'The Price Of Desire': Film Review – Mary McGuckian's low-budget biopic does a tedious job of salvaging modernist designer Eileen Gray's reputation from credit hog Le Corbusier.

Gray’s remarkable life, talent and legacy receives more inspiring treatment in “Gray Matters,” a companion documentary helmed at the same time by Marco Antonio Orsini, available on iTunes.

When Gray meets Badovici , in the 1920s, she is a highly successful furniture designer with her own Parisian gallery and several female lovers, including Marise Damia , seen performing an excruciating version of “La Marseillaise.” Badovici writes about Gray for various architectural journals and teaches her some basics of the trade.

And so it goes. Gray pays the price for her foolish love, continually humiliated by the male worshipers of Le Corbusier. Corbu doesn’t bother to invite Gray to an assembly of modernist architects that he organizes, he doesn’t correct people who confuse his murals with some other sort of creative authorship of the villa. Indeed, he’s so obsessed with E-1027 that he buys several plots of land nearby.

Although Gray maintains that she is happier to create things than possess them, she is unable to have E-1027 restored to her vision. Happily, however, she lives to see her sole creation of the villa recognized and her artistic legacy once again acclaimed.
