plot seems to be more dominant, and it is necessary to add a reason and right or wrong to everything that happened. Perhaps some choices do not require reasons that the world understands. Maybe we choose a life just because I am me. People who complain about losing their freedom don't necessarily really want to be liberated. This feature film reduces the thought-provoking connotation of the documentary to an intellectual level. But you have to ask which film is better. Of course, this feature film should be better.
