SAVAGE GRACE

Rodman on the set with Julianne Moore.

 "The early vote for best portrayal of social life in a 2008 film is Savage Grace," raves the April '08 issue of Vogue. "The story is deeply upsetting, like Death in Venice meets The Great Gatsby on the Psycho lot--hardly a date movie, unless you think he is a golddigger. But from its pacing to perfume, and thanks to costume designer Gabriela Salaverri and its haute couture wardrobe from Didier Ludot in Paris, Savage Grace, starring Julianne Moore and Eddie Redmayne, is amazing."

Opening this May, Savage Grace  directed by Tom Kalin and written by Rodman is based on Natalie Robins and Steven M.L. Aronson's heartbreaking 1985 nonfiction book about the jet-set rise and fall, spanning 1946 to 1972 in New York, Paris, Cadaques, Majorca, and London, of the reckless Barbara Baekeland and her delicate son, Tony, heir to the Bakelite plastics fortune.
