Plot – Spoilers:
Savage Grace is based on the life of Barbara Baekeland, in particular her relationship with son, Antony.
Barbara was an almost-actress and famous socialite in the ’40s-60s who married into money – husband, Brooks Baekeland was the grandson of the inventor of Bakelite plastic. Brooks was the quintessential wealthy adventure-seeker and Barbara famous for her beauty and presence in elite social circles. Their marriage though was a sham publicly and Barbara focused her energies on son Antony who appeared to wilt under the pressure of adding rungs to the social ladder the upwardly mobile Barbara was so desperate to climb.
Eventually, the strains of their heavy dependence on each other climaxes in a miserable ending.
Massive Spoilers:
Barbara believed Antony’s interest in men was a passing thing and something that could be cured. The real-life Barbara used to hook him up with prostitutes to rid him of his gay-flu and eventually fucked him, from all accounts not from an incestuous interest, but more in the hope that her feminine powers would straighten him out.
please post movmre movies i love this site…. i am from Pakistan
It’s such a relief when he finally kills her. Too bad she didn’t die sooner before he was irreparably damaged by her. Why kind of perverted POS does one have to be to think mother-son sexual abuse is healthier than being gay?
Six of one… half dozen of the other… neither is what one might consider “normal”.
Ah, yes, a mother raping her son is synonymous with a man having a consensual relationship with a man. You are indeed the Speaker of Truth. By the way, will insurance cover getting your head surgically removed from your ass?
Says the dick-smoker who was rapped my Daddy…. You most definitely protest too much.
what a crazy story! this film was really good:)
Another classic EUM!
