Savage Grace tells the inspired-by-a-true-story of the sad and disturbing relationship between Barbara Baekeland (who married into the Bakelite Plastics empire) and her son Tony.  Watch it for the lush scenes of New York, Paris and Spain set in the 1940's-1970's, and for the beautiful clothes - Chanel, Pucci and Yves St Laurent -  Barbara, played by Julianne Moore, wears throughout the film.  Watching an exorbitantly wealthy, jet-setting family fall apart at the seams is sad, but they definitely look great doing it.
