Grey Gardens Page #3

But we didn't recognize it It wasn't

recognized by the Catholic Church

They don't recognize it, you know

Say, are you bossing me around, Edie?

All afternoon?

- [Edie] I think that's terrific

- Oh, Edie, it's not the best one

This is the worst one

of my wedding pictures

The others look worse

I was gonna be a singer, you know

A professional singer

When I met Mr. Beale,

the jig was up

Do you remember this?

- May I see that, please?

- The villain of the piece

"To my best friend and

most delightful comrade

"to my only sweetheart

and wonderful wife

"I tender this likeness

of her husband

Phelan Beale, 1929"

- So we did love each other

- Did I laugh when I read that

Aren't kids terrible?

I just roared

When the people don't speak,

they never get divorced

- You just can't tell

- I've been a very happy woman all my life

Shall I tell them about Gould?

Gould was Mother's accompanist

He was a boogie-woogie composer

who had the most terrific style

He was the most brilliant man

I've ever met

That's including Mr. Beale

and Mr. Bouvier

Completely brilliant

This is cute, Mother

I like that very much

Don't you, David?

You said Michelle Beale

stole this, didn't you, Edie?

I never did

She'd never do that

See how fat I was, Edie?

Did I look like a good mother?

Was I a good mother?

- [David] It looks like it

- What? Looks like it

I didn't starve my children,

did I? What?

Fed 'em Fed 'em well

[Mrs. Beale] They were very nice children

I enjoyed them tremendously

I'm crazy about my two sons,

absolutely mad about them

- [David] Who's the little girl?

- [Edie] That's me

[Mrs. Beale] Well, the boys were,

were not hard to handle at all

- They were very easy to handle

- Oh, my mother never saw my brothers

I saw them every minute,

every single minute

- Oh, they never got any discipline, my brothers

- They didn't need it

- They were absolutely perfect

- They never got any discipline

This was taken with a tiny

little Kodak Number Two

That was Kodak Number Two

Cost two dollars, that camera

- Mother, I'm mad about these pictures of you

- Oh, no, don't take those

- We'll just put them right over here

- Oh, no, I want those out

- Will you give me those, please?

- No, you can't have them

I want them, Edie I will never see them again

Now, I want those pictures

- I want those pictures, Edie

- You can't expose them to the light in here

No, give me those pictures

I don't want to ask 67 times

- Come on

- I want to show that to Al

- No, I want...

- I wanna show it to Al!

- It's my picture

- Look what you made me do

Well, you did it

Look what she did

- Mrs. Beale had a classical face I want you to see this
