Grace is such a beauty! Not just from looks, but just from here mere presence on screen. Acting ability, charm, grace (no kidding), kindness, musical ability, etc.
"Oh, but I'm delighted! We have so much cake." That line cracked me up in the original "The Philadelphia Story" when Katharine Hepburn said it and Grace Kelly does it equal justice. Loved both movies.
lisa marie mc: I would too. But not only do I no longer have the beauty and figure to wear it, but the only place I go is the Winn Dixie Food Market. I don't need to to cause hysterical laughter in the frozen vegetable department. - No one wears lovely dresses anymore. From your picture, you''d look great. - A compliment to a young woman from an old one.
@@gailjarvis2592 I'm sure you could find events & places to wear a lovely dress to. And as long as a dress is tailored to your figure, it will compliment you. If it has been made with a different figure or body type in mind, then not so much. So even for just Christmas holiday parties, find or have custom-made a beautiful dress for yourself. Dresses will always compliment women regardless of the age.
“Oh no, I’m delighted. We have so much cake.” That line right on top of Celeste’s is such fun timing. I’ve always been glad Grace got to do a comedy to end her career, and could leave us this.
Yes indeed. Dirk Bogarde said that screen acting was about the look, that Alan Ladd, for instance, wasn't very good with the words but he did great look. That stare into the lens that pins the attention of the audience and lets go only when the actor turns away or the director calls "cut".
“If you’d rather not have your privacy invaded, I will certainly respect your wishes.” I love that she subtly tells them to not photograph her wedding and to leave without actually saying it
I loved Princess Grace. She didn't kill herself to become beloved to all the people of Monaco but in the end they considered her a true citizen of Monaco. She truly had it all. An Academy award so she was an A lister way before they used this expression and not some little C actress. Never had to chase reporters and major stars. They all came to Grace. She was never impressed with herself like so many today. She didn't rush to explain to television about what the papers were writing about because there were no scandals that I can think of or former employees writing cheesy books. She was the real thing.
Personally, I think Grace Kelly in "The Country Girl" was her best performance but man! This is hilarious! Scenes like these makes me wish she never became a princess and kept acting
@@lemorab1 She actually wanted to act again. Alfred Hitchcock presented her the script of Marnie but the people of Monaco didn't want their princess to go back to hollywood so she turned him down.
@@janavarrette9206 The pressure from her husband and his relatives was probably intense. The lead character in "Marnie" was not the image they would want Her Serene Highness to portray on the screen. Still, Grace Kelly would've been fantastic in the part. If you've seen the film recently, it is mainly noteworthy for an absolutely ridiculous portrait of mental illness and completely dated, like "Three Faces of Eve."
ASSOLUTAMENTE IMPARAGONABILE LA BELLEZZA DI GRACE KELLY. DAVVERO UN MIRACOLO, UNA CREAZIONE DELLA DIVINA PROVVIDENZA. NESSUNA HA AVUTO IL FASCINO, LA CLASSE E LA GRAZIA DI GRACE, DONNA UNICA E PRINCIPESSA + REGALE DI OGNI TEMPO. GRACE KELLY E' NATA PRINCIPESSA PRIMA DI SPOSARE RANIERI, COSI AMAVA DEFINIRLA IL SUO CARO AMICO FRANK SINATRA. STREPITOSI ENTRAMBI IN QUESTO BELLISSIMO FILM. GRACE KELLY GRANDISSIMA DIVA MONDIALE ! GRACE DI MONACO PRINCIPESSA PIU' GRANDE MAI ESISTITA NELLA STORIA !
Грейс Келли - потрясающая женщина , само воплощение женственности, красоты, грации и обаяния, замечательная и талантливая американская актриса. Мое почтение и уважение.
I think Grace Kelly emulated nobody. And for better or worse Grace shone of her own. She was TRUE! Irreplaceable, matchless, unique! If she had to take a model, yes Ingrid Bergman was her favourite actress
It's a musical version. And why should there be a comparison between the two actresses when one barely had a career (5 years)? Grace was great on her own.
Please just find me another one who in so little time was so successfull all over the world. There is no one else. The big sin, is Grace left Movie to be a Princess. Ok She is still today the greatest ever, but if she had kept on acting she would have reached a higher level than the one she got. She was really very talented. I think most people remember High Society and not the same movie Hepburn made long before. K Hep is a great actress, unique, but I prefer I Bergman to her, as talent.
Yuo know everyone has a liking, and mine goes to Grace Kelly whose style and class had nothing to do with her way of baing a Princess. Grace Kelly was born that way, she was born Princess and that was written in her fate, the stars Knew everything. I think no actress has ever had facial feautures as enchanting has Grace Kelly's ones. Then she gave up too soon for showing her full talent. Only 5 years of acting and she got a well deserved Oscar. Her career lasted only 5 y. Please just find me
Katherine Hepburn was great, But gorgeous Grace Kelly made this marvellous movie with a total mastery. She was really surpassing. Actually Grace was much more beautiful than Katie. Really a great pity she ritired from acting just after this movie. She took on the screen style, grace and timeless beauty.
Ya but this movies plot was lacking extremely because of the musical numbers they decided to put in. I much preferred the Katherine Hepburn one. Although I don’t see why they didn’t just put these people in a movie together without remaking an older one
Prendo spunto proprio da questo film *Alta Societa* per ringraziare l'autrice dell'articolo riguardante l'asino, anche perche', anche io, ne sono una Fervente ammiratrice e nessuna parola, poteva meglio esprimere i miei sentimenti riguardo a questo tenerissimo animale. Anche' perche', fra le tante espressioni negative ed ingiuste, rivolte a questo animale, ci sia stata (per fortuna al passato) la "modalita", per dare dell'ignorante ad un alunno, quello di mettergli in testa due orecchie d'asino. Ringrazio, dunque per l'appassionato articolo, ricordando a chi voglia fare la stessa lettura che, probabilmente, ci siamo trovati nell'alta societa' degli animali.
Grace Kelly is really superior to old Katherine Hepburn. Freshness, beauty and style belonged to Grace Kelly. She stands no rivals. High Society is well known all over the World. This movie come out next to Grace's Wedding to Ranier III of Monaco
But The Philadelphia Story is a damned good movie too. And Hepburn was clever enough to buy the rights to it, so the studio would have to hire her if they wanted to make it...after they had labelled her box office poison.
Grace is a terrible actress compared to Hepburn. Beautiful, graceful and icy ... Yes. But there's a reason Philadelphia Story is soooooo much better. It wasn't just Kate. Jimmy Stewart and Cary Grant and all the supporting cast were vastly superior.
The play the Philadelphia story was written for thr late great katherine hepburn by phillip Barry. Hepburn bought the movie rights of the same. Grace Kelly is lovely in the musical version...however she lacks the edge , the wit , the voice and comic timing and arrogance of the original.
lol I discovered the same of these 2vmovies and it was a lol moment like the movie Reverent w LEO DiCaprio this is a remake from the 60s' about a man and his survival from an attack of a grizzly bear in Alaska r some PLACE cold huh I was so glad I didn't go to movie to see it! Hollywood like the music industry have very few original ideas for the PPL. Classic movies r it for me Cary Grant Kate Hwpburn Bringing Up Baby Grace Kelly Huh Society Dreamy FRANK Sinatra Fred Astaire no word to describe him league of his own James Stewart the movie HARVEY is a belly LAUGH and his acting superb Susan Hayward I Want To Live not to be missed nor Backstreet w John Gavin yeah Lana Turner Imitation of Life w gorgeous John Gavin also Rita Hayward Ava Gardner Frank Sinatra Doris Day Lucille Ball multitalented not a dumb redhead housewife CLASSY! TED TURNER U OUGHT TO RELEASE THE MOVIES U ARE HARBORING IN THE TCM VAULT then selling for absurd prices when u do release them. U know majority of your viewers are past the partying theatre movie going ETC WE like being home eating OUR own microwave popcorn drinking sodas come on aren't u a man if compassion we not invalid r senile we like good movies with substance we don't like the loud sound affects violence space fantasy super heroes makeovers in the movies today get VCRs PPL lots of classic movies are still available I've got several play my movies from 40 yrs ago dvds huh a ripoff THE VHS CASSETTES ARE NOT DELICATE OR WARPING FORGET THE VCR MACHINE NOW ON A COMEBACK, NAW! Old ones just as good as ever!
Grace Kelly was,at the time,and forever will be the classic example of the studio system-bred MOVIE STAR".NOT A TRUE,GENUINE ACTRESS.nO A STAR. A PERSONALITY
Oh I just had a look in your channel and only now I can get your reason. You're a Judy Garland's fan. That's clear. You know Grace won an oscar in 1955 for The Country Girl and Garland was on the list, Audrey Hepburn and Dorothy Dandrige as well. Grace had no fault. A jury gave Grace the Oscar Prize: Usually all Grace Kelly's fans admire Garland, but every Garland's fan is still gnawing at grace's win over Judy, and everyone of them hate Grace. The jury decided that way.
Does anyone know why Grace Kelly always played the love interest of geezers 40 years older than her in the movies and then ended up marrying on 40 years older than her. No wonder she drove herself off a cliff.
there's no need to be so insensitive about her death. firstly, age gaps were common in the 50s, it was normal. they weren't 40 years older, 20-30 usually. secondly, it's not as though she deliberately chose her male co-stars, that was the director's decision. thirdly, she did not drive herself off a cliff. she and her daughter, stephanie, were driving to her school, when grace suffered a stroke while driving. complications from the accident and the brain damage were the cause of her untimely death.
@@ocwaveoc69 1. I'd like a reliable polling source for that "unbiased majority" claim because another comment in here says otherwise. And I knew about High Society first before PS. 2. KHepburn's movie was the original and musicals, particularly high comedy isn't for everyone. I'd be worried if a lot of people actually say High Society outdid Philadelphia Story.
I think Grace Kelly is really gorgeous and I love her style, etc. but in all of the movies I've seen of hers I just can't get over her voice! I wish she had not changed it by getting elocution lessons. It just sounds phoney and shrill.
Man they are mediocre, not to say rotten bad at acting, but when you compare that scene with the timing and spark of the 1940 film version, it gets really drepressing. One senses the director is really there for nothing, and the effort is just about VistaVision Technicolor, Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly's slim waist and perfectly groomed, bedazzling blond wigs.
@@haranoe No, I mean just watch the one you so clearly prefer. No one's forcing you to watch something you don't appreciate. Not everyone is cultured enough for high comedy.
@@haranoe And what is high comedy really all about? Or is it just what you think it is? All I read was whining that the material is not to your liking and not much else. You seem to know a lot about film-making and acting so what exactly do you mean by 'spark'?
Grace had no hollywood connections. She was just a model in New York. Idk how people seem uncomfortable of pretty and talented women making it. And she won an Oscar.
@@lem.006 She did have her Uncle George Kelly who was a playright but I don't think he opened many doors for her. She had to work the same as the others.
This child actress, whomever she was/is, has always made me cringe. Cringe. I wonder who her producer father was. It had to be nepotism. Whenever she was in screen - in other movies too: cringe.
