Is Your Favorite Movie Historically Accurate?
Grace of Monaco (2014)
Grace Kelly definitely deserved more than 2014’s Grace of Monaco. While the actress-turned-Royal had a pretty interesting life, the movie adaptation didn’t make the effort to stick to her real story!
The ‘crisis’ between her and Charles de Gaulle was nothing about a blockade in Monaco, it was actually about taxes – not exactly very Hollywood! Also, there was never a passionate speech about the country: that was added for dramatic effect.
