Grace of Monaco (2014)
Directed by Olivier
Dahan this film based on real events stars Nicole Kidman, Tim Roth,
Frank Langella and Derek Jacobi. In 1962 former film star Grace Kelly
struggles to live with her role as princess to a country in crisis.
Nothing here is much
good from a suspect, overly simplistic script to a complete
re-writing of history. The tale of a Hollywood actress attempting to
fit in with the politics of European aristocracy provides a decent
culture clash basis for a film but this film is on a trip to fantasy
land. At times it becomes hard to find any empathy with a story that
is essentially a monarchy dictatorship trying to profit off a bunch
of tax dodgers.
1/5
