It's a movie you've been looking forward to as soon as you know it's going to be released, after all, Princess Grace Kelly of Monaco is a real person, and that fairy tale is famous all over the world. It's a pity that when I knew that this was not a biopic, but a lot of fictional plots, I couldn't find the meaning in an instant. If it was made up of the life of a famous global figure, under the banner of "purely fictional", then Why choose a very specific historical figure?
The film tells the story of Hollywood star Grace Kelly who became an Oscar-winning actress in 1956 and married Prince Rainier III of Monaco. In 1962, there was a six-month political crisis between Monaco and France. Grace Kelly, Princess of Monaco, was torn between returning to Hollywood and saving the country, and finally made a decision to bid farewell to the screen. The movie is under the responsibility of the Monaco royal family. Indeed, the princess in the movie no longer has the smile on her face when she was an actor. She and her husband do not seem to be in love. She is depressed, sad, lonely, and helpless. Not happy in Monaco, even a hypothetical divorce. This left the audience with the impression of a happy haloed queen who became an unhappy, statusless princess of Monaco. When she became an Oscar winner and a successful Hollywood actor, everyone would praise her, but when she became a princess and then went back to filming, everyone felt that the role of an actor was not good, and even her husband would say "I didn't force her to act." You are going to marry me" and "You were originally just an actor", how sad for the princess. Even if it is true love, he must always have some sense of superiority of the king. The princess can only work hard to find her own sense of existence and value. In the play, she has so easily resolved the political crisis that made the men devastated. People find it uncomfortable to praise women and degrade men.
Let’s talk about the biggest gimmick, that is, Nicole Kidman, who plays the Princess of Monaco. To be honest, I don’t think they are similar. It’s not the difference in appearance, but the image style of people is different. The temperament and aura are also different. Nicole's outline is stiff and her eyebrows are thin and raised high. The sharpness and sharpness give people a very uncomfortable feeling. This is something that gentle Grace does not have. It feels like two completely different people. But in the film, it does not give people a kind of beauty enjoyment. The clothing and demeanor in the long shot are all good, but when Nicole's face is exposed in front of the camera, it is difficult to connect with Grace. Not that Nicole isn't beautiful, but definitely not Grace's type of beauty.
Monaco, the second smallest country in the world, is only larger than the Vatican. But this country is an uncompromising fairy tale kingdom. Princess Grace is a unique national business card in the history of Monaco, and it is also the most intense fairy tale for the European royal family. As she once said: My life is portrayed as a fairy tale because it is indeed a fairy tale. In my opinion, it was not Monaco that made her, but that she made Monaco the country's attention.
