As a Maysles brothers fan, it was inevitable that I view Grey Gardens. It is just as bizarre and unique as everyone says it is. I feel unable to give the film five stars because honestly, several scenes were grating. It's hard to imagine filming for weeks in such a dilapidated residence. Credit the Maysles bros for their diligence. Grey Gardens is the documentary result of their toils. Love it or loathe it, everyone will agree that this is a singular film.
