Picture version: https://www.toutiao.com/i6492969824220627470/ Five years after the collaboration with Ingrid Bergman (Ingrid Bergman), the last work "Under Capricorn" (1949, also translated "The Lady of the Calamity"), Hitchcock passed a volume that was abandoned in 1950. The advertising audition found his perfect heroine, Grace Kelly. The life of Kelly's legend is an endless topic for movie fans. In addition to the appearance and height that meet Hitchcock's hard standards, Kelly's calm and grace exudes even more so that Hitchcock has no intention of caring. Edith Head, a well-known costume designer who has served many films for Hitchcock, once said: "Even the perfect star on the screen has something to hide. Everyone is, except for Lace." Hitchcock's evaluation of her is: gentle and elegant, but full of great explosive power, just like the Olympia iceberg that no one has touched, there is endless fire and heat under the mountain. Kelly’s first Hitchcock film was "Dial M for Murder" (1954). At that time, she was just a little-known actor and paid only 1. 40,000 dollars. The whole movie is an excellent cost-saving work, with clever layout and rigorous logic, but Hitchcock doesn’t like it very much. He once told François Truffaut that this movie can be skipped. Because there is nothing to say. Perhaps the greatest significance of "Telephone Murder" to Hitchcock is to find the heroine in his dream. Hitchcock prefers female images with glamorous appearances and fiery hearts throughout his life. Ingrid Bergman and Grace Kelly are both of this type. Hitchcock said Kelly was "a blonde girl with a cold appearance, but lustful in her heart." It is difficult for the audience to associate the noble and elegant Kelly with "flaming lust", but it is an appropriate description of Kelly in life. It is said that Kelly has socialized with several men at the same time, and almost all slept with the male actors who acted in the opposing scenes. Except for James Stewart and Cary Grant. Hitchcock was very excited when he learned of Kelly's "merry history": "Amazing Grace! She sleeps with everyone!" One incident when he first came into contact with Kelly has always been something Hitchcock never forgets. Once he introduced himself to visitors on the set: "Call me Hitchcock, don’t use Kirk."-Hitchcock hates his own name, and has repeatedly said that it’s better to put in the name " "Cock" (male genitalia) was removed, and he claimed and liked others to call him "Hitch" all his life. Many people on the set laughed. Hitchcock noticed that Kelly was beside him, so he prepared to apologize, but Kelly stopped him: "Don’t worry, I went to a Catholic girls’ school. I was already 13 years old. I've heard everything." Many years later, Hitchcock recalled Kelly. He said: "Grace Kelly has a great sense of humor, but it's just a little bit yellow." Hitchcock's love for Kelly is projected into the work. , Which makes the films of the "Kelly Period" unconventional, unlike Joan Fontaine (Joan Fontaine) who was tortured by fantasy in "Butterfly Dream" (Rebecca, 1940), and was dominated by men in "Beauty" (Notorious, 1946) Ingrid Bowman, or "The Birds" (The Birds, Tippi Hedren (Tippi Hedren), who was frightened and tortured in 1963), Grace in Hitchcock's lens is so calm and elegant, witty and decisive, courageous in pursuing men and always able to meet her expectations. After cooperating with "Telephone Murder", Hitchcock began to think of ways to tailor a role for Kelly, using film to infinitely magnify her fascination. Although the protagonist of "Rear Window" (1954) is James Stewart, Kelly is the promoter and resolver of the incident. Watching "Rear Window", you can feel Hitchcock's love for Kelly. In the scene where Kelly played, the close-up of Kelly under the camera occupies the center of the screen, and the beauty was breathtaking. She leaned down and approached the camera and gave the actor in the wheelchair a deep kiss. On the screen, the faces of the two men occupies half of each other. Through the language of the lens, Kelly's important status and personality are emphasized-she is strong and aggressive, and actively pursues this man who does not want to marry her. There is a scene behind Kelly sitting on Stewart and the two kissing each other. Kelly asked him: "What can a girl do to make you tempted?" "Pay attention to me... I want your heart, I want everything from you ." They kissed intermittently for a minute and a half. There was another scene behind, also talking while kissing, and the shot lasted 46 seconds. In the 1940s, Hitchcock replaced himself with Gary Grant and had close contact with his beloved Bergman on the screen. Now that Hitchcock is in his 50s, his mentality has been perfectly transformed from fantasy to broken decadence, so his stand-in on the screen has become a man with broken legs without the strength of a chicken. "Rear Window" is still being filmed, and Hitchcock is already creating "To Catch a Thief" for Kelly (To Catch a Thief, 1955) again. This is a naive and humorous film. The witty Kelly once again won love while solving the mystery and became the biggest winner in the film. The "Clothing Show" is not lost to "Rear Window", and the pink sleeveless suit sets off Kelly's elegance and sweetness unparalleled. Kelly in the film is more perfect, beautiful, rich, noble, bold and unrestrained than in "Rear Window". When "Catch a Thief" was released, Hitchcock said proudly: "The kiss in the corridor is like she unzipped his pants, fireworks are orgasms, and Grace's role is burning. The ice.” However, taking Kelly to Monaco to film has become Hitchcock’s last regret in his life. Kelly and the Prince of Monaco fell in love and soon married into the royal family. When filming "The Birds" in 1963, Kelly was the first choice for the heroine, but she was always opposed by the people of Monaco, so she gave up and had to use Tibi Headley, who was still shooting an advertisement at the time. The following year, he was preparing to make "Marnie" (Marnie, 1964). Hitchcock once again invited Kelly, but the people of Monaco could not allow the princess to play a thief. Hitchcock’s previous film was also shot by Renee. The prince is forbidden to release. The disappointment and unwillingness to lose the perfect muse have more or less reactions in Hitchcock's later works. When filming "The Man Who Knew Too Much" (1956), Kelly was still in Hollywood. The heroines of the next three works-"Vertigo" (1958), "North by Northwest" (North by Northwest, 1959), and "Psycho" (1960)-are Kelly-like The roles are very different. Although they are all glamorous blondes, clever and scheming, their schemes all ended in failure, or were conquered by men, or died. When filming "The Birds", Hitchcock deliberately made Tibby Headley the next Grace, but he was too possessive of the celebrity he had cultivated. Heidi was towards Hitchcock. His feelings have also changed from gratitude to hatred. This tortured relationship eventually fell apart. Too Much, 1956), Kelly was still in Hollywood.
