From the perspective of the film's plot, although it is a trivial historical fact, it integrates various elements of international political conspiracy, palace suspense, personal growth and love. The whole film does not have the dull drawbacks of ordinary biopics. The depiction also has the dreamy feeling of love fairy tales, which is very in line with the passion and inspiration of a fairy tale movie and a Hollywood movie. Of course, for the sake of the film, the film deliberately dwarfed and vilified de Gaulle, which is indeed debatable, but from the film itself, it played a finishing touch. Fairy tales always need a strong and powerful villain, so that the heroine, Princess Grace, can better reflect the bravery and fantasy.
In the context of Morocco's diplomacy, the former movie stars, through their unremitting efforts, finally chose the latter between their favorite acting career and country, dream and family. This choice is painful but inevitable, just like a movie "The princess is the greatest character in her life". After sacrificing her ego, her spirit sublimated to a larger self. "Life is destined to play a role, always above the self, so that we can overcome our fears." Sometimes, some careers require us to forget ourselves, not because of ourselves Not important, but because the value of the self is far less than the value of the self or no self, and sacrifice is precisely in exchange for that greater value.
The most unforgettable part for me was the climactic Red Cross dinner. Before Grace Kelly gave a speech, there was a few minutes of opera performance by the famous American Greek soprano Mara. Leah Callas (who was once hailed as the greatest opera queen of the twentieth century), who sings in Giacamo Puccini's Gianni Schicchi in the film The famous song "My Dear Dad" is a moving aria. The main idea of the lyrics is that the daughter hopes that her father will agree with her choice of love and marriage, and that she will die if she refuses to agree. The arrangement of the song in this scene has a lot of meaning, embodying the determination of the Princess of Morocco, making it more natural for de Gaulle to change his mind soon after. She stepped onto the podium in the spotlight and moved the audience with her moving speech.
