Ghosts of Grey Gardens

About this title

In 2001, the then-19 year old director, Greenfield-Sanders, saw Grey Gardens and began this project, both a documentary on a documentary and one fan's three-year quest to glean additional information about the Maysles' subjects and capture the reason for their enormous impact on so many creative people. Mixing her own footage with Grey Gardens footage, performance art with interviews, and monologue with dialogue, the filmmaker tells the story of the past and present of Grey Gardens.
