Philadelphia family though she was a shy

don't have to be here enough for me I'm

00:00:23,830 --> 00:00:30,480
not trying to be by the age of 23 her
8
00:00:26,289 --> 00:00:30,480
beauty and talent took her to Hollywood

00:00:32,160 --> 00:00:37,480
he made 11 films in three and a half
10
00:00:35,110 --> 00:00:41,399
years and became one of the most

00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:41,399
sought-after stars of her time
12
00:00:41,890 --> 00:00:47,860
she worked with Hollywood's most

00:00:43,450 --> 00:00:50,940
important directors main opposite its

top leading man
15
00:00:55,970 --> 00:01:02,340
there's nothing quite so mysterious and
16
00:00:58,890 --> 00:01:06,770
silent as a dark laser then at 26 she
17
00:01:02,340 --> 00:01:06,770
turned her back on make believes
18
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:13,299
but make-believe came true a fairytale
19
00:01:10,700 --> 00:01:18,020
shared by the entire world
20
00:01:13,299 --> 00:01:22,750
her name was Grace Kelly it became her
21
00:01:18,020 --> 00:01:22,750
serene Highness Princess Grace of Monaco
22
00:01:31,630 --> 00:01:37,479
I don't think grace really believed that
23
00:01:35,799 --> 00:01:40,780
she was going to give up acting when she
24
00:01:37,479 --> 00:01:44,680
became Princess Grace of Monaco I think
25
00:01:40,780 --> 00:01:46,149
that the reality of that probably struck
26
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:48,210
her someplace in the middle of the
27
00:01:46,149 --> 00:01:52,180
Mediterranean after the honeymoon began
28
00:01:48,210 --> 00:01:53,080
she took everything so much in her

00:01:52,180 --> 00:01:57,430
stride
30
00:01:53,080 --> 00:02:00,940
nothing nothing seems to to be too much
31
00:01:57,430 --> 00:02:05,550
for a very named grace could not have
32
00:02:00,940 --> 00:02:11,860
been more fitting and even a death
33
00:02:05,550 --> 00:02:21,130
tragic early death Mayda enter even more

she was the baby for three and a half
81

years and loved every minute of it grace
82
00:04:46,280 --> 00:04:51,770
when she was young was very shy and a
83
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:54,170
momma's baby there are many times that
84
00:04:51,770 --> 00:04:56,450
we have pictures taken that mother had
85
00:04:54,170 --> 00:04:58,700
to lean back away from the camera so
86
00:04:56,450 --> 00:05:02,000
grace would not cry to be taken away
87
00:04:58,700 --> 00:05:04,130
from her mother she was very sweet and

cuddled and kissed and loved I on the

older sister were more don't let you

want to do our own thing we always had a
94
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:22,340
place at the shore and when we were
95
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:24,740
young and at that time I think we had
96
00:05:22,340 --> 00:05:27,170
our best times together we just had a
97
00:05:24,740 --> 00:05:31,900
marvelous time and grace all her life
98
00:05:27,170 --> 00:05:35,060
loved to be by the ocean and the sea

Grace and all the family were a
100
00:05:35,060 --> 00:05:40,100
competitive family I think we got that I
101
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:43,610
know we got that from our mother and my
102
00:05:40,100 --> 00:05:49,420
father they instilled into a deep sense
103
00:05:43,610 --> 00:05:54,650
of competition and the love of sports
104
00:05:49,420 --> 00:05:58,220
the thrill of winning that also taught
105
00:05:54,650 --> 00:06:00,980
us how to lose gracefully but the
106
00:05:58,220 --> 00:06:02,960
Kelly's didn't intend to lose and there
107
00:06:00,980 --> 00:06:08,390
never was a better drill master than
108
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:10,490
Jack Kelly it was fun family fun and it
109
00:06:08,390 --> 00:06:13,000
left a special kind of determination

[Music]
111
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:19,069
the distr mination didn't manifest
112
00:06:15,919 --> 00:06:22,069
itself in grace as much in the sporting
113
00:06:19,069 --> 00:06:25,400
field a her determination so that took
114
00:06:22,069 --> 00:06:30,889
another turn she loved to sit by the
115
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:33,259
hours and pretend and create situations
116
00:06:30,889 --> 00:06:35,449
and say busy you do this and I'll be
117
00:06:33,259 --> 00:06:37,759
this and I'll be the mother and you be
118
00:06:35,449 --> 00:06:39,289
the baby and of course I gave her a hard
119
00:06:37,759 --> 00:06:43,160
time a lot of times because I did not
120
00:06:39,289 --> 00:06:45,229
want to play her game for grace growing

[Music]
127
00:07:03,479 --> 00:07:10,710
but for grace these shows meant more
128
00:07:05,789 --> 00:07:13,229
than fundraising they were theater she
129
00:07:10,710 --> 00:07:16,379
got most of her love from the theater
130
00:07:13,229 --> 00:07:19,139
for my uncle George he was a playwright
131
00:07:16,379 --> 00:07:22,199
and he directed plays very gracious
132
00:07:19,139 --> 00:07:25,680
highly educated person well-read and
133
00:07:22,199 --> 00:07:29,039
very witty and she just was fascinated
134
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:32,520
with all the tales of the stage and the
135
00:07:29,039 --> 00:07:36,120
theater her uncle George Kelly was was a
136
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:40,469
great example to her he he was sensitive
137
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:42,210
and kind and talented and I think of all
138
00:07:40,469 --> 00:07:44,939
the men she ever knew rather than going
139
00:07:42,210 --> 00:07:48,110
for the athletic macho type I think her
140
00:07:44,939 --> 00:07:51,770
her ideal man was was her uncle George
141
00:07:48,110 --> 00:07:55,879
my recollections is her father John B
142
00:07:51,770 --> 00:07:58,919
Jack Kelly were of an enormous man with
143
00:07:55,879 --> 00:08:01,159
tremendous amount of gusto everything up
144
00:07:58,919 --> 00:08:04,789
front everything in the open move ahead
145
00:08:01,159 --> 00:08:09,930
nice man but not a tremendous amount of
146
00:08:04,789 --> 00:08:12,060
internal sensitivity the father believed
147
00:08:09,930 --> 00:08:14,099
absolutely the Peggy the older sister
148
00:08:12,060 --> 00:08:18,449
was going to be make the big star of the
149
00:08:14,099 --> 00:08:20,459
family and succeed and you never paid
150
00:08:18,449 --> 00:08:23,849
any attention to grace it was the middle
151
00:08:20,459 --> 00:08:27,389
of the families for children and she was
152
00:08:23,849 --> 00:08:30,449
quiet observer to the others and adored
153
00:08:27,389 --> 00:08:34,800
her older brother to also GL zombie
154
00:08:30,449 --> 00:08:37,159
Kelly jr. and also analytic star great
155
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:40,589
racers the father thought he's great but
156
00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:43,620
Gracie just accepted and I don't think
157
00:08:40,589 --> 00:08:46,620
he understood her at all but she adored
158
00:08:43,620 --> 00:08:50,010
him and yet one wonders when you don't
159
00:08:46,620 --> 00:08:52,260
get from a parent of what it is perhaps
160
00:08:50,010 --> 00:08:55,680
you need if that isn't what creates a
161
00:08:52,260 --> 00:08:57,690
great deal of the drive in you to go out
162
00:08:55,680 --> 00:09:02,279
and become the fullest part of yourself
163
00:08:57,690 --> 00:09:06,230
she decided to go to New York and my
164
00:09:02,279 --> 00:09:11,000
mother and father especially surprised
165
00:09:06,230 --> 00:09:14,100
because she was a shy and retiring girl
166
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:16,230
my mother and father were a little leery
167
00:09:14,100 --> 00:09:19,140
out of New York and on her own
168
00:09:16,230 --> 00:09:22,440
but mother said if Jack it's not as if
169
00:09:19,140 --> 00:09:26,310
she's going to Hollywood or the
170
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:28,140
California race knew that her father
171
00:09:26,310 --> 00:09:28,710
didn't think very much of an acting
172
00:09:28,140 --> 00:09:30,510
career
173
00:09:28,710 --> 00:09:31,770

00:09:30,510 --> 00:09:34,500
her system let her go

little by little she started getting job
182
00:09:59,930 --> 00:10:04,680
so that she didn't have to act for the
183
00:10:02,430 --> 00:10:06,950
favor of being supported in her efforts
184
00:10:04,680 --> 00:10:12,390

187
00:10:15,310 --> 00:10:25,120
she was the girl next door the girl men
188
00:10:18,519 --> 00:10:27,069
hoped they could marry after graduating
189
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:29,709
from the American Academy grace found
190
00:10:27,069 --> 00:10:32,350
parts in stock companies and her first
191
00:10:29,709 --> 00:10:36,970
professional role in her uncle George
192
00:10:32,350 --> 00:10:39,639
Kelly's play the torchbearers then came
193
00:10:36,970 --> 00:10:42,240
her first Broadway role in a string
194
00:10:39,639 --> 00:10:42,240
Burak play
195
00:10:42,990 --> 00:10:46,710
and we all went up and Philadelphia to
196
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,390
see the opening night and dad did not
197
00:10:46,710 --> 00:10:49,040
know that rain and Massie was in the
198
00:10:48,390 --> 00:10:51,779
play
199
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:53,880
grace introduced her father to Raymond
200
00:10:51,779 --> 00:10:55,440
and he said Oh Jack how are you and he
201
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:59,310
said is this your daughter I did not
202
00:10:55,440 --> 00:11:02,880
know that so she did everything on her
203
00:10:59,310 --> 00:11:04,770
own and did not want any help from any
204
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:08,940
of the family because she said if I
205
00:11:04,770 --> 00:11:11,490
don't do it myself I don't want to do it
206
00:11:08,940 --> 00:11:13,370
at all I was very taken with the way she
207
00:11:11,490 --> 00:11:16,740
looked and the way she walked and
208
00:11:13,370 --> 00:11:19,290
especially her lovely voice she had a
209
00:11:16,740 --> 00:11:24,149
beautiful voice except where the speech
210
00:11:19,290 --> 00:11:26,580
was not yet as an actress blended with
211
00:11:24,149 --> 00:11:30,529
her posture with that stately figure
212
00:11:26,580 --> 00:11:33,209
that she projected she studied she
213
00:11:30,529 --> 00:11:35,850
really applied herself to the characters
214
00:11:33,209 --> 00:11:38,370
that that she was working on
215
00:11:35,850 --> 00:11:41,640
I met Grace Kelly early in the career
216
00:11:38,370 --> 00:11:44,399
back in 1950 when I was directing danger
217
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:46,860
for CBS television her mother came up
218
00:11:44,399 --> 00:11:50,130
and I think her brother came up to watch
219
00:11:46,860 --> 00:11:52,950
a rehearsal and when the rehearsal was
220
00:11:50,130 --> 00:11:54,660
over I heard a mother say darling your
221
00:11:52,950 --> 00:11:57,480
speech is affected a little bit can you
222
00:11:54,660 --> 00:12:00,089
uh can you kind of make it more natural
223
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:02,279
and she said mother I'm working on it
224
00:12:00,089 --> 00:12:04,050
your city is full of sound listen I
225
00:12:02,279 --> 00:12:06,120
don't hear a thing
226
00:12:04,050 --> 00:12:09,240
so there's no to 'mobile going past and
227
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:11,940
a horse and a boat in the harbor she
228
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:14,430
played the lead in the rich boy for me
229
00:12:11,940 --> 00:12:17,910
Leviathan I'll take him
230
00:12:14,430 --> 00:12:20,490
under the pressures of live television
231
00:12:17,910 --> 00:12:22,920
no retakes no ability to go back and
232
00:12:20,490 --> 00:12:25,560
change television when they had flat
233
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:28,950
fall down on on tea tables and everybody
234
00:12:25,560 --> 00:12:31,529
was out there improvising she performed
235
00:12:28,950 --> 00:12:34,560
absolutely brilliantly and very quickly
236
00:12:31,529 --> 00:12:38,220
became one of the leading members of the
237
00:12:34,560 --> 00:12:41,850
so-called stock company those actors
238
00:12:38,220 --> 00:12:47,880
that we would tend to cast over and over
239
00:12:41,850 --> 00:12:49,709
again my vase now that should that's the
240
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,390
way oh no III I'm interested I just
241
00:12:49,709 --> 00:12:55,500
never thought about it that way
242
00:12:51,390 --> 00:12:57,149
well people in the West immoral I'm open
243
00:12:55,500 --> 00:12:59,339
that's because you've had a lot to drink
244
00:12:57,149 --> 00:13:01,080
you drink a lot don't you
245
00:12:59,339 --> 00:13:02,430
know what I was watching you from across
246
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:05,790
the room you kept filling your glass
247
00:13:02,430 --> 00:13:08,399
every few maybe you were watching me so
248
00:13:05,790 --> 00:13:11,220
it was the other girl some in I like
249
00:13:08,399 --> 00:13:13,950
that they compel attention I didn't even
250
00:13:11,220 --> 00:13:16,320
see you until just a few minutes ago and
251
00:13:13,950 --> 00:13:19,740
I couldn't wait to be introduced come on
252
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:22,709
I like that the first time I saw grace I
253
00:13:19,740 --> 00:13:25,020
would be hard-pressed to describe her as
254
00:13:22,709 --> 00:13:27,750
glamour queen of the world during the
255
00:13:25,020 --> 00:13:31,350
rehearsal she had a pair of glasses on
256
00:13:27,750 --> 00:13:37,080
and they were just a little bit down her
257
00:13:31,350 --> 00:13:40,020
nose and she had a terrible cold and she
258
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:42,510
was quite quite withdrawn
259
00:13:40,020 --> 00:13:44,880
I remember we shook hands but it wasn't
260
00:13:42,510 --> 00:13:47,100
a very hearty handshake it was it was
261
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:49,529
the handshake of a little girl and I
262
00:13:47,100 --> 00:13:52,230
thought oh what a nice schoolteacher
263
00:13:49,529 --> 00:13:55,050
she's from Philadelphia and that was my
264
00:13:52,230 --> 00:13:57,930
first impression of grace grace was
265
00:13:55,050 --> 00:14:01,500
given a small part in the movie 14 hours
266
00:13:57,930 --> 00:14:03,270
in which she was hardly noticed she
267
00:14:01,500 --> 00:14:05,290
returned to television and to stock
268
00:14:03,270 --> 00:14:09,370
theater
269
00:14:05,290 --> 00:14:11,100
her big break came almost by chance I
270
00:14:09,370 --> 00:14:15,670
met grace
271
00:14:11,100 --> 00:14:19,170
in 1953 actually going through the
272
00:14:15,670 --> 00:14:22,090
receiving line of my wedding to my
273
00:14:19,170 --> 00:14:24,700
then-husband jkhanner who was her agent
274
00:14:22,090 --> 00:14:26,950
I was intrigued by her looks in the
275
00:14:24,700 --> 00:14:30,640
photographs that Edie sent me by her
276
00:14:26,950 --> 00:14:33,190
background and probably more by the fact
277
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:35,920
that she absolutely would not accept the
278
00:14:33,190 --> 00:14:40,000
long term studio contract it was a young
279
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:43,360
agent I was a young producer and he had
280
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:45,070
brought to me Marlon Brando then he sent
281
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:47,560
me a photograph of Grace Kelly at the
282
00:14:45,070 --> 00:14:51,190
time we were casting high noon now I
283
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:53,560
wanted an unknown girl I asked to see
284
00:14:51,190 --> 00:14:56,980
her she came in from Denver for an
285
00:14:53,560 --> 00:15:00,160
interview for an interview for a part in
286
00:14:56,980 --> 00:15:02,260
a Western with white gloves no less that
287
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:04,900
goes way back when we were children my
288
00:15:02,260 --> 00:15:08,620
mother insisted every time we went into
289
00:15:04,900 --> 00:15:10,840
town you wore hat and gloves that not
290
00:15:08,620 --> 00:15:13,600
only my mother we were brought up as in
291
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:16,420
a convent and the nuns insisted that you
292
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:19,360
wore white gloves on special occasions I
293
00:15:16,420 --> 00:15:22,930
went overboard because she had that
294
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:25,120
lading like quality that kind of dignity
295
00:15:22,930 --> 00:15:27,970
which was in contrast to the Western
296
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:30,070
scene which worked so well these are the
297
00:15:27,970 --> 00:15:31,930
Cooper's your lawful wedded husband to
298
00:15:30,070 --> 00:15:34,000
have and to hold from this day forward
299
00:15:31,930 --> 00:15:36,250
the reason I think she was miscast is
300
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:38,290
that Cooper was much older than Grace
301
00:15:36,250 --> 00:15:41,890
Kelly he was too old for Kelly actually
302
00:15:38,290 --> 00:15:44,620
in the role she didn't believe that she
303
00:15:41,890 --> 00:15:46,840
did well in the film I didn't think so
304
00:15:44,620 --> 00:15:49,120
either there was a girl in the film
305
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:51,310
named Katey hirato who played a Mexican
306
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:55,000
gal in the town Carrie Hirata was
307
00:15:51,310 --> 00:15:57,330
dynamic and overpowering and yet Kelly
308
00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:01,980
wasn't swallowed even in her miscast
309
00:15:57,330 --> 00:16:04,120
because this ladylike thing came through
310
00:16:01,980 --> 00:16:05,590
they were on the right side but that
311
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,399
didn't help the many when the shooting
312
00:16:05,590 --> 00:16:11,379
started
313
00:16:06,399 --> 00:16:15,129
my brother was 19 I watched him for
314
00:16:11,379 --> 00:16:17,620
Grace Kelly was her first big break and
315
00:16:15,129 --> 00:16:21,220
for me was my first American picture
316
00:16:17,620 --> 00:16:24,759
making here in Hollywood I am was two
317
00:16:21,220 --> 00:16:27,910
years old she was I have seven years
318
00:16:24,759 --> 00:16:32,980
making pictures in Mexico and there was
319
00:16:27,910 --> 00:16:35,589
something so different between Grace and
320
00:16:32,980 --> 00:16:38,949
I we cannot really explain that we could
321
00:16:35,589 --> 00:16:42,069
not be very close but I could see a girl
322
00:16:38,949 --> 00:16:43,649
with a lot of dignity and a lot of
323
00:16:42,069 --> 00:16:48,129
character because she wants to be
324
00:16:43,649 --> 00:16:49,329
somebody in movies and she were very
325
00:16:48,129 --> 00:16:53,680
hard in that picture
326
00:16:49,329 --> 00:16:56,079
she looked weak between very tiny but
327
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:58,629
she was very strong person I believe
328
00:16:56,079 --> 00:17:02,110
they she was one of the strongest movie
329
00:16:58,629 --> 00:17:06,659
star I work with she knew what what you
330
00:17:02,110 --> 00:17:06,659
want and she did it
331
00:17:09,180 --> 00:17:15,480
Gary Cooper went on to win an Academy
332
00:17:11,490 --> 00:17:17,940
Award for best actor of 1952 but there
333
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:19,740
were no laurels for grace and she
334
00:17:17,940 --> 00:17:23,550
promptly headed back to New York for
335
00:17:19,740 --> 00:17:26,340
more study she was a Kelly and she had
336
00:17:23,550 --> 00:17:28,470
to do better we've all probably read
337
00:17:26,340 --> 00:17:30,570
that thing where she says that you can
338
00:17:28,470 --> 00:17:33,000
see everything and in Gary Cooper's eyes
339
00:17:30,570 --> 00:17:34,710
but that her eyes were flat and dull and
340
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,360
dead and that she didn't like them she
341
00:17:34,710 --> 00:17:38,430
couldn't tell what the character was
342
00:17:36,360 --> 00:17:40,680
feeling she began to work harder on
343
00:17:38,430 --> 00:17:42,890
concentrating on her objective in other
344
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:46,500
words that would have that would
345
00:17:42,890 --> 00:17:48,960
eventually be the cure for the way she
346
00:17:46,500 --> 00:17:51,480
attacked her characters to make them
347
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:53,940
come alive to make her eyeballs shine
348
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:58,680
with meaning she always had this image
349
00:17:53,940 --> 00:18:00,690
in her image of being oh no fashioned
350
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:03,540
actress actress with the kind of glamour
351
00:18:00,690 --> 00:18:05,580
that you have on Broadway grace was
352
00:18:03,540 --> 00:18:08,420
eager for a lead role in a New York
353
00:18:05,580 --> 00:18:12,540
production of Cyrano de Bergerac I
354
00:18:08,420 --> 00:18:14,850
wanted to have grace as Roxanne I wanted
355
00:18:12,540 --> 00:18:17,850
her not because of her great acting
356
00:18:14,850 --> 00:18:20,460
ability but because of that discipline
357
00:18:17,850 --> 00:18:23,490
that she appeared to have unfortunately
358
00:18:20,460 --> 00:18:26,130
she never did realize that every part
359
00:18:23,490 --> 00:18:29,790
she went up for on Broadway with the
360
00:18:26,130 --> 00:18:32,040
exception of the father she lost and
361
00:18:29,790 --> 00:18:34,230
when she didn't get it there were
362
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:36,150
mentions of it in the columns and so
363
00:18:34,230 --> 00:18:40,650
forth and so on she was really very very
364
00:18:36,150 --> 00:18:41,420
distressed and she picked herself up and
365
00:18:40,650 --> 00:18:44,160
went on
366
00:18:41,420 --> 00:18:45,900
Mogambo was a picture that grace
367
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:51,120
apparently wanted to do very badly
368
00:18:45,900 --> 00:18:54,750
because she was willing to sign a
369
00:18:51,120 --> 00:18:57,210
long-term contract with MGM to do the
370
00:18:54,750 --> 00:19:00,360
picture I bet all you're going to do for
371
00:18:57,210 --> 00:19:02,280
him what do you expect me to do business
372
00:19:00,360 --> 00:19:02,900
nordley crawl in bed with him and hold
373
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:06,780
his hand
374
00:19:02,900 --> 00:19:10,200
the thought of playing opposite of star
375
00:19:06,780 --> 00:19:15,150
like Clark Gable being directed by John
376
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:17,430
Ford a fellow Irishman and I I also
377
00:19:15,150 --> 00:19:19,140
think she was intrigued with the idea of
378
00:19:17,430 --> 00:19:22,290
going to Africa
379
00:19:19,140 --> 00:19:24,120
on location for Mogambo Clark Gable
380
00:19:22,290 --> 00:19:27,870
described an incident to Rupert Allan
381
00:19:24,120 --> 00:19:30,990
and Look magazine correspondent Grace
382
00:19:27,870 --> 00:19:32,970
was alone and was discovered by cable
383
00:19:30,990 --> 00:19:35,280
she turned to him she saw that she was
384
00:19:32,970 --> 00:19:38,340
crying and he said well are you crying
385
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:40,760
grace she says so beautiful I'm reading
386
00:19:38,340 --> 00:19:43,679
the snows of Kilimanjaro by Hemingway
387
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:47,160
and I looked up and I was just reading
388
00:19:43,679 --> 00:19:49,350
about this frozen leopard I think they
389
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:51,299
found away having the snows of this high
390
00:19:49,350 --> 00:19:53,820
mountain highest mountain in Africa and
391
00:19:51,299 --> 00:19:55,620
I looked up for my book thinking about
392
00:19:53,820 --> 00:19:59,040
what a beautiful picture it was inside
393
00:19:55,620 --> 00:20:01,260
Hemingway and I saw a lion walking along
394
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,950
with the seashore it was just too
395
00:20:01,260 --> 00:20:05,940
beautiful
396
00:20:01,950 --> 00:20:08,760
she gave human personalities too to her
397
00:20:05,940 --> 00:20:11,100
animals very often she gave animal
398
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:13,020
personalities to humans she used to call
399
00:20:11,100 --> 00:20:16,049
some of her close friends bird everyone
400
00:20:13,020 --> 00:20:18,240
she called Rita bird a bird this bird
401
00:20:16,049 --> 00:20:21,860
that bird I mean people and animals
402
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,860
became interchangeable with grace
403
00:20:24,350 --> 00:20:29,220
Grace's role in Mogambo earned her an
404
00:20:27,419 --> 00:20:36,049
Academy Award nomination as Best

00:20:38,850 --> 00:20:43,470
it's in all the books the woman always
408
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:47,190
falls for the white hunter and when guys
409
00:20:43,470 --> 00:20:48,780
make the most of it they're blamers when

00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:57,900
some critics called her a star in the
413
00:20:52,590 --> 00:21:00,720
making few realized how luminous that
414
00:20:57,900 --> 00:21:01,230
star would become and in how short a
415
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,239
time

Hollywood as far as Jack and Margaret
418
00:21:06,859 --> 00:21:12,589
Kelly were concerned was no place for a
419
00:21:09,229 --> 00:21:15,139
girl on her own on funding many times we
420
00:21:12,589 --> 00:21:16,779
used to go to church and then uncle
421
00:21:15,139 --> 00:21:20,359
George who lived in Southern California
422
00:21:16,779 --> 00:21:22,609
but come pick us up and take us for a
423
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:25,609
ride around and had lunch take us to
424
00:21:22,609 --> 00:21:28,489
lunch and she enjoyed those rides with
425
00:21:25,609 --> 00:21:29,719
George so much that the two of them
426
00:21:28,489 --> 00:21:32,570
would talk I would sit in the backseat
427
00:21:29,719 --> 00:21:36,579
and maybe take a little nap but the two
428
00:21:32,570 --> 00:21:40,159
of them would talk theater and books and
429

poetry some of the people in town the
430
00:21:40,159 --> 00:21:43,969
studio heads were quite mystified by
431
00:21:42,709 --> 00:21:45,019
heard they didn't understand why she
432
00:21:43,969 --> 00:21:47,539
didn't want to go to their dinner
433
00:21:45,019 --> 00:21:49,969
parties and be seated next to orally a
434
00:21:47,539 --> 00:21:51,979
people that young actresses should want
435
00:21:49,969 --> 00:21:57,799
to be seated next to she didn't rush out
436
00:21:51,979 --> 00:21:59,419
effusively and reach forward to make
437
00:21:57,799 --> 00:22:02,629
lots and lots and lots of friends she
438
00:21:59,419 --> 00:22:06,589
got up five o'clock in the morning went
439
00:22:02,629 --> 00:22:08,929
on the set came home and grab something
440
00:22:06,589 --> 00:22:12,709
to eat usually a hamburger which was
441
00:22:08,929 --> 00:22:12,950
Gracie's favorite food and then went to
442
00:22:12,709 --> 00:22:15,409
bed
443
00:22:12,950 --> 00:22:18,499
she was always charming she was never
444
00:22:15,409 --> 00:22:20,450
cold she was never icy to anybody on the
445
00:22:18,499 --> 00:22:23,690
on the set she could give that
446
00:22:20,450 --> 00:22:27,259
appearance of coolness of being sort of
447
00:22:23,690 --> 00:22:30,320
above at all at all times but inside she
448
00:22:27,259 --> 00:22:32,989
was a very often seizing and she was a
449
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:36,229
she was a volatile person but always
450
00:22:32,989 --> 00:22:40,190
under control Alfred Hitchcock used to
451
00:22:36,229 --> 00:22:46,339
say about Grace Kelly with his usual wit
452
00:22:40,190 --> 00:22:49,369
that her apparent rigidity was like a
453
00:22:46,339 --> 00:22:51,590
mountain covered with snow but that the
454
00:22:49,369 --> 00:22:54,670
mountain was a volcano

[Music]
456
00:22:55,510 --> 00:23:07,330
in 1953 director Hitchcock found in
457
00:22:59,590 --> 00:23:12,940
grace His perfect heroine there was a
458
00:23:07,330 --> 00:23:14,680
scene in the dial M for murder where he
459
00:23:12,940 --> 00:23:17,320
wanted her to answer the phone by
460
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:19,660
putting on her bathrobe and she said
461
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:22,630
there was no reason for her to add to
462
00:23:19,660 --> 00:23:24,670
put a bathrobe on just to answer a
463
00:23:22,630 --> 00:23:26,770
telephone with no one else in the house
464
00:23:24,670 --> 00:23:27,850
but her and he says what would you wear
465
00:23:26,770 --> 00:23:31,150
he said I read a nightgown
466
00:23:27,850 --> 00:23:33,710
she so he said all right and it worked
467
00:23:31,150 --> 00:23:36,869
out very well hello
468
00:23:33,710 --> 00:23:36,869
[Music]

[Music]
470
00:23:50,070 --> 00:24:03,250
she seemed to know the movements before
471
00:23:56,769 --> 00:24:06,669
Hitchcock had anything to say about and
472
00:24:03,250 --> 00:24:10,779
I think I think Hitchcock like that
473
00:24:06,669 --> 00:24:13,330
I think everybody liked it and the
474
00:24:10,779 --> 00:24:17,380
picture of rear windows Hitchcock said
475
00:24:13,330 --> 00:24:22,620
now - grace now you're going to have to
476
00:24:17,380 --> 00:24:26,110
go across and go get into the room and
477
00:24:22,620 --> 00:24:29,440
grace with with without any direction
478
00:24:26,110 --> 00:24:34,740
she just went over climbed up the fire
479
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:38,590
escape climbed in one of the windows and
480
00:24:34,740 --> 00:24:42,399
sneaked into the door and then looked
481
00:24:38,590 --> 00:24:46,260
over across the across the way to
482
00:24:42,399 --> 00:24:52,450
Hitchcock and said is that what you mean
483
00:24:46,260 --> 00:24:56,110
well everybody everybody applauded and
484
00:24:52,450 --> 00:24:59,590
she deserved it because this was exactly
485
00:24:56,110 --> 00:25:02,919
what Albert Hitchcock wanted what grace
486
00:24:59,590 --> 00:25:07,750
brought as an actress was grace brought
487
00:25:02,919 --> 00:25:11,230
the actual young woman of the 50s into a
488
00:25:07,750 --> 00:25:13,779
vision of glamour was a very proper era
489
00:25:11,230 --> 00:25:16,269
in a way very Primera underneath that of
490
00:25:13,779 --> 00:25:19,240
course there was always the sense of
491
00:25:16,269 --> 00:25:21,960
flirtatiousness of young women and the
492
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,960
sense of fun
493
00:25:22,190 --> 00:25:30,049
grace had truly arrived she appeared on
494
00:25:26,269 --> 00:25:32,389
the covers of national magazines but
495
00:25:30,049 --> 00:25:35,600
success meant more time we spent in
496
00:25:32,389 --> 00:25:38,509
Hollywood she was really a family person
497
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:40,730
she doesn't like to be alone I remember
498
00:25:38,509 --> 00:25:44,029
when she first went to California to
499
00:25:40,730 --> 00:25:45,860
make films she lived alone and suddenly
500
00:25:44,029 --> 00:25:48,559
she asked to eat again to come and live
501
00:25:45,860 --> 00:25:49,759
with her and grace let me in and there
502
00:25:48,559 --> 00:25:52,009
she was she was wearing the same
503
00:25:49,759 --> 00:25:55,460
Philadelphia skirt same sensible shoes
504
00:25:52,009 --> 00:25:57,049
the same tied back hair except now she
505
00:25:55,460 --> 00:26:03,049
was becoming a very valuable property
506
00:25:57,049 --> 00:26:06,830
and I had no idea that her background
507
00:26:03,049 --> 00:26:14,330
was one of opulence I thought of her as
508
00:26:06,830 --> 00:26:17,179
a co-worker an actress then out of the
509
00:26:14,330 --> 00:26:19,700
clear blue sky and very directly openly
510
00:26:17,179 --> 00:26:22,669
and warmly she said would you like to
511
00:26:19,700 --> 00:26:24,500
share the flat how would that fit in
512
00:26:22,669 --> 00:26:26,090
with your schedule I said oh I have to
513
00:26:24,500 --> 00:26:28,100
get up at five in the morning said I
514
00:26:26,090 --> 00:26:30,559
have to get up at five - I said but good
515
00:26:28,100 --> 00:26:32,269
sleep at 9:00 said terrific that's it I
516
00:26:30,559 --> 00:26:34,429
think the thing that most people forget
517
00:26:32,269 --> 00:26:36,799
is that when all of this was happening
518
00:26:34,429 --> 00:26:39,129
to grace this extraordinary excitement
519
00:26:36,799 --> 00:26:42,470
about her career being generated and and
520
00:26:39,129 --> 00:26:45,409
he rolls with the world's most famous
521
00:26:42,470 --> 00:26:48,080
leading man and the world's most
522
00:26:45,409 --> 00:26:50,299
respected directors she was just a girl
523
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:52,009
in her early 20s one time in Hollywood
524
00:26:50,299 --> 00:26:53,659
Grace and I were invited to what turned
525
00:26:52,009 --> 00:26:56,059
out to be a rather sticky dinner party
526
00:26:53,659 --> 00:26:58,129
with two bachelors we had thought it was
527
00:26:56,059 --> 00:26:59,659
going to be this grand party with an
528
00:26:58,129 --> 00:27:01,070
awful lot of people and there we were
529
00:26:59,659 --> 00:27:05,690
and the lights were getting lower and
530
00:27:01,070 --> 00:27:09,320
the wine was getting heavier and I was
531
00:27:05,690 --> 00:27:12,230
getting very nervous and I nudged grace
532
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:14,330
under the table Grace had her glasses on
533
00:27:12,230 --> 00:27:17,090
I think that was her protection mine was
534
00:27:14,330 --> 00:27:18,470
just a sort of chatter nervously and say
535
00:27:17,090 --> 00:27:20,509
let's go let's go grace and she
536
00:27:18,470 --> 00:27:23,779
whispered back that's right until after
537
00:27:20,509 --> 00:27:26,149
dessert it might be good the bridges at
538
00:27:23,779 --> 00:27:28,730
toko-ri gave grace the opportunity to
539
00:27:26,149 --> 00:27:32,540
play opposite an actor she admired
540
00:27:28,730 --> 00:27:37,490
William Holden Harry you've got to tell
541
00:27:32,540 --> 00:27:39,650
me about these bridges the kind of
542
00:27:37,490 --> 00:27:44,169
concentration that a good actor was
543
00:27:39,650 --> 00:27:44,169
capable of would definitely infect her
544
00:27:44,740 --> 00:27:51,230
they know we're not trying to fly above
545
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:53,809
the mountains we're gonna fly between
546
00:27:51,230 --> 00:27:55,790
them it would make her respond and and
547
00:27:53,809 --> 00:27:57,049
that way you could see to that she had a
548
00:27:55,790 --> 00:27:59,030
nervous system that was similar to
549
00:27:57,049 --> 00:28:00,650
litmus paper she reacted immediately
550
00:27:59,030 --> 00:28:05,090
didn't want to tell me because she
551
00:28:00,650 --> 00:28:08,270
didn't want me to worry what I don't
552
00:28:05,090 --> 00:28:13,820
want you to worry either about me I mean
553
00:28:08,270 --> 00:28:19,390
I know what the Admiral was trying to
554
00:28:13,820 --> 00:28:22,190
tell me I had to face those register
555
00:28:19,390 --> 00:28:24,650
director George Seaton was impressed by
556
00:28:22,190 --> 00:28:26,540
Grace's performance and wanted her for
557
00:28:24,650 --> 00:28:30,140
the demanding role of the wife and the
558
00:28:26,540 --> 00:28:34,570
country girl but before releasing her
559
00:28:30,140 --> 00:28:38,419
MGM insisted she appear in green fire
560
00:28:34,570 --> 00:28:40,700
which wasn't one of her favorite films
561
00:28:38,419 --> 00:28:42,590
she was tired when she started she had
562
00:28:40,700 --> 00:28:44,540
done about six pictures in a row and she
563
00:28:42,590 --> 00:28:47,570
went had to go to South America film
564
00:28:44,540 --> 00:28:50,390
like green fire that absolutely made her
565
00:28:47,570 --> 00:28:52,010
blazing mad I'm use you really what she
566
00:28:50,390 --> 00:28:54,559
said this is not what I wanted to be an
567
00:28:52,010 --> 00:28:59,600
actress for but she did do it in order
568
00:28:54,559 --> 00:29:01,700
to get the part in a country girl at the
569
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:05,120
moment all I want is for you to get
570
00:29:01,700 --> 00:29:06,040
dressed so we can get out of here who's
571
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,720
in the yard
572
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:10,640
Frank I'm warning you I'm going to hit
573
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:12,080
you with the first thing I pick up the
574
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:14,390
greatest expression of courage that
575
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:17,690
grace demonstrated was the throwing away
576
00:29:14,390 --> 00:29:20,210
of her mask of beauty and however our
577
00:29:17,690 --> 00:29:22,220
elegance nobody understood at all I mean
578
00:29:20,210 --> 00:29:24,530
why would this gorgeous creature
579
00:29:22,220 --> 00:29:26,150
want to be seen in an old tacky sweater
580
00:29:24,530 --> 00:29:28,970
with her hair pulled back in a bun and
581
00:29:26,150 --> 00:29:31,730
looking Haggard she desperately wanted
582
00:29:28,970 --> 00:29:34,760
to be this great actress he'll be in the
583
00:29:31,730 --> 00:29:36,890
strong sober hand a Bernie Dodd can you
584
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:39,380
stand him up on his feet again because
585
00:29:36,890 --> 00:29:40,679
that's where all my prayers of God to
586
00:29:39,380 --> 00:29:42,840
see that one hole
587
00:29:40,679 --> 00:29:46,320
they are when he can stand alone again
588
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:47,850
and I might forgive even you mr. Dodd if
589
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:51,269
you can keep him up long enough for me
590
00:29:47,850 --> 00:29:53,669
to get out from under all I wonders my
591
00:29:51,269 --> 00:29:56,190
own name and a modest job to buy sugar
592
00:29:53,669 --> 00:29:58,919
for my coffee would you believe that can
593
00:29:56,190 --> 00:30:01,289
you you can't believe that a woman is
594
00:29:58,919 --> 00:30:04,200
crazy out of a mind and live alone in
595
00:30:01,289 --> 00:30:06,539
one room by herself listen to me listen
596
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:09,470
to me why are you holding me I said
597
00:30:06,539 --> 00:30:09,470
you're holding me
598
00:30:11,870 --> 00:30:35,950
[Music]
599
00:30:27,450 --> 00:30:38,710
angry in a single year 1954 she had
600
00:30:35,950 --> 00:30:41,970
completed four major films for the
601
00:30:38,710 --> 00:30:45,089
country and won an Academy Award
602
00:30:41,970 --> 00:30:45,089
[Music]
603
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:52,740
he was pronounced one of Hollywood's
604
00:30:47,909 --> 00:30:56,399
major stars he was 24 and it seemed she
605
00:30:52,740 --> 00:30:58,169
had it all it was after grace that had
606
00:30:56,399 --> 00:31:00,929
enormous success in films and bought a
607
00:30:58,169 --> 00:31:03,299
very big posh apartment and I have an
608
00:31:00,929 --> 00:31:06,059
image of her father walking through the
609
00:31:03,299 --> 00:31:07,799
lobby and Grace sort of peering out
610
00:31:06,059 --> 00:31:09,809
saying Darius there he's coming
611
00:31:07,799 --> 00:31:12,629
it was as if this fictional character
612
00:31:09,809 --> 00:31:14,490
The Great Gatsby come down to earth and
613
00:31:12,629 --> 00:31:17,789
was going to look at her apartment and
614
00:31:14,490 --> 00:31:19,590
she really wanted to to prove to him
615
00:31:17,789 --> 00:31:21,899
that she had accomplished a great deal
616
00:31:19,590 --> 00:31:25,590
and that was the first time I got a
617
00:31:21,899 --> 00:31:28,669
sense of an undercurrent of something
618
00:31:25,590 --> 00:31:32,750
other than this picture book family
619
00:31:28,669 --> 00:31:38,850
Grace dated but no one really seriously
620
00:31:32,750 --> 00:31:41,460
until a latter part of her career there
621
00:31:38,850 --> 00:31:44,820
were so many people that have were in
622
00:31:41,460 --> 00:31:49,080
love with her most men were she had that
623
00:31:44,820 --> 00:31:51,870
quality of I don't know turning metal
624
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:55,289
and he said she was gonna be my maid of
625
00:31:51,870 --> 00:31:57,929
honor and when I the baby sister is
626
00:31:55,289 --> 00:31:59,710
getting married that she's not to think
627
00:31:57,929 --> 00:32:02,990
about you know
628
00:31:59,710 --> 00:32:05,540
right well I want to get married - well
629
00:32:02,990 --> 00:32:07,460
I was married in June and I think I
630
00:32:05,540 --> 00:32:09,350
broke the news that I was pregnant I'm
631
00:32:07,460 --> 00:32:11,480
gonna have a baby in May to her and she
632
00:32:09,350 --> 00:32:12,440
certainly is you are going to have a
633
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:16,750
baby
634
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:19,670
oh I'm with a babe I'm missing things in
635
00:32:16,750 --> 00:32:22,580
1955 grace would appear in a film that
636
00:32:19,670 --> 00:32:25,130
would change her life location worked
637
00:32:22,580 --> 00:32:27,950
for to catch a thief took place near the
638
00:32:25,130 --> 00:32:31,250
ancient Principality of Monaco her
639
00:32:27,950 --> 00:32:35,470
co-star would be Cary Grant once again
640
00:32:31,250 --> 00:32:35,470
she was directed by Alfred Hitchcock
641
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:43,890
what he extracted from her in that
642
00:32:37,740 --> 00:32:46,500
combination of the the cool Beauty who
643
00:32:43,890 --> 00:32:50,550
held it all back and then just gave up
644
00:32:46,500 --> 00:32:52,740
just enough to be tantalizing and just
645
00:32:50,550 --> 00:33:00,600
enough to make the leading man and the
646
00:32:52,740 --> 00:33:03,420
audience want a little more never had a
647
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:10,130
better off in your whole life was
648
00:33:03,420 --> 00:33:17,250
everything I've never had a crazier one
649
00:33:10,130 --> 00:33:21,570
as long as you're satisfied know as well
650
00:33:17,250 --> 00:33:22,850
as I do this necklace is imitation and
651
00:33:21,570 --> 00:33:28,920
I'm not
652
00:33:22,850 --> 00:33:28,920
[Music]
653
00:33:30,870 --> 00:33:35,940
I mean she had a lot of bows and
654
00:33:33,870 --> 00:33:38,370
boyfriends who were actors and human
655
00:33:35,940 --> 00:33:40,800
beings and dress designers than this and
656
00:33:38,370 --> 00:33:44,310
that but there wasn't this one person
657
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:46,560
who could fulfill this childhood image
658
00:33:44,310 --> 00:33:48,870
that great many of us have about wanting
659
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:51,390
that one man in our life to be special
660
00:33:48,870 --> 00:33:56,550
and really to be the old prince on the
661
00:33:51,390 --> 00:33:58,770
white charger a French magazine had
662
00:33:56,550 --> 00:34:00,810
decided the palace in Monaco would be a
663
00:33:58,770 --> 00:34:05,580
perfect background for grace or a
664
00:34:00,810 --> 00:34:07,650
publicity layout then Prince Renier
665
00:34:05,580 --> 00:34:11,520
indicated he was willing to meet the
666
00:34:07,650 --> 00:34:14,670
beautiful star though he was known as a
667
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:16,350
shy and modest man when Sueno the third
668
00:34:14,670 --> 00:34:19,280
was called europe's most eligible
669
00:34:16,350 --> 00:34:21,900
bachelor at his meeting the grace
670
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:24,210
immediately provoked interest rumors
671
00:34:21,900 --> 00:34:26,730
linking you with virtually everybody and
672
00:34:24,210 --> 00:34:28,710
the latest one is with Grace Kelly would
673
00:34:26,730 --> 00:34:30,750
you comment on that fourth no I just
674
00:34:28,710 --> 00:34:33,600
read Grace Kelly she came to Paris when
675
00:34:30,750 --> 00:34:35,880
she was a can for the festival and
676
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:37,860
that's all of a little any story that
677
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:42,900
you're actively seeking a wife would you
678
00:34:37,860 --> 00:34:44,100
care to comment on that no I'm not what
679
00:34:42,900 --> 00:34:46,110
if you did meet a girl that you like
680
00:34:44,100 --> 00:34:48,330
here with all the publicity about it
681
00:34:46,110 --> 00:34:51,660
prevent you from doing about it no I
682
00:34:48,330 --> 00:34:53,370
shouldn't I don't think anything if you
683
00:34:51,660 --> 00:35:00,570
were to marry what kind of a girl do you
684
00:34:53,370 --> 00:35:02,850
have in mind I don't know being the best
685
00:35:00,570 --> 00:35:06,330
as a lesson Jack Kelly had drilled into
686
00:35:02,850 --> 00:35:08,940
his children Grace had excelled she had
687
00:35:06,330 --> 00:35:12,770
reached the top of her profession but
688
00:35:08,940 --> 00:35:12,770
for Grace Kelly there had to be more
689
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:18,539
MGM had no idea of graces future when it
690
00:35:16,859 --> 00:35:24,420
cast her in a film that was oddly
691
00:35:18,539 --> 00:35:28,019
prophetic the Swan it is based on a play
692
00:35:24,420 --> 00:35:32,160
by Moana and the story was very simply
693
00:35:28,019 --> 00:35:34,090
the story of a princess I want to be
694
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:37,330
good to you
695
00:35:34,090 --> 00:35:39,340
I went a hundred I want to tell you
696
00:35:37,330 --> 00:35:40,030
everything that's in my heart all my
697
00:35:39,340 --> 00:35:49,120
secret
698
00:35:40,030 --> 00:35:52,050
I adore Napoleon to her I want to hear
699
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:52,050
you call me by Renny
700
00:35:52,420 --> 00:35:55,420
Alexandra
701
00:35:55,820 --> 00:36:04,020
Alexandra there was an innate
702
00:36:00,530 --> 00:36:06,720
aristocracy elegance about her not only
703
00:36:04,020 --> 00:36:10,619
in comportment and manners but also in
704
00:36:06,720 --> 00:36:13,859
in thinking in being
705
00:36:10,619 --> 00:36:16,710
it has been a cliche to say that the
706
00:36:13,859 --> 00:36:19,849
Grace Kelly looked like a princess but
707
00:36:16,710 --> 00:36:19,849
she did
708
00:36:20,420 --> 00:36:26,460
there was another element in Grace Kelly
709
00:36:24,299 --> 00:36:30,510
that was all important
710
00:36:26,460 --> 00:36:34,440
she had this extraordinary sense of
711
00:36:30,510 --> 00:36:39,230
humor not only and first of all about
712
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:42,030
herself never taking herself seriously
713
00:36:39,230 --> 00:36:44,640
during filming of The Swan Alec Guinness
714
00:36:42,030 --> 00:36:47,520
had an Indian tomahawk smuggled into
715
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:50,809
Grace's bed and she quickly returned the
716
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:54,720
common joke would continue for years
717
00:36:50,809 --> 00:36:57,059
they never spoke about finding it know
718
00:36:54,720 --> 00:36:59,490
her passing alone he just disappeared
719
00:36:57,059 --> 00:37:01,200
went from one to the other I get back
720
00:36:59,490 --> 00:37:04,890
home one night I'm playing in the show
721
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:05,760
get into bed and I say to my wife for
722
00:37:04,890 --> 00:37:09,180
God's sake
723
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:10,859
why on earth do we need a cold hot water
724
00:37:09,180 --> 00:37:12,510
book why we need to hold about football
725
00:37:10,859 --> 00:37:12,930
and should I've been what you're talking
726
00:37:12,510 --> 00:37:15,950
about
727
00:37:12,930 --> 00:37:19,410
and it was this identical tomahawk
728
00:37:15,950 --> 00:37:21,299
somehow Alec Guinness got it into the
729
00:37:19,410 --> 00:37:24,960
palace at least once into the Grace's
730
00:37:21,299 --> 00:37:27,780
bed so while she was downstairs
731
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:29,640
the tomahawk was put under the Covenant
732
00:37:27,780 --> 00:37:31,079
so she end up at the time out she read
733
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:32,819
in two papers in Europe that he was
734
00:37:31,079 --> 00:37:35,010
being honored by the Academy of Motion
735
00:37:32,819 --> 00:37:37,980

Wilshire hotel it was phenomenal
740
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:52,770
analysis extraordinarily withdrawn
741
00:37:48,510 --> 00:37:55,349
glamorous glacial personality poured
742
00:37:52,770 --> 00:37:57,589
forth this sense of the ridiculous that
743
00:37:55,349 --> 00:38:01,049
only the British could appreciate or a
744
00:37:57,589 --> 00:38:02,520
five-year-old child ever said of that
745
00:38:01,049 --> 00:38:04,410
finishing school I think the finished
746
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:06,900
are there come on mother
747
00:38:04,410 --> 00:38:10,920
Jesse boys Landis played the Grace
748
00:38:06,900 --> 00:38:14,130
Kelly's mother in two films and when
749
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:16,710
grace married Prince Rainier she said
750
00:38:14,130 --> 00:38:19,260
I'm the one who advised her to marry him
751
00:38:16,710 --> 00:38:22,230
and told her that would be your greatest
752
00:38:19,260 --> 00:38:28,559
role and one Monday morning she came
753
00:38:22,230 --> 00:38:31,310
into lb mayor's office and said mr.
754
00:38:28,559 --> 00:38:33,740
mayor I'm going to get married
755
00:38:31,310 --> 00:38:35,990

757
00:38:35,990 --> 00:38:40,670
what above everybody in all of it no she
758
00:38:38,780 --> 00:38:42,370
said mr. Maron you don't quite
759
00:38:40,670 --> 00:38:45,050
understand
760
00:38:42,370 --> 00:38:47,720
Grace Kelly had been newsworthy as a
761
00:38:45,050 --> 00:38:58,850
movie actress but now her important
762
00:38:47,720 --> 00:39:03,310
sword well I think you can't interfere
763
00:38:58,850 --> 00:39:03,310
with love with each other well II
764
00:39:04,150 --> 00:39:09,830
reporters hung on every word and will
765
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:11,390
alert to every move made by grace or
766
00:39:09,830 --> 00:39:14,270
Prince Rainier will you continue with
767
00:39:11,390 --> 00:39:16,220
your career after your marriage what
768
00:39:14,270 --> 00:39:18,770
that decision will be made by the friend
769
00:39:16,220 --> 00:39:20,750
there's miss Kelly trying to make any
770
00:39:18,770 --> 00:39:23,000
more more movies as far as you know I
771
00:39:20,750 --> 00:39:26,870
don't think he did come to the house
772
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:28,940
that Christmas and dawn and I were at
773
00:39:26,870 --> 00:39:31,250
our only little apartment and we asked
774
00:39:28,940 --> 00:39:33,250
him over for dinner and he fit in very
775
00:39:31,250 --> 00:39:35,330
well I even helped with the dishes
776
00:39:33,250 --> 00:39:36,770
Renier when we first met him I think
777
00:39:35,330 --> 00:39:38,780
might have been a little shocked with us
778
00:39:36,770 --> 00:39:43,990
when we think come on Renny you know but
779
00:39:38,780 --> 00:39:43,990
he just fit into the family beautifully
780
00:39:45,430 --> 00:39:53,660
in 1956 grace made her last Hollywood
781
00:39:49,610 --> 00:39:55,720
film high society in it she proudly wore
782
00:39:53,660 --> 00:39:59,600
her new engagement ring
783
00:39:55,720 --> 00:40:02,970
[Music]
784
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:08,460
the sense of style
785
00:40:02,970 --> 00:40:11,340
how do I'm high comedy performance that
786
00:40:08,460 --> 00:40:12,840
she gave in high society vastly
787
00:40:11,340 --> 00:40:15,660
different from anything that she had
788
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:17,640
ever done before did you did not find
789
00:40:15,660 --> 00:40:19,680

is your name dear grace a sense of fun
794
00:40:25,740 --> 00:40:31,790
would never again be as publicly
795
00:40:27,900 --> 00:40:36,090
revealed my name is Elizabeth imbrie
796
00:40:31,790 --> 00:40:38,570
Elizabeth oh it sounds like a medieval
797
00:40:36,090 --> 00:40:41,760
Saint to was burned to death
798
00:40:38,570 --> 00:40:44,820
thank you she had made this
799
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:47,640
extraordinary luminous climb to the
800
00:40:44,820 --> 00:40:49,200
absolute top apex of the industry there
801
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:51,360
are lot of people that have just quality
802
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:53,250
and have no electricity she combined
803
00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:55,530
them she could have called the shots
804
00:40:53,250 --> 00:40:57,180
from then on I mean then she was finally
805
00:40:55,530 --> 00:40:59,730
in a position not to have to argue about
806
00:40:57,180 --> 00:41:01,410
the film she wanted to do not two people
807
00:40:59,730 --> 00:41:03,540
would have bought things for her people
808
00:41:01,410 --> 00:41:04,970
would have would plan productions around
809
00:41:03,540 --> 00:41:09,180
her they would have done anything and
810
00:41:04,970 --> 00:41:13,710
she fell in love and she said bye I'm
811
00:41:09,180 --> 00:41:17,850
going off to be mrs. in this case and
812
00:41:13,710 --> 00:41:19,790
the Princess of Monaco and before we all
813
00:41:17,850 --> 00:41:23,220
knew what she was she was gone
814
00:41:19,790 --> 00:41:26,220
Grace Kelly had never really enjoyed the
815
00:41:23,220 --> 00:41:28,140
publicity that came with stardom now she
816
00:41:26,220 --> 00:41:31,590
would feel the burden of true
817
00:41:28,140 --> 00:41:36,330
international celebrity I don't know how
818
00:41:31,590 --> 00:41:41,690
she's able to protect that small core
819
00:41:36,330 --> 00:41:48,090
that is so necessary that keeps you sane
820
00:41:41,690 --> 00:41:49,530
but she did she was evil under the much
821
00:41:48,090 --> 00:41:54,260
extraordinary
822
00:41:49,530 --> 00:41:57,480
barrage of different pressing and
823
00:41:54,260 --> 00:42:00,090
personal need that people had I mean
824
00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:02,780
people just I don't know how they do it
825
00:42:00,090 --> 00:42:07,380
but they seem to want to get inside
826
00:42:02,780 --> 00:42:10,070
particularly press a person soul and
827
00:42:07,380 --> 00:42:13,530
grace had the extraordinary ability of
828
00:42:10,070 --> 00:42:15,690
not rising above it separating herself
829
00:42:13,530 --> 00:42:20,250
from her there was almost a mystical
830
00:42:15,690 --> 00:42:22,200
kind of ability she had to be the quiet
831
00:42:20,250 --> 00:42:25,890
eye in the middle of a horrendous
832
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:32,610
Kartika and there she was just very
833
00:42:25,890 --> 00:42:35,670
mature and very exciting so I kind of
834
00:42:32,610 --> 00:42:39,240
there's a sad to be told but I hope to
835
00:42:35,670 --> 00:42:42,600
be that quite awful she chose as any
836
00:42:39,240 --> 00:42:46,890
average young woman would her six best
837
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:50,070
friends and her sister to was to attend
838
00:42:46,890 --> 00:42:52,860
her at her wedding to the prince Grace
839
00:42:50,070 --> 00:42:55,400
Kelly of Philadelphia but most of her
840
00:42:52,860 --> 00:43:00,740
family and many of her closest friends
841
00:42:55,400 --> 00:43:00,740
sailed away to become a princess
842
00:43:04,090 --> 00:43:09,290
Vence Phineas yachts bears his betrothed
843
00:43:06,860 --> 00:43:11,030
in triumph into the harbor at Monaco a
844
00:43:09,290 --> 00:43:12,980
few hours earlier grayscale once we
845
00:43:11,030 --> 00:43:15,950
arrived in Monaco it was of course all
846
00:43:12,980 --> 00:43:19,490
the madness that one has seen in over
847
00:43:15,950 --> 00:43:22,750
the years of what went on they came by
848
00:43:19,490 --> 00:43:26,690
the thousands who welcomed and to judge
849
00:43:22,750 --> 00:43:30,170
she was rich she was beautiful but she
850
00:43:26,690 --> 00:43:31,040
was an American and to some of them just
851
00:43:30,170 --> 00:43:34,300
an actress
852
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:38,780
I think grace had a tough job being
853
00:43:34,300 --> 00:43:44,230
movie star from America moving into the
854
00:43:38,780 --> 00:43:47,660
life of the symbol of a southern country
855
00:43:44,230 --> 00:43:51,500
the constant round of parties and being
856
00:43:47,660 --> 00:43:55,360
part of this glamorous and mythological
857
00:43:51,500 --> 00:43:57,770
event and and just simply being around
858
00:43:55,360 --> 00:44:02,160
royalty was new to all of us
859
00:43:57,770 --> 00:44:04,590
[Music]
860
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:07,770
as Greece took up a totally new role
861
00:44:04,590 --> 00:44:18,630
some who did not know her watched and
862
00:44:07,770 --> 00:44:26,130
waited for her to fail at the PDE at
863
00:44:18,630 --> 00:44:30,210
spirited donkey it was like a fairy tale
864
00:44:26,130 --> 00:44:33,230
all of it and that's the part that we
865
00:44:30,210 --> 00:44:33,230
got to be part of
866
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:38,480
it was not a fairy tale
867
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:43,080
[Music]
868
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:45,420
grace relaxed at her husband's side but
869
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:47,790
you knew to the Monegasque s-- she now
870
00:44:45,420 --> 00:44:48,930
had to prove herself worthy of being the
871
00:44:47,790 --> 00:44:51,000
wife of their ruler
872
00:44:48,930 --> 00:44:56,780
please Renier the third
873
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:56,780
[Music]
874
00:44:58,850 --> 00:45:06,570
the last time I saw grace was in my own
875
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:09,510
imagination when she was on the yacht
876
00:45:06,570 --> 00:45:11,550
chug chug chugging away into the
877
00:45:09,510 --> 00:45:13,800
Mediterranean after the wedding was over
878
00:45:11,550 --> 00:45:14,550
and I realized that there was no more
879
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:16,950
Grace Kelly
880
00:45:14,550 --> 00:45:18,570
Grace Kelly was a memory Grace Kelly was
881
00:45:16,950 --> 00:45:20,700
histories and fill me please grace of
882
00:45:18,570 --> 00:45:22,500
monoco and then we all went home and she
883
00:45:20,700 --> 00:45:24,930
stayed there this was a very hard
884
00:45:22,500 --> 00:45:29,160
challenge for her because not only the
885
00:45:24,930 --> 00:45:34,350
language barrier brought the foreign
886
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:37,110
world a foreign customer and the
887
00:45:34,350 --> 00:45:37,680
Principality the formal way of doing
888
00:45:37,110 --> 00:45:40,190
things
889
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:43,980
she kept studying things that would
890
00:45:40,190 --> 00:45:47,340
enforce her her position as as princess
891
00:45:43,980 --> 00:45:50,040
she utilized everything around her she
892
00:45:47,340 --> 00:45:52,320
improvised on being a princess the way a
893
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:55,050
really good actress will improvise on a
894
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:56,810
part for example she always tried to
895
00:45:55,050 --> 00:45:59,760
simplify things
896
00:45:56,810 --> 00:46:01,980
Alexander is a hairdresser in Paris
897
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:04,650
fixed for her a number of special pieces
898
00:46:01,980 --> 00:46:06,840
of hair attachment so when she would
899
00:46:04,650 --> 00:46:09,450
travel with all these French aristocrats
900
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:11,550
and while they were busy making
901
00:46:09,450 --> 00:46:13,530
appointments with hairdressers they were
902
00:46:11,550 --> 00:46:15,660
whirling that race was always ready
903
00:46:13,530 --> 00:46:18,630
there was a lot of these hair pieces
904
00:46:15,660 --> 00:46:21,230
which is you make it into some kind of a
905
00:46:18,630 --> 00:46:24,660
wonderful hairdo never took extra time
906
00:46:21,230 --> 00:46:29,790
since she was fundamentally a working
907
00:46:24,660 --> 00:46:32,010
woman she did everything with with a
908
00:46:29,790 --> 00:46:34,640
great seriousness a surface with a great
909
00:46:32,010 --> 00:46:34,640
sense of responsibility
910
00:46:35,870 --> 00:46:44,810
on cultural or diplomatic occasions with
911
00:46:40,580 --> 00:46:47,720
presidents or with popes she was
912
00:46:44,810 --> 00:46:52,210
expected to be perfect in bearing and
913
00:46:47,720 --> 00:46:52,210
often in her newly acquired language
914
00:46:54,070 --> 00:46:59,660
notes revisited kind of a uh it was
915
00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:03,410
something that I am amazed that she
916
00:46:59,660 --> 00:47:05,390
could could handle I wondered so many
917
00:47:03,410 --> 00:47:06,170
times oh I don't know I know I could
918
00:47:05,390 --> 00:47:08,480
never do that
919
00:47:06,170 --> 00:47:11,600
but she was determined to make it this
920
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:13,400
of it either opposed to explain what
921
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:15,980
will happen in the event twins are born
922
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:19,250
a boy second and a girl first who would
923
00:47:15,980 --> 00:47:20,960
be the ruling monarch the normal
924
00:47:19,250 --> 00:47:22,700
successor would be the elders the
925
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:24,380
children he visits a girl but that
926
00:47:22,700 --> 00:47:27,140
doesn't mean that she will rule because
927
00:47:24,380 --> 00:47:28,940
she can always design or abdicate in
928
00:47:27,140 --> 00:47:31,700
favor of a younger brother and he would
929
00:47:28,940 --> 00:47:34,610
then rule our twins expected not that I
930
00:47:31,700 --> 00:47:36,230
know of Princess Grace is your life her
931
00:47:34,610 --> 00:47:37,960
there the princess what you imagined it
932
00:47:36,230 --> 00:47:41,780
would be before you became a princess
933
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:44,090
well I I said of games princess before I
934
00:47:41,780 --> 00:47:49,310
had much time to imagine what it would
935
00:47:44,090 --> 00:47:53,690
be with a birth of a daughter Caroline
936
00:47:49,310 --> 00:48:01,250
on January 23rd 1957 a line of
937
00:47:53,690 --> 00:48:04,400
succession was secured just fifteen
938
00:48:01,250 --> 00:48:08,260
months later a male heir albert arrived
939
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:08,260
to even greater celebration
940
00:48:08,710 --> 00:48:12,849
I think the meteor thing came was when
941
00:48:10,839 --> 00:48:16,660
she had the children and they did come
942
00:48:12,849 --> 00:48:19,420
very quickly she wanted the children
943
00:48:16,660 --> 00:48:20,170
she'd love to love them and we had so
944
00:48:19,420 --> 00:48:22,540
much fun
945
00:48:20,170 --> 00:48:24,280
roughhousing together her children of my
946
00:48:22,540 --> 00:48:29,619
children our children of the same age
947
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:31,510
and they've gone to camp together done
948
00:48:29,619 --> 00:48:33,700
I've been over to Monaco several times
949
00:48:31,510 --> 00:48:40,599
with the children and they've come here
950
00:48:33,700 --> 00:48:44,980
in Ocean City their leaves were the same
951
00:48:40,599 --> 00:48:47,079
for closeness and for family in addition
952
00:48:44,980 --> 00:48:51,880
to her own children grace would always
953
00:48:47,079 --> 00:48:53,950
have the kelly's prince Renier soon
954
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:59,319
found himself an accepted part of that
955
00:48:53,950 --> 00:49:01,750
family grace always adored children I'd
956
00:48:59,319 --> 00:49:07,089
she almost / adored her own children
957
00:49:01,750 --> 00:49:12,420
she was the typical loving sometimes too
958
00:49:07,089 --> 00:49:12,420
disciplining but always giving mother
959
00:49:12,550 --> 00:49:18,670
private time was essential for them both
960
00:49:15,810 --> 00:49:22,450
family life was a retreat from the
961
00:49:18,670 --> 00:49:24,810
formalities of state grace was
962
00:49:22,450 --> 00:49:27,520
determined to keep her family a success
963
00:49:24,810 --> 00:49:30,460
no matter how demanding her official
964
00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:32,880
schedule there was always time for her
965
00:49:30,460 --> 00:49:32,880
children
966
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:38,790
there were the trips home often with
967
00:49:36,070 --> 00:49:38,790
Prince Renier
968
00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:43,950
there was the anniversary for Margaret
969
00:49:41,430 --> 00:49:45,290
Kelly and her growing brood of
970
00:49:43,950 --> 00:49:50,430
grandchildren
971
00:49:45,290 --> 00:49:53,650
[Music]
972
00:49:50,430 --> 00:49:55,750
or prints Renier cruises on his yacht
973
00:49:53,650 --> 00:49:58,260
meant he could indulge his passion for
974
00:49:55,750 --> 00:49:58,260
fishing
975
00:50:01,940 --> 00:50:07,470
then there was the time set aside for
976
00:50:04,410 --> 00:50:11,280
enjoying the palace pool children and
977
00:50:07,470 --> 00:50:14,010
friends I think she held on to her old
978
00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:16,770
friend in those beginning years because
979
00:50:14,010 --> 00:50:19,190
they were her reality is Grace Kelly and
980
00:50:16,770 --> 00:50:22,140
she didn't want to lose Grace Kelly
981
00:50:19,190 --> 00:50:24,050
there was never any loss of the sense
982
00:50:22,140 --> 00:50:30,810
that she was Gracie from Philadelphia
983
00:50:24,050 --> 00:50:33,240
she was a girl with an American soul and
984
00:50:30,810 --> 00:50:36,090
heart and she brought that to Monaco
985
00:50:33,240 --> 00:50:41,820
with her and she never she never chipped
986
00:50:36,090 --> 00:50:43,770
away at that at all in the back of
987
00:50:41,820 --> 00:50:46,710
Grace's mind was always the possibility
988
00:50:43,770 --> 00:50:48,840
of going back to being a film star I
989
00:50:46,710 --> 00:50:51,600
think she kept it there for those rainy
990
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:56,490
nights I would occasionally read a
991
00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:58,740
script that would intrigue me call her
992
00:50:56,490 --> 00:51:01,980
and send it on when the opportunity
993
00:50:58,740 --> 00:51:04,080
arose to do Marni I think she left at it
994
00:51:01,980 --> 00:51:05,550
I could understand what why she would
995
00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:07,560
want to do it even why Hitchcock would
996
00:51:05,550 --> 00:51:10,230
want to do it Damona gasps were
997
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:11,850
absolutely completely undone because
998
00:51:10,230 --> 00:51:13,350
they thought that she'd abandoned them I
999
00:51:11,850 --> 00:51:15,240
think that the thing that convinced her
1000
00:51:13,350 --> 00:51:18,720
that she couldn't do it was that she was
1001
00:51:15,240 --> 00:51:21,990
a princess about the church and once she
1002
00:51:18,720 --> 00:51:23,880
believed that dignity at being the
1003
00:51:21,990 --> 00:51:27,030
princess of the Catholic Church was more
1004
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:28,560
important than being an actress she
1005
00:51:27,030 --> 00:51:30,860
accepted it but I think it took a long
1006
00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:30,860
time
1007
00:51:31,039 --> 00:51:38,940
in 1965 seven years after the birth of
1008
00:51:34,979 --> 00:51:43,680
Albert Stephanie was born once Grace's
1009
00:51:38,940 --> 00:51:45,479
life as a performing artist seemed to
1010
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:47,549
come to a close as she became for
1011
00:51:45,479 --> 00:51:51,089
instance of Monaco
1012
00:51:47,549 --> 00:51:53,999
she didn't discard her feeling for the
1013
00:51:51,089 --> 00:51:55,529
arts any any part of them I got a letter
1014
00:51:53,999 --> 00:51:59,640
from Grace saying that she was going
1015
00:51:55,529 --> 00:52:01,440
around doing poetry readings for theater
1016
00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:04,380
in London that was being built
1017
00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:06,749
so basically grace was an artist and she
1018
00:52:04,380 --> 00:52:09,869
did it through poetry she wanted very
1019
00:52:06,749 --> 00:52:12,359
much to have Monaco be a cultural center
1020
00:52:09,869 --> 00:52:15,630
Grace established a foundation to
1021
00:52:12,359 --> 00:52:18,779
further her goals ramada gasps had been
1022
00:52:15,630 --> 00:52:21,720
without a playhouse for many years a new
1023
00:52:18,779 --> 00:52:25,729
one was built today this theater draws
1024
00:52:21,720 --> 00:52:25,729
drama companies from around the world
1025
00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:33,650
once the famous Ballet Russe of Monte
1026
00:52:29,810 --> 00:52:40,070
Carlo danced here grace was determined
1027
00:52:33,650 --> 00:52:43,340
to bring those great days back a ballet
1028
00:52:40,070 --> 00:52:45,800
company must have a school through the
1029
00:52:43,340 --> 00:52:48,170
Princess Grace Foundation a small school
1030
00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:51,010
run by one of ballets foremost teachers
1031
00:52:48,170 --> 00:52:56,210
has been transformed into a world-class
1032
00:52:51,010 --> 00:52:59,350
Academy both Caroline and Stephanie had
1033
00:52:56,210 --> 00:52:59,350
studied here as small children
1034
00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:09,110
grace was frequently more than an
1035
00:53:02,210 --> 00:53:11,720
onlooker I remember a particular general
1036
00:53:09,110 --> 00:53:15,140
rehearsal when she asked me the other
1037
00:53:11,720 --> 00:53:17,510
thing I could made them up and all the
1038
00:53:15,140 --> 00:53:20,660
little children gathered around through
1039
00:53:17,510 --> 00:53:23,120
all the faces turned towards the
1040
00:53:20,660 --> 00:53:26,840
princess and she was putting a little
1041
00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:30,230
bit of food on their cheeks and a little
1042
00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:33,050
bit of lipstick on the lid it was love
1043
00:53:30,230 --> 00:53:37,100
of children and a ballet that led to one
1044
00:53:33,050 --> 00:53:40,040
of Graces few returns to film the 1979
1045
00:53:37,100 --> 00:53:42,770
Earl Mac documentary the children of
1046
00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:46,900
theater Street about young dancers in
1047
00:53:42,770 --> 00:53:50,200
Leningrad they are the protagonist but
1048
00:53:46,900 --> 00:53:53,570
as their predecessors have demonstrated
1049
00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:56,210
perhaps the greater protagonist is the
1050
00:53:53,570 --> 00:53:58,220
school they gave to Angelina has
1051
00:53:56,210 --> 00:54:01,160
practiced these movements hundreds and
1052
00:53:58,220 --> 00:54:05,590
hundreds of times in the next six years
1053
00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:05,590
she will repeat them thousands of times
1054
00:54:07,710 --> 00:54:14,300
what makes it worth it is bid
1055
00:54:11,860 --> 00:54:16,710
[Music]
1056
00:54:14,300 --> 00:54:19,340
grace knew the demands of great
1057
00:54:16,710 --> 00:54:19,340
performance
1058
00:54:19,850 --> 00:54:26,720
but for the Monegasque s-- grace herself
1059
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:30,950
had gone beyond performance through the
1060
00:54:26,720 --> 00:54:34,760
years by her diligence her constancy she
1061
00:54:30,950 --> 00:54:38,870
truly was her serene Highness Princess
1062
00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:40,280
Grace of Monaco you know I don't wake up
1063
00:54:38,870 --> 00:54:43,010
in the morning thinking of living a
1064
00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:47,210
fairy tale I have the job to get done
1065
00:54:43,010 --> 00:54:50,930
and children to to raise and a lot of
1066
00:54:47,210 --> 00:54:53,090
responsibilities an obligation I like to
1067
00:54:50,930 --> 00:54:55,370
think that they would consider me a
1068
00:54:53,090 --> 00:54:59,150
professional at my job no matter what it
1069
00:54:55,370 --> 00:55:00,830
would be if I take on something I like
1070
00:54:59,150 --> 00:55:03,340
to do it well and I like to do it
1071
00:55:00,830 --> 00:55:03,340
completely
1072
00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:12,470
some people often say that the grace
1073
00:55:08,950 --> 00:55:15,800
made a great sacrifice of her career in
1074
00:55:12,470 --> 00:55:18,050
becoming the Princess of Monaco I don't
1075
00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:23,450
think she ever felt that way they all
1076
00:55:18,050 --> 00:55:25,100
say she me she made it as she made as
1077
00:55:23,450 --> 00:55:28,700
good a princess as she was a movie
1078
00:55:25,100 --> 00:55:31,640
actress even better you know in fairy
1079
00:55:28,700 --> 00:55:35,390
tales one has to invent the prince and
1080
00:55:31,640 --> 00:55:38,570
the princess but here we happen we had
1081
00:55:35,390 --> 00:55:40,070
them it was in the rugged hills along
1082
00:55:38,570 --> 00:55:41,810
the border with plants that places
1083
00:55:40,070 --> 00:55:43,400
places car went out of control at a
1084
00:55:41,810 --> 00:55:45,140
curve that has been mini accident
1085
00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:47,420
according to the official version
1086
00:55:45,140 --> 00:55:48,890
Princess Grace was driving her 17 year
1087
00:55:47,420 --> 00:55:51,740
old daughter Stephanie from the brakes
1088
00:55:48,890 --> 00:55:53,930
fail a young man Agathe woman her
1089
00:55:51,740 --> 00:55:56,210
feelings about fences race this way
1090
00:55:53,930 --> 00:55:57,830
she was never a problem for us there
1091
00:55:56,210 --> 00:56:00,910
were no potential in throats Campbell
1092
00:55:57,830 --> 00:56:12,170

[Music]
1094
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:20,680
I think she won the heart and the love
1095
00:56:17,080 --> 00:56:23,110
of the Monegasque people because when
1096
00:56:20,680 --> 00:56:25,230
she died I've never seen such true
1097
00:56:23,110 --> 00:56:34,989
sorrow
1098
00:56:25,230 --> 00:56:34,989

00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:11,109
before she was a princess she was an
1103
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:16,230
actress and before that a girl from
1104
00:57:11,109 --> 00:57:16,230
Philadelphia a family girl
1105
00:57:22,650 --> 00:58:26,419
[Music]
1106
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:33,420
you
1107
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:47,250
from any of the family because she said
1108
00:58:43,079 --> 00:58:49,589
if I don't do it myself I don't want to
1109
00:58:47,250 --> 00:58:51,509
do it at all I was very taken with the
1110
00:58:49,589 --> 00:58:55,230
way she looked and the way she walked
1111
00:58:51,509 --> 00:58:56,849
and especially her lovely voice she had
1112
00:58:55,230 --> 00:58:59,430
a beautiful voice
1113
00:58:56,849 --> 00:59:03,630
after the speech was not yet as an
1114
00:58:59,430 --> 00:59:06,960
actress blended with her posture with
1115
00:59:03,630 --> 00:59:10,799
that stately figure that she projected
1116
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:13,440
she studied she really applied herself
1117
00:59:10,799 --> 00:59:14,400
to the characters that that she was
1118
00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:16,920
working on
1119
00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:20,190
I met Grace Kelly early in her career
1120
00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:23,130
back in 1950 when I was directing danger
1121
00:59:20,190 --> 00:59:25,589
for CBS television her mother came up I
1122
00:59:23,130 --> 00:59:28,680
think her brother came up to watch a
1123
00:59:25,589 --> 00:59:31,500
rehearsal and when the rehearsal was
1124
00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:33,210
over I heard a mother say darling your
1125
00:59:31,500 --> 00:59:36,029
speech is affected a little bit can you
1126
00:59:33,210 --> 00:59:38,640
uh can you kind of make it more natural
1127
00:59:36,029 --> 00:59:42,029
and she said mother I'm working on it
1128
00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:42,359
yes city is full of sounds I don't hear
1129
00:59:42,029 --> 00:59:44,670
a thing
1130
00:59:42,359 --> 00:59:47,970
there's no two 'mobile going packed and
1131
00:59:44,670 --> 00:59:50,339
home and a boat in the harbor she played
1132
00:59:47,970 --> 00:59:51,390
the lead in the rich boy for me
1133
00:59:50,339 --> 00:59:54,740
Leviathan
1134
00:59:51,390 --> 00:59:58,500
I'll take him under the pressures of
1135
00:59:54,740 --> 01:00:00,930
live television no retakes no ability to
1136
00:59:58,500 --> 01:00:03,750
go back and change television when they
1137
01:00:00,930 --> 01:00:06,990
had flat fall down on on tea tables and
1138
01:00:03,750 --> 01:00:09,480
everybody was out there improvising she
1139
01:00:06,990 --> 01:00:12,450
performed absolutely brilliantly and
1140
01:00:09,480 --> 01:00:15,900
very quickly became one of the leading
1141
01:00:12,450 --> 01:00:19,680
members of the so-called stock company
1142
01:00:15,900 --> 01:00:25,440
those actors that we would tend to cast
1143
01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:27,660
over and over again I might have a
1144
01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:29,279
snobbish about the way oh no III I'm
1145
01:00:27,660 --> 01:00:32,190
interested I just never thought about it
1146
01:00:29,279 --> 01:00:32,880
that way well people in the Western
1147
01:00:32,190 --> 01:00:35,190
moral
1148
01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:37,680
I'm opening that's because you've had a
1149
01:00:35,190 --> 01:00:39,630
lot to drink you drink a lot don't you
1150
01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:40,980
know what I was watching you from across
1151
01:00:39,630 --> 01:00:44,309
the room you kept filling your glass
1152
01:00:40,980 --> 01:00:46,920
every few maybe you were watching me so
1153
01:00:44,309 --> 01:00:49,769
most of the other girls some in I like
1154
01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:51,730
that they compel attention I didn't even
1155
01:00:49,769 --> 01:00:53,849
see you until just a few minutes ago
1156
01:00:51,730 --> 01:00:57,280
and I couldn't wait to be introduced
1157
01:00:53,849 --> 01:01:00,070
something I like that the first time I
1158
01:00:57,280 --> 01:01:02,380
saw a grace I would be hard-pressed to
1159
01:01:00,070 --> 01:01:05,079
describe her as glamour queen of the
1160
01:01:02,380 --> 01:01:08,020
world during the rehearsal she had a
1161
01:01:05,079 --> 01:01:11,859
pair of glasses on and they were just a
1162
01:01:08,020 --> 01:01:16,630
little bit down her nose and she had a
1163
01:01:11,859 --> 01:01:18,550
terrible cold and she was quite quite
1164
01:01:16,630 --> 01:01:21,070
withdrawn
1165
01:01:18,550 --> 01:01:23,410
I remember we shook hands but it wasn't
1166
01:01:21,070 --> 01:01:25,660
a very hearty handshake it was it was
1167
01:01:23,410 --> 01:01:28,060
the handshake of a little girl and I
1168
01:01:25,660 --> 01:01:30,760
thought oh what a nice schoolteacher
1169
01:01:28,060 --> 01:01:33,579
she's from Philadelphia and that was my
1170
01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:36,490
first impression of grace grace was
1171
01:01:33,579 --> 01:01:40,060
given a small part in the movie 14 hours
1172
01:01:36,490 --> 01:01:43,770
in which she was hardly noticed she
1173
01:01:40,060 --> 01:01:47,910
returned television and to stock theater
1174
01:01:43,770 --> 01:01:50,190
her big break came almost by chance I
1175
01:01:47,910 --> 01:01:54,210
met grace
1176
01:01:50,190 --> 01:01:57,710
in 1953 actually going through the
1177
01:01:54,210 --> 01:02:00,630
receiving line of my wedding to my
1178
01:01:57,710 --> 01:02:03,240
then-husband jkhanner who was her agent
1179
01:02:00,630 --> 01:02:05,490
I was intrigued by her looks in the
1180
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:09,180
photographs that he sent me by her
1181
01:02:05,490 --> 01:02:11,790
background and probably more by the fact
1182
01:02:09,180 --> 01:02:14,460
that she absolutely would not accept the
1183
01:02:11,790 --> 01:02:18,540
long term studio contract it was a young
1184
01:02:14,460 --> 01:02:21,900
agent I was a young producer and he had
1185
01:02:18,540 --> 01:02:23,610
brought to me Marlon Brando then he sent
1186
01:02:21,900 --> 01:02:26,100
me a photograph of Grace Kelly at the
1187
01:02:23,610 --> 01:02:29,730
time we were casting high noon now I
1188
01:02:26,100 --> 01:02:32,100
wanted an unknown girl I asked to see
1189
01:02:29,730 --> 01:02:35,490
her she came in from Denver for an
1190
01:02:32,100 --> 01:02:38,700
interview for an interview for a part in
1191
01:02:35,490 --> 01:02:40,800
a Western with white gloves no less that
1192
01:02:38,700 --> 01:02:43,440
goes way back when we were children my
1193
01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:47,160
mother insisted every time we went into
1194
01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:49,380
town you wore hat and gloves that not
1195
01:02:47,160 --> 01:02:52,140
only my mother we were brought up as in
1196
01:02:49,380 --> 01:02:54,960
a convent and the nuns insisted that you
1197
01:02:52,140 --> 01:02:57,859
wore white gloves on special occasions I
1198
01:02:54,960 --> 01:03:01,470
went overboard because she had that
1199
01:02:57,859 --> 01:03:03,660
ladylike quality that kind of dignity
1200
01:03:01,470 --> 01:03:06,390
which was in contrast to the Western
1201
01:03:03,660 --> 01:03:08,609
scene which works so well these are the
1202
01:03:06,390 --> 01:03:10,130
Cooper's your lawful wedded husband to
1203
01:03:08,609 --> 01:03:12,540
have and to hold from this day forward
1204
01:03:10,130 --> 01:03:14,790
the reason I think she was miscast is
1205
01:03:12,540 --> 01:03:16,470
that Cooper was much older than Grace
1206
01:03:14,790 --> 01:03:20,430
Kelly he was too old for Kelly actually
1207
01:03:16,470 --> 01:03:23,160
in the role she didn't believe that she
1208
01:03:20,430 --> 01:03:23,910
did well in the film I didn't think so
1209
01:03:23,160 --> 01:03:25,950
either
1210
01:03:23,910 --> 01:03:28,140
there was a girl in the film named Katey
1211
01:03:25,950 --> 01:03:30,780
hirato who played a Mexican gal in the
1212
01:03:28,140 --> 01:03:33,869
town kadhi Hirata was dynamic and
1213
01:03:30,780 --> 01:03:36,869
overpowering and yet Kelly wasn't
1214
01:03:33,869 --> 01:03:41,520
swallowed even in her miscast because
1215
01:03:36,869 --> 01:03:42,960
this ladylike thing came through they
1216
01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:44,940
were on the right side but that didn't
1217
01:03:42,960 --> 01:03:50,140
help them any when the shooting started
1218
01:03:44,940 --> 01:03:54,310
my brother was 19 I watched for Grace
1219
01:03:50,140 --> 01:03:56,980
Kelly was her first big break and for me
1220
01:03:54,310 --> 01:04:00,340
was my first American picture making
1221
01:03:56,980 --> 01:04:03,730
here in Hollywood I am was two years old
1222
01:04:00,340 --> 01:04:06,430
she was I have seven years making
1223
01:04:03,730 --> 01:04:13,500
pictures in Mexico and there was
1224
01:04:06,430 --> 01:04:13,500
something so different between Grayson
1225
01:04:16,750 --> 01:04:20,599
[Music]
1226
01:04:21,680 --> 01:04:27,390
it was born into a prosperous
1227
01:04:23,930 --> 01:04:30,030
Philadelphia family though she was a shy
1228
01:04:27,390 --> 01:04:33,150
child she would live her life in the
1229
01:04:30,030 --> 01:04:35,369
public eye don't try to be a hero you
1230
01:04:33,150 --> 01:04:37,829
don't have to be here enough for me I'm
1231
01:04:35,369 --> 01:04:42,050
not trying to be by the age of 23 her
1232
01:04:37,829 --> 01:04:42,050
beauty and talent took her to Hollywood
1233
01:04:43,700 --> 01:04:49,020
he made 11 films in three and a half
1234
01:04:46,650 --> 01:04:52,940
years and became one of the most
1235
01:04:49,020 --> 01:04:52,940
sought-after stars of her time
1236
01:04:53,460 --> 01:04:59,400
she worked with Hollywood's most
1237
01:04:54,990 --> 01:05:02,480
important directors Wayne opposite its
1238
01:04:59,400 --> 01:05:02,480
top leading man
1239
01:05:07,530 --> 01:05:14,440
there's nothing quite so mysterious and
1240
01:05:10,420 --> 01:05:18,300
silent as a dark Theater then at 26 she
1241
01:05:14,440 --> 01:05:18,300
turned her back on make-believe
1242
01:05:19,079 --> 01:05:24,799
but make-believe came true in a
1243
01:05:21,869 --> 01:05:29,549
fairytale shared by the entire world
1244
01:05:24,799 --> 01:05:34,279
her name was Grace Kelly it became her
1245
01:05:29,549 --> 01:05:34,279
serene Highness Princess Grace of Monaco
1246
01:05:43,220 --> 01:05:49,040
I don't think grace really believed that
1247
01:05:47,329 --> 01:05:52,310
she was going to give up acting when she
1248
01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:56,240
became Princess Grace of Monaco I think
1249
01:05:52,310 --> 01:05:57,710
that the reality of that probably struck
1250
01:05:56,240 --> 01:05:59,750
her someplace in the middle of the
1251
01:05:57,710 --> 01:06:03,740
Mediterranean after the honeymoon began
1252
01:05:59,750 --> 01:06:04,640
she took everything so much in her
1253
01:06:03,740 --> 01:06:09,020
stride
1254
01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:12,500
nothing nothing seemed to to be too much
1255
01:06:09,020 --> 01:06:17,079
for a very named grace could not have
1256
01:06:12,500 --> 01:06:20,589
been more fitting and even a death
1257
01:06:17,079 --> 01:06:26,840
tragic early death
1258
01:06:20,589 --> 01:06:29,500
Mayda enter even more into legend

Monaco a principality of less than 500
1261
01:06:34,069 --> 01:06:40,010
acres on the French Riviera for
1262
01:06:37,730 --> 01:06:42,650

when she was young was very shy and a
1309
01:09:00,740 --> 01:09:05,720
momma's baby there are many times that
1310
01:09:03,320 --> 01:09:07,670
we have pictures taken that mother had
1311
01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:10,250
to lean back away from the camera so
1312
01:09:07,670 --> 01:09:13,550
grace would not cry to be taken away
1313
01:09:10,250 --> 01:09:15,680
from her mother she was very sweet and
1314
01:09:13,550 --> 01:09:19,550
soft and loved to be hope held and
1315
01:09:15,680 --> 01:09:21,020
cuddled and kissed and loved I on the

01:09:25,370 --> 01:09:31,430
want to do our own thing we always had a
1320
01:09:29,030 --> 01:09:33,890
place at the shore and when we were
1321
01:09:31,430 --> 01:09:36,260
young and at that time I think we had
1322
01:09:33,890 --> 01:09:38,720
our best times together we just had a
1323
01:09:36,260 --> 01:09:41,780
marvelous time and grace all her life
1324
01:09:38,720 --> 01:09:44,960
loved to be by the ocean and the sea
1325
01:09:41,780 --> 01:09:47,270
9:00 we could not really explain that we
1326
01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:51,500
could not be very close but I could see
1327
01:09:47,270 --> 01:09:53,180
a girl with a lot of dignity and a lot
1328
01:09:51,500 --> 01:09:57,680
of character because she wants to be
1329
01:09:53,180 --> 01:09:58,880
somebody in movies and she were very
1330
01:09:57,680 --> 01:10:03,200
hard in that picture
1331
01:09:58,880 --> 01:10:05,780
she looked weak between very tiny but
1332
01:10:03,200 --> 01:10:08,540
she was very strong person I really been
1333
01:10:05,780 --> 01:10:11,900
she was one of the strongest movie star
1334
01:10:08,540 --> 01:10:16,210
I work with she knew what what you want
1335
01:10:11,900 --> 01:10:16,210
and she did it
1336
01:10:18,720 --> 01:10:25,020
Gary Cooper went on to win an Academy
1337
01:10:21,030 --> 01:10:27,450
Award for best actor of 1952 but there
1338
01:10:25,020 --> 01:10:29,460
were no laurels for grace and she
1339
01:10:27,450 --> 01:10:33,090
promptly headed back to New York for
1340
01:10:29,460 --> 01:10:35,880
more study she was a Kelly and she had
1341
01:10:33,090 --> 01:10:38,010
to do better we've all probably read
1342
01:10:35,880 --> 01:10:40,140
that thing where she says that you can
1343
01:10:38,010 --> 01:10:42,540
see everything and in Gary Cooper's eyes
1344
01:10:40,140 --> 01:10:44,250
but that her eyes were flat and dull and
1345
01:10:42,540 --> 01:10:45,900
dead and that she didn't like them she
1346
01:10:44,250 --> 01:10:47,970
couldn't tell what the character was
1347
01:10:45,900 --> 01:10:50,220
feeling she began to work harder on
1348
01:10:47,970 --> 01:10:52,430
concentrating on her objective in other
1349
01:10:50,220 --> 01:10:56,040
words that would have that would
1350
01:10:52,430 --> 01:10:58,500
eventually be the cure for the way she
1351
01:10:56,040 --> 01:11:01,020
attacked her characters to make them
1352
01:10:58,500 --> 01:11:03,660
come alive to make her eyeball shine
1353
01:11:01,020 --> 01:11:08,220
with meaning she always had this image
1354
01:11:03,660 --> 01:11:10,230
in her image of being oh no fashioned
1355
01:11:08,220 --> 01:11:13,050
actress actress with a kind of glamour
1356
01:11:10,230 --> 01:11:15,120
that you have on Broadway grace was
1357
01:11:13,050 --> 01:11:17,960
eager for a lead role in a New York
1358
01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:22,080
production of Cyrano de Bergerac I
1359
01:11:17,960 --> 01:11:24,390
wanted to have grace as Roxanne I wanted
1360
01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:27,390
her not because of her great acting
1361
01:11:24,390 --> 01:11:30,000
ability but because of that discipline
1362
01:11:27,390 --> 01:11:33,030
that she appeared to have unfortunately
1363
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:35,670
she never did realize that every part
1364
01:11:33,030 --> 01:11:39,270
she went up for on Broadway with the
1365
01:11:35,670 --> 01:11:41,580
exception of the father she lost and
1366
01:11:39,270 --> 01:11:43,770
when she didn't get it there were
1367
01:11:41,580 --> 01:11:45,690
mentions of it in the columns and so
1368
01:11:43,770 --> 01:11:50,190
forth and so on she was really very very
1369
01:11:45,690 --> 01:11:53,700
distressed and she picked herself up and
1370
01:11:50,190 --> 01:11:55,440
went on Mogambo was a picture that grace
1371
01:11:53,700 --> 01:12:00,660
apparently wanted to do very badly
1372
01:11:55,440 --> 01:12:04,290
because she was willing to sign a
1373
01:12:00,660 --> 01:12:06,750
long-term contract with MGM to do the
1374
01:12:04,290 --> 01:12:09,900
picture I bet all you're going to do for
1375
01:12:06,750 --> 01:12:11,820
him what do you expect me to do business
1376
01:12:09,900 --> 01:12:12,440
nordley crawl in bed with him and hold
1377
01:12:11,820 --> 01:12:16,320
his hand
1378
01:12:12,440 --> 01:12:19,740
the thought of playing opposite of star
1379
01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:24,690
like Clark Gable being directed by John
1380
01:12:19,740 --> 01:12:26,940
Ford a fellow Irishman and I I also
1381
01:12:24,690 --> 01:12:28,659
think she was intrigued with the idea of
1382
01:12:26,940 --> 01:12:31,840
going to Africa
1383
01:12:28,659 --> 01:12:33,670
on location for Mogambo Clark Gable
1384
01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:37,420
described an incident to Rupert Allan
1385
01:12:33,670 --> 01:12:40,540
then look magazine correspondent grace
1386
01:12:37,420 --> 01:12:42,400
was alone and was discovered by cable
1387
01:12:40,540 --> 01:12:44,500
she turned to him she he saw that she
1388
01:12:42,400 --> 01:12:47,620
was crying and he said well are you
1389
01:12:44,500 --> 01:12:49,780
crying grace she says so beautiful I'm
1390
01:12:47,620 --> 01:12:52,900
reading the snows of Kilimanjaro by
1391
01:12:49,780 --> 01:12:56,409
Hemingway and I looked up and I was just
1392
01:12:52,900 --> 01:12:58,179
reading about this frozen leopard I
1393
01:12:56,409 --> 01:12:59,889
think they found they having the snows
1394
01:12:58,179 --> 01:13:02,159
of this high mountain highest mountain
1395
01:12:59,889 --> 01:13:04,210
in Africa and I looked up for my book
1396
01:13:02,159 --> 01:13:07,320
thinking about what a beautiful picture
1397
01:13:04,210 --> 01:13:10,540
it was inside anyway and I saw a lion
1398
01:13:07,320 --> 01:13:11,500
walking along with the seashore it was
1399
01:13:10,540 --> 01:13:15,460
just too beautiful
1400
01:13:11,500 --> 01:13:18,280
she gave human personalities too to her
1401
01:13:15,460 --> 01:13:20,620
animals very often she gave animal
1402
01:13:18,280 --> 01:13:22,540
personalities to humans she used to call
1403
01:13:20,620 --> 01:13:25,600
some of her close friends bird everyone
1404
01:13:22,540 --> 01:13:27,790
she called Rita bird a bird this bird
1405
01:13:25,600 --> 01:13:31,380
that bird I mean people and animals
1406
01:13:27,790 --> 01:13:31,380
became interchangeable with grace
1407
01:13:33,900 --> 01:13:38,770
Grace's role in Mogambo earned her an
1408
01:13:36,940 --> 01:13:45,570
Academy Award nomination as Best

the most of it they blame us when you

come along with that look in your eye
1415
01:13:59,429 --> 01:14:07,449
some critics called her a star in the

1417
01:14:07,449 --> 01:14:10,770

George who lived in Southern California
1425
01:14:26,310 --> 01:14:32,140

George so much that the two of them
1429
01:14:38,020 --> 01:14:42,100
would talk I would sit in the backseat

and maybe take a little nap but the two
1431
01:14:42,100 --> 01:14:49,690

1433
01:14:49,690 --> 01:14:53,860

01:14:53,860 --> 01:14:57,850
want to go to their dinner parties and

01:14:55,360 --> 01:15:00,040
be seated next to all the a people that

1443
01:15:16,540 --> 01:15:22,480
usually a hamburger which was Gracie's
1444
01:15:18,910 --> 01:15:24,970
favorite food and then went to bed

cold she was never icy to anybody on the

say about Grace Kelly with his usual wit

01:16:22,470 --> 01:16:26,880
wanted her to answer the phone by
1462
01:16:24,210 --> 01:16:29,220
putting on her bathrobe and she said
1463
01:16:26,880 --> 01:16:32,160
there was no reason for her to add to
1464
01:16:29,220 --> 01:16:34,200
put a bathrobe on just to answer a
1465
01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:36,330
telephone with no one else in the house
1466
01:16:34,200 --> 01:16:37,380
but her and he says what would you wear
1467
01:16:36,330 --> 01:16:40,680
he said I read a nightgown
1468
01:16:37,380 --> 01:16:43,250
she so he said all right and it worked
1469
01:16:40,680 --> 01:16:46,409
out very well hello
1470
01:16:43,250 --> 01:16:46,409
[Music]
1471
01:16:56,230 --> 01:17:06,320
[Music]
1472
01:16:59,590 --> 01:17:11,200
she seemed to know the movements before
1473
01:17:06,320 --> 01:17:11,200
Hitchcock had anything to say about it
1474
01:17:11,740 --> 01:17:20,330
and I think I think Hitchcock liked that
1475
01:17:15,920 --> 01:17:21,950
I think everybody liked it in the
1476
01:17:20,330 --> 01:17:25,820
picture rear window
1477
01:17:21,950 --> 01:17:29,930
Hitchcock said now to grace now you're
1478
01:17:25,820 --> 01:17:33,920
going to have to go across and go get
1479
01:17:29,930 --> 01:17:35,660
into the room and grace with with
1480
01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:38,990
without any direction
1481
01:17:35,660 --> 01:17:44,290
she just went over climbed up the fire
1482
01:17:38,990 --> 01:17:48,140
escape climbed in one of the windows and
1483
01:17:44,290 --> 01:17:51,920
sneaked into the door and then looked
1484
01:17:48,140 --> 01:17:55,810
over across the across the way to
1485
01:17:51,920 --> 01:18:01,880
Hitchcock and said is that what you mean
1486
01:17:55,810 --> 01:18:05,660
well everybody everybody applauded and
1487
01:18:01,880 --> 01:18:09,110
she deserved it because this was exactly
1488
01:18:05,660 --> 01:18:12,470
what Albert Hitchcock wanted what grace
1489
01:18:09,110 --> 01:18:17,300
brought as an actress was grace brought
1490
01:18:12,470 --> 01:18:20,750
the actual young woman of the 50s into a
1491
01:18:17,300 --> 01:18:22,400
vision of glamour was a very proper era
1492
01:18:20,750 --> 01:18:23,990
in a way very Premera
1493
01:18:22,400 --> 01:18:26,930
underneath that of course there was
1494
01:18:23,990 --> 01:18:32,360
always the sense of flirtatiousness of
1495
01:18:26,930 --> 01:18:35,870
young women and the sense of fun grace
1496
01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:39,100
had truly arrived she appeared on the
1497
01:18:35,870 --> 01:18:41,920
covers of national magazines
1498
01:18:39,100 --> 01:18:45,130
but success meant more time we spent in
1499
01:18:41,920 --> 01:18:48,040
Hollywood she was really a family person
1500
01:18:45,130 --> 01:18:50,260
she doesn't like to be alone I remember
1501
01:18:48,040 --> 01:18:53,470
when she first went to California to
1502
01:18:50,260 --> 01:18:55,390
make films she lived alone and suddenly
1503
01:18:53,470 --> 01:18:58,120
she asked to eat again to come and live
1504
01:18:55,390 --> 01:18:59,290
with her and grace let me in and there
1505
01:18:58,120 --> 01:19:01,540
she was she was wearing the same
1506
01:18:59,290 --> 01:19:04,990
Philadelphia skirt same sensible shoes
1507
01:19:01,540 --> 01:19:06,580
the same tied back hair except now she
1508
01:19:04,990 --> 01:19:12,580
was becoming a very valuable property
1509
01:19:06,580 --> 01:19:16,360
and I had no idea that her background
1510
01:19:12,580 --> 01:19:23,890
was one of opulence I thought of her as
1511
01:19:16,360 --> 01:19:26,740
a co-worker an actress then out of the
1512
01:19:23,890 --> 01:19:29,230
clear blue sky and very directly openly
1513
01:19:26,740 --> 01:19:32,200
and warmly she said would you like to
1514
01:19:29,230 --> 01:19:34,030
share the flat how would that fit in
1515
01:19:32,200 --> 01:19:35,620
with your schedule I said oh I have to
1516
01:19:34,030 --> 01:19:37,420
get up at five in the morning said I
1517
01:19:35,620 --> 01:19:39,610
have to get up at five - I said but look
1518
01:19:37,420 --> 01:19:41,410
good sleep at 9:00 said terrific that's
1519
01:19:39,610 --> 01:19:43,750
it I think the thing that most people
1520
01:19:41,410 --> 01:19:45,490
forget is that when all of this was
1521
01:19:43,750 --> 01:19:47,320
happening to grace this extraordinary
1522
01:19:45,490 --> 01:19:51,310
excitement about her career being
1523
01:19:47,320 --> 01:19:53,980
generated and and he rolls with the
1524
01:19:51,310 --> 01:19:57,160
world's most famous leading man and the
1525
01:19:53,980 --> 01:19:59,680
world's most respected directors she was
1526
01:19:57,160 --> 01:20:01,180
just a girl in her early 20s one time in
1527
01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:02,560
Hollywood grace and I were invited to
1528
01:20:01,180 --> 01:20:05,140
what turned out to be a rather sticky
1529
01:20:02,560 --> 01:20:06,820
dinner party with two bachelors we had
1530
01:20:05,140 --> 01:20:08,620
thought it was going to be this grand
1531
01:20:06,820 --> 01:20:09,910
party with an awful lot of people and
1532
01:20:08,620 --> 01:20:13,210
there we were and the lights were
1533
01:20:09,910 --> 01:20:16,000
getting lower and the wine was getting
1534
01:20:13,210 --> 01:20:20,680
heavier and I was getting very nervous
1535
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:22,630
and I nudged grace under the table Grace
1536
01:20:20,680 --> 01:20:24,850
had her glasses on I think that was her
1537
01:20:22,630 --> 01:20:27,310
protection mine was just a sort of
1538
01:20:24,850 --> 01:20:29,260
chatter nervously and say let's go let's
1539
01:20:27,310 --> 01:20:31,330
go grace and she whispered back that's
1540
01:20:29,260 --> 01:20:34,660
right until after dessert it might be
1541
01:20:31,330 --> 01:20:36,460
good the bridges at toko-ri gave grace
1542
01:20:34,660 --> 01:20:38,260
the opportunity to play opposite an
1543
01:20:36,460 --> 01:20:42,070
actor she admired
1544
01:20:38,260 --> 01:20:46,900
William Holden Harry you've got to tell
1545
01:20:42,070 --> 01:20:49,930
me about the speeches Grace and all the
1546
01:20:46,900 --> 01:20:51,580
family were a competitive family I think
1547
01:20:49,930 --> 01:20:54,700
we got that I know we got that from our
1548
01:20:51,580 --> 01:21:00,910
mother and my father they instilled into
1549
01:20:54,700 --> 01:21:05,560
a deep sense of competition and the love
1550
01:21:00,910 --> 01:21:09,600
of sports the thrill of winning that
1551
01:21:05,560 --> 01:21:12,370
also taught us how to lose gracefully
1552
01:21:09,600 --> 01:21:14,770
but the Kelley's didn't intend to lose
1553
01:21:12,370 --> 01:21:19,390
and there never was a better drill
1554
01:21:14,770 --> 01:21:22,360
master than Jack Kelly it was fun family
1555
01:21:19,390 --> 01:21:28,210
fun and it left a special kind of
1556
01:21:22,360 --> 01:21:31,150
determination the determination didn't
1557
01:21:28,210 --> 01:21:34,390
manifest itself in grace as much in the
1558
01:21:31,150 --> 01:21:37,900
sporting field a her determination sort
1559
01:21:34,390 --> 01:21:42,420
of took another turn she loved to sit by
1560
01:21:37,900 --> 01:21:45,220
the hours and pretend and create
1561
01:21:42,420 --> 01:21:47,530
situations and say Lizzie you do this
1562
01:21:45,220 --> 01:21:49,990
and I'll be this and I'll be the mother
1563
01:21:47,530 --> 01:21:51,490
and you be the baby and of course I gave
1564
01:21:49,990 --> 01:21:53,929
her a hard time a lot of times because I
1565
01:21:51,490 --> 01:21:56,690
did not want to play her game
1566
01:21:53,929 --> 01:22:00,010
for grace growing up well Fame and
1567
01:21:56,690 --> 01:22:00,010
winter sport in Lake Placid
1568
01:22:00,670 --> 01:22:05,560
it also meant the best private schools
1569
01:22:07,790 --> 01:22:13,200
working for causes you believed in
1570
01:22:10,230 --> 01:22:14,120
started young modeling it society
1571
01:22:13,200 --> 01:22:16,040
fashion benefits
1572
01:22:14,120 --> 01:22:18,350
[Music]
1573
01:22:16,040 --> 01:22:23,240
but for grace these shows meant more
1574
01:22:18,350 --> 01:22:25,760
than fundraising they were theater she
1575
01:22:23,240 --> 01:22:28,910
got most of her love from the theater
1576
01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:31,700
for my uncle George he was a playwright
1577
01:22:28,910 --> 01:22:34,670
and he directed plays very gracious
1578
01:22:31,700 --> 01:22:38,240
highly educated person well-read and
1579
01:22:34,670 --> 01:22:41,570
very witty and she just was fascinated
1580
01:22:38,240 --> 01:22:45,050
with all the tales of the stage and the
1581
01:22:41,570 --> 01:22:48,650
theater her uncle George Kelly was was a
1582
01:22:45,050 --> 01:22:53,000
great example to her he he was sensitive
1583
01:22:48,650 --> 01:22:54,890
and kind and talented and I think of all
1584
01:22:53,000 --> 01:22:57,500
the men she ever knew rather than going
1585
01:22:54,890 --> 01:23:00,670
for the athletic macho type I think her
1586
01:22:57,500 --> 01:23:04,330
her ideal man was was her uncle George
1587
01:23:00,670 --> 01:23:08,420
my recollections is her father John B
1588
01:23:04,330 --> 01:23:11,450
Jack Kelly were of an enormous man with
1589
01:23:08,420 --> 01:23:13,690
tremendous amount of gusto everything up
1590
01:23:11,450 --> 01:23:17,320
front everything in the open move ahead
1591
01:23:13,690 --> 01:23:22,490
nice man but not a tremendous amount of
1592
01:23:17,320 --> 01:23:24,590
internal sensitivity her father believed
1593
01:23:22,490 --> 01:23:26,690
absolutely the Peggy the older sister
1594
01:23:24,590 --> 01:23:30,980
was going to be make the big star of the
1595
01:23:26,690 --> 01:23:32,930
family and succeed and you never paid
1596
01:23:30,980 --> 01:23:36,380
any attention to race it was the middle
1597
01:23:32,930 --> 01:23:39,920
of the families for children and she was
1598
01:23:36,380 --> 01:23:43,010
quiet observant of the others and adored
1599
01:23:39,920 --> 01:23:47,330
her older brother too also Kel zombie
1600
01:23:43,010 --> 01:23:49,720
Kelly jr. and also analytic star great
1601
01:23:47,330 --> 01:23:53,150
racers the father thought he's great but
1602
01:23:49,720 --> 01:23:54,710
Gracie just accepted and I don't think
1603
01:23:53,150 --> 01:23:58,250
he understood her at all
1604
01:23:54,710 --> 01:24:02,030
but she adored him and yet one wonders
1605
01:23:58,250 --> 01:24:03,680
when you don't get from a parent of what
1606
01:24:02,030 --> 01:24:05,870
it is perhaps you need if that isn't
1607
01:24:03,680 --> 01:24:09,680
what creates a great deal of the drive
1608
01:24:05,870 --> 01:24:12,680
in you to go out and become the fullest
1609
01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:15,410
part of yourself she decided to go to
1610
01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:20,390
New York and my mother and father
1611
01:24:15,410 --> 01:24:24,950
especially surprised because she was a
1612
01:24:20,390 --> 01:24:27,380
shy and retiring girl my mother and
1613
01:24:24,950 --> 01:24:28,770
father were a little leery of the New
1614
01:24:27,380 --> 01:24:31,680
York and on her own
1615
01:24:28,770 --> 01:24:34,980
but mother said if Jack it's not as if
1616
01:24:31,680 --> 01:24:38,850
she's going to Hollywood or to
1617
01:24:34,980 --> 01:24:40,680
California Grace knew that her father
1618
01:24:38,850 --> 01:24:41,250
didn't think very much of an acting
1619
01:24:40,680 --> 01:24:43,050
career
1620
01:24:41,250 --> 01:24:44,310
they allowed her to go to get it out of
1621
01:24:43,050 --> 01:24:47,040
her system let her go
1622
01:24:44,310 --> 01:24:49,140
it won't mount to anything Grace was
1623
01:24:47,040 --> 01:24:51,750
accepted into the American Academy of
1624
01:24:49,140 --> 01:24:53,040

old she I support herself by modeling

got her portfolio and little by little
1630
01:25:10,290 --> 01:25:15,360
she started getting job so that she
1631
01:25:13,770 --> 01:25:17,460
didn't have to act for the favor of
1632
01:25:15,360 --> 01:25:21,150
being supported in her efforts so that
1633
01:25:17,460 --> 01:25:25,170
she could justify her own existence by
1634
01:25:21,150 --> 01:25:27,829
