Fug The Poster: Grey Gardens


I’m really not sure to whom this poster is supposed to appeal — for one thing, it makes Grey Gardens look like it’s a hybrid of The Mary Tyler Moore Show and Driving Miss Daisy:

And for another, despite the fact that we’ve all JUST read on every gossip site how much weight Drew Barrymore lost during shooting, her picture appears to imply there is a very uplifting story arc in which Little Edie gets her wisdom teeth out. This may have been how she dressed, true, but I don’t know that it makes for a very appealing advertisement unless you’re selling it to … very elderly yet plucky former dental hygienists? Glad we cleared that up, HBO.
