Savage Grace

Criminal Adaptations

To outside observers, the Baekeland family seemed to have it all. Brooks and Barbara were an attractive, social, and incredibly wealthy couple who traveled the world with their intelligent son, Antony “Tony” Baekeland. After the couple separated in 1968, the relationship between Barbara and Tony grew volatile, dependent, and even incestuous…culminating in Tony committing matricide 1972. In 2007, Tom Kalin tapped Julianne Moore and up-and-coming Eddie Redmayne to portray the Baekeland’s in the indie film Savage Grace. Listen now to learn how accurately these two Academy Award winning actors portrayed the dysfunctional relationship that inspired the film.
