| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
SAVAGE GRACE, based on the award winning book, tells the incredible
true story of Barbara Daly, who married above her class to
Brooks Baekeland, the dashing heir to the Bakelite plastics
fortune. Beautiful, red-headed and charismatic, Barbara is
still no match for her well-bred husband. The birth of the
couple's only child, Tony, rocks the uneasy balance in this
marriage of extremes.
Tony is a failure in his father's eyes. As he matures and
becomes increasingly close to his lonely mother, the seeds
for a tragedy of spectacular decadence are sown. Spanning
1946 to 1972, the film unfolds in six acts. The Baekelands'
pursuit of social distinction and the glittering 'good life'
propels them across the globe. We follow their heady rise
and tragic fall against the backdrop of New York, Paris, Cadaques,
Mallorca and London.
