AS SEEN ON TV: THE BEALES OF GREY GARDENS

HBO premiered a new version of 'Grey Gardens' this week, starring Jessica Lange as Edith Bouvier Beale and Drew Barrymore as her daughter, "Litlle Edie". The real-life story of these two women who were kin to Jackie Kennedy, and of the decaying old mansion in which they lived with nearly feral cats and even raccoons, was first chronicled in a documentary by the Maysles brothers. Much later, it became a Broadway musical with Christine Ebersole and Mary Louise Wilson.
