HBO's non-musical film version of Grey Gardens starring Jessica Lange and Drew Barrymore, will have its cable premiere on April 18. The film is directed by Michael Sucsy, who co-authored the teleplay with Patricia Rozema.

Based in part on the 1975 documentary by the Maysles brothers, the film traces the lives of Edith Beale (Lange) and her daughter Little Edie (Barrymore) from the 1930s through the 1970s, when the documentary was released.

The film also stars Malcolm Gets as George Gould Strong, Jeanne Tripplehorn as Jackie Kennedy Onassis, Daniel Baldwin as Julius Krug, Ken Howard as Phelan Beale, and Arye Gross and Justin Louis, as Albert and David Maysles.
