Make it a Mother’s Day afterparty with “Little Edie” Beale and her mom, “Big Edie.” In a crumbling mansion, these high-society dropouts/Jackie O.-relations/offbeat fashion icons live in a world of their own, bickering, philosophizing, and reminiscing about the past. Inspiring a musical, a feature film, and a Documentary Now! episode, this intimate doc is one of the medium’s most beloved works.
Enjoy a cocktail from The Grog Grill, included with your ticket!
