Little Edie - These Days

[@connielamb8159]

I love her. What a wonderful, kind and insightful woman. Bless her misunderstood and underappreciated soul. I hope she's in a place of love now.

[@deslobo-ep6jn]

Much ❤️ love to you little Edie

[@robertafierro5592]

She was Beautiful..they remind me of my Dear friends Pat and Laura from 91st.. my friends long gone..they were there from the very beginning..my good friends. I'll NEVER forget them as long as I live.

[@patr70]

She was severly mentally ill. That's Obvious 😮

[@__seeker__]

She’s dead.

[@lauraann4014]

Amongst the deterioration of the house Edie always looked glamorous, love her ❤

[@Danuta628]

During these years it was like she was just waiting for her freedom- to be free from a very controlling mother . Thank god little Edie lived long enough to have that freedom towards the end of her life in Florida ❤❤❤

[@StephanieD-ug9ob]

I always identified with her. I love my mother but for much of my life we were enmeshed. I turned 50 and met my husband, moved across country and I'm happy with my life now. I'm glad LE had some years of happiness once her mother passed.

[@pamela6507]

She had such a beautiful heart and soul she really did she literally gave her life up to stay at grey gardens with her mom atleast she did they out of grey gardens

[@pinkdolly]

And she was rewarded with true fame! I think it’s so cool that she got to meet Andy Warhol

[@heather9329]

She was a beautiful empath God bless little Edie ♥️

@@pamela6507 They were both two legends. They were trapped together, it was like a pressure cooker in there. Imagine how hard it was for them before the house was done up a little. The mother did love little Edie, they were both eccentric. I think Edie gravitated back to the house herself.

[@noellehanrahan9035]

Absolutely a legend. I'd give anything just to chat with her. Amazing 👏

[@connielamb8159]

Me too!

[@tula1433]

They need a monument in East Hampton for how cruel the town was to them!

[@shanebruce3997]

Agreed!!! "F**K East Hampton, then and now!!!

[@SRPA476]

The people on here saying they'd have befriended her or loved to have know her make laugh. Chances are, you'd have treated her like just like her contemporaries did. You'd have kept your distance and gossiped about her. There are people like Edie all around you and you don't notice. It's because she's famous that it's given her an inverted, posthumous status she never had in life. In real life, people keep the damaged and eccentric at arm's length. Especially as they age.

There is such a depth of sadness that reflects the human condition in this. The feel of the song so perfectly fits the passages that Little Edie states, beginning with, "Pride!"

[@backtomonobacktomono3490]

Edie Beale was a beautiful soul. I wish her peace.

[@padraiggillon]

Thank you, Maysles brothers. The world needed to meet this woman.

[@davidanthonystone5165]

I met Little Edie at Reno Sweeney’s cabaret in 1977 Oh boy.

[@sugarplum5150]

Tell us more!

[@plantagenet6452]

Lucky!

[@mc5967]

Please tell more

[@memelc5655]

They were trapped in time. Missed 25 years of 50’s and 60’s no electricity no food no water??? Seriously how did they survive

[@Soooooooooooonicable]

I love her way of speaking so much. The accent, the gentleness, the flourishes. When she said something, she meant it.

[@kristiestevens6809]

She was very sweet and kind.

[@terryannmaes5538]

She's just so dear. I love her

[@Toots22]

she was truly an aristocrat in the higher sense of the word, every bit as much as her cousin, if not more

[@OhBudel1965]

I've seen Grey Gardens more times than any other movie. I adore both Edie's. These Days and Nico's vocals fit so beautifully with these film clips.

[@hhhhhhhhhh158]

Little Edie is so beautiful.

[@fullyasleep8209]

She must of touched everyone’s heart who watched grey gardens ..beautiful soul 🙏

[@cheryllittle4257]

You kept a good soul through out your life. With no one coming to your aid when you and your mother needed help the most. My heart goes out to you and your mother. You sweet sweet Lady....

[@tula1433]

2:57 has anyone ever heard anything from the teen boy on the bed? He was Edie’s little friend who she would talk to. I think their relationship was so pure and adorable and what a sweet young man to check in on her when he could of been out with friends! Where is he now!?

[@connielamb8159]

His name is Jerry Torre. When little Edie first laid eyes on him when he came to their door she called him the Marble Faun. He looked exactly like an illustration from the Nathaniel Hawthorne novel. He went on to become a famous sculptor in -get this- marble! She was so astute..as was Big Edie, they both adored Jerry. He is living with his male partner, yes he's gay.

[@tula1433]

This beautiful song is perfect for little Edie ♥️

[@lovevluv]

Thank you so much for this. I love Edie. She makes me love myself.

[@leej-wp9ft]

What an amazing lady. You can see when she was having a mania episode her whole face changes and she can't stop moving. I imagine she would get sad in the winters. Glad she broke free in the end.

[@SerenaWilliams-g1c]

Two of my favorite things. Little Edie and Nico’s music. Beautiful compilation. Thank you. 👌

[@ElizabethT45]

Little Edie passed away in 2002 and the movie Grey Gardens came out in 2009. I think she would have liked how Drew Barrymore portrayed her.

[@erichkaiser4317]

The original documentary came out in 1975 while both Big and Little Edie were alive.

[@lisas2538]

I like her so much. She was a lovely sweet person.

[@teijaflink2226]

Such stylish, beautiful, unique lady.

[@sheilawilson7616]

They never harmed anyone. They just wanted to stay in their home and live their lives in the past together. God Bless Their Sweet Souls.❤️❤️

[@brianw4brian]

LOL. the fuck you say never harmed anyone. How well do you know that family? really how well do you know?

[@kaylag3099]

Seems like you know something the original commenter doesn't. Who did they harm? I'm genuinely curious... ​@@brianw4brian

In honorance of Edie Beale. Her taste in fashion is very reinventable. Very inspiring.

[@ElizabethT45]

She wore scarves and brooches as headwear in such an interesting way.

[@cathypeterson2420]

Thus voice touches the rhythm of her .and her smile does transform past her dismal -at times existence .her true nature is strong vibrant .full of emotions pent up alot bless her .she most likely waltzed in above

Great match up with Edie and Nico. I wonder if they ever met! I do believe they were in some of the same circles Little Edie was a Warhol muse.

[@muszak1]

Lil Edie had beautiful soul ❤ Her mother controlled her love for her. Big Edie was not nice to her daughter.

[@thetruthwillsetyoufree9911]

Everything I have read, and its extensive, about Little Edie... Points to Her mother as a trap.. who crushed her spirit... to the point that she could often be mean.. In the summer of 1950 Jackie and Black Jack visited the pair, Doris Francisco observed Little Edie attack a 21 year old Jackie over her father. Shocked Doris apologised for Edie.. "Oh Doris" exclaimed Jackie, "It's so much more complicated than you realize. Forgive Edie, she has good reason to be mad at Daddy".. Whether about his abuse of Big Edie's trust fund, Her entrapment by Big Edie, or something of a more intimate nature Doris didn't know.. But it says a lot about Little Edie, and Jackie's understanding of the situation Little Edie found heself in...

[@williamburke7383]

❤ I love Little Edie so much! I even named my new car after her!

[@ransomcoates546]

[@suzannpomeroy6226]

She loved life

[@cathypeterson2420]

Her mother held her back for just her wierd family responsibilities as she was a female and the father was weirdly dismissive and strict by over stepping his rules-her c shoes which she didn't need special shoes was just wierd .Eddie Still became unique and fought back.

[@janiceavila7119]

From the first time, I saw Gray Manor, I fell in love with Edie, not so much the mother. Did Edie ever get help for her mental illness and when does she pass away?

[@joan-lisa-smith]

After her mother passed away she left the house as the gay community made her into a bit of an icon. They invited her to perform regularly at clubs in Greenwich Village, she told reporters at the time that she felt free and was enjoying her life immensely. I'm not sure what else went on except that she also sold the house. She died in 2002 at 84 years of age.

[@memelc5655]

Who gave the mother a notebook and recipe box for her birthday? I couldn’t understand that

[@PepperPotPavilion]

[@silviaconrad8401]
