0:00:10.969,0:00:12.849
She was born in a prospers

0:00:12.849,0:00:14.329
Philadelphia family.

0:00:14.986,0:00:17.096
Though she was a shy child,

0:00:17.096,0:00:19.156
she will live her life in the public eye.

0:00:19.730,0:00:21.320
"Don't try to be a hero!

0:00:21.320,0:00:23.590
You don't have to be a hero,[br]not for me!"

0:00:23.590,0:00:25.135
"I'm not trying to be a hero..."

0:00:25.135,0:00:27.210
At the age of 23, her beauty and talent

0:00:27.210,0:00:28.530
took her to Hollywood.

0:00:32.889,0:00:36.364
She made eleven films in[br]three and a half years

0:00:36.364,0:00:39.614
and became one of the most[br]sought-after stars of her time.

0:00:42.152,0:00:44.860
She worked with Hollywood's[br]most important directors,

0:00:46.809,0:00:49.039
played opposite its top leading men.

0:00:56.703,0:00:58.533
"There's nothing quite so mysterious

0:00:58.533,0:01:00.733
and silent as a dark theater..."

0:01:00.733,0:01:05.373
Then, at 26, she turned her back[br]on make-believe.

0:01:07.859,0:01:09.999
But make-believe came true,

0:01:09.999,0:01:12.989
in a fairy tale shared[br]by the entire world.

0:01:14.006,0:01:15.776
Her name was Grace Kelly.

0:01:16.854,0:01:21.404
It became Her Serene Highness,[br]Princess Grace of Monaco.

0:01:33.632,0:01:35.722
I don't think Grace really believed that

0:01:35.722,0:01:37.628
she was going to give up acting when

0:01:37.628,0:01:39.438
she became Princess Grace from Monaco

0:01:39.633,0:01:43.633
I think that the reallity of that probably

0:01:43.633,0:01:46.103
struck her some place in the middle of

0:01:46.103,0:01:48.883
the Mediterranean after the honeymoon again

0:01:48.977,0:01:52.977
She took everything so much in her stride

0:01:52.977,0:01:58.248
nothing seemed to be too much for her

0:01:59.182,0:02:01.992
Of any name, Grace, could not have been

0:02:01.992,0:02:03.402
more fitting

0:02:03.402,0:02:08.175
and even her death, her tragic early death

0:02:09.759,0:02:13.759
made her enter even more into legend

0:02:18.382,0:02:21.902
Monaco, a principality of less than

0:02:21.902,0:02:25.022
five hundred acres on the French Riviera

0:02:25.872,0:02:29.282
For centuries, the monarchs had held on

0:02:29.282,0:02:33.282
to their distinctive character, [br]and their pride

0:02:34.075,0:02:35.807
But, to this world, this place was known

0:02:35.807,0:02:37.657
as a "playground for the wealthy"

0:02:37.657,0:02:41.657
and came to enjoy its beauty [br]and its gambling

0:02:42.202,0:02:44.822
Monaco became a home of young [br]American actress

0:02:44.822,0:02:47.778
who arrieved in 1956 to be its Princess

0:02:49.197,0:02:51.265
She brought it fame, her cool beauty

0:02:51.265,0:02:56.005
her intelligence, and she brought war[br]a sense of purpose

0:02:56.362,0:03:00.362
Well, this story about the Princess [br]was firmly anchored in reality

0:03:02.205,0:03:04.315
Reality had its origins

0:03:04.315,0:03:06.605
back in Philadelphia

0:03:07.291,0:03:10.101
Competition came easily to the Kelly's

0:03:10.101,0:03:11.671
here along Kelly Drive

0:03:11.671,0:03:14.681
named after Grace's father, John B. Kelly

0:03:14.681,0:03:16.821
they still race in the sport for which

0:03:16.821,0:03:19.641
Jack Kelly won an Olympic medal

0:03:22.096,0:03:24.916
A statue elected by the citizens [br]of Philadelphia

0:03:24.916,0:03:27.216
commemorates that achievement

0:03:31.239,0:03:34.599
Jack Kelly's father was a bricklayer from[br]Ireland

0:03:34.599,0:03:37.269
who went on to make a fortune

0:03:37.269,0:03:40.319
young Jack soon joined [br]the family business:

0:03:40.319,0:03:43.081
construction and brick making

0:03:44.038,0:03:45.968
He started his own business

0:03:45.968,0:03:47.968
and made his own fortune

0:03:48.388,0:03:50.418
But he always professed pride in

0:03:50.418,0:03:53.128
his family's humble origins

0:03:54.696,0:03:56.516
Jack Kelly belived that the world

0:03:56.516,0:03:58.196
was what you made of it

0:03:59.518,0:04:01.748
Margaret Majer, who married Jack, had been

0:04:01.748,0:04:04.408
a model as well as a champion [br]swimmer athlete

0:04:06.047,0:04:07.737
Margaret and Jack were determined

0:04:07.737,0:04:10.687
to raise their children in their own way

0:04:16.428,0:04:20.428
If you are good enough, you're sure [br]to reach the top

0:04:20.454,0:04:24.454
It was drilled into Kelly children [br]from their earliest years

0:04:31.263,0:04:35.063
As a family, we were always very close

0:04:35.063,0:04:38.446
four of us, Peggy, my sister, the oldest

0:04:38.446,0:04:41.676
our brother Jack, Grace and then myself

0:04:41.676,0:04:44.359
She was the baby for three and [br]a half years

0:04:44.359,0:04:46.292
and loved every minute of it

0:04:46.292,0:04:48.702
Grace, when she was young, she [br]was very shy

0:04:48.702,0:04:50.422
and a mama's baby

0:04:50.940,0:04:53.590
There were many times were we had [br]pictures taken

0:04:53.590,0:04:55.293
that our mother had to lean back

0:04:55.293,0:04:58.233
away from the camera so Grace[br]would not cry

0:04:58.233,0:05:00.113
and taken away from her mother

0:05:00.278,0:05:03.918
she was very sweet and soft, and[br]loved to held

0:05:03.918,0:05:06.488
and cuddled and kissed, and loved

0:05:07.598,0:05:09.358
I, on the other hand, and I think my

0:05:09.358,0:05:11.938
brother and older sister, were more

0:05:11.938,0:05:14.026
"don't let me" "don't get around me"

0:05:14.026,0:05:15.496
we wanted to do our own things

0:05:16.127,0:05:20.127
we always had a place at the shore,[br]when we were young

0:05:20.505,0:05:23.955
and, at that time, I think we had our best[br]times together

0:05:24.273,0:05:25.897
we just had a marvelous time

0:05:25.897,0:05:30.237
and Grace, all her life, loved [br]being by the ocean and the sea

0:05:32.434,0:05:36.118
Grace and all the family were [br]a competitive family

0:05:37.288,0:05:40.758
I htink we got that, I know we got that[br]from our mother and our father

0:05:40.894,0:05:46.004
They stilled into us a deep sense [br]of competition

0:05:46.004,0:05:49.864
and the love of sports

0:05:50.433,0:05:56.533
the will of winning, but also taught us [br]how to lose gracefully

0:05:57.810,0:06:01.810
But the Kelly's didn't intend to lose [br]and there never was a better

0:06:01.810,0:06:04.740
drillness during the Jack Kelly

0:06:04.740,0:06:10.800
It was fun, family fun, and it left a [br]special kind of determinaiton

0:06:14.022,0:06:19.727
This determination didn't matter Grace[br]as much in the sporting field

0:06:20.083,0:06:24.083
But her determination sooner took [br]another turn

0:06:24.179,0:06:31.439
She loved sit by the hours and pretend[br]and create situations and say

0:06:31.439,0:06:33.906
"Lizzie, you do this, and I'll be this"

0:06:33.906,0:06:36.435
and "I'll be the mother and you'll be [br]the baby"

0:06:36.435,0:06:39.545
of course, I gave her a hard time[br]a lot of times because I did not

0:06:39.545,0:06:41.015
want to play her games

0:06:41.888,0:06:45.888
For Grace, growing up wealthy meant[br]winter sports in Lake Placid

0:06:49.010,0:06:51.760
It also meant, the best private schools

0:06:55.637,0:06:59.237
working for causes they believed in[br]started young

0:06:59.237,0:07:03.237
with modeling it's society fasion benefits

0:07:03.740,0:07:07.740
But for Grace, this shows meant more [br]than fundraising

0:07:07.751,0:07:09.651
It was theatre

0:07:10.423,0:07:14.423
She got most of her love from the [br]theatre my uncle George

0:07:14.793,0:07:18.043
He was a play writer and he directed plays

0:07:18.127,0:07:23.669
Very gracious, highly educated person[br]well-read, and very witty

0:07:24.097,0:07:29.467
and she just was fascinated with [br]all the tails of the stage and the theatre

0:07:29.795,0:07:33.795
Her uncle George, tell her she was a [br]great example to him

0:07:34.756,0:07:41.445
He was sensitive and kind, and talented[br]I think of all the men she ever knew

0:07:41.445,0:07:44.470
rather than going for the [br]"athletic macho type"

0:07:44.470,0:07:48.470
I think her ideal man was her uncle George

0:07:48.649,0:07:56.181
My recollections of father and John B. [br]an Jack Kelly were an enourmous man with

0:07:56.181,0:07:59.181
a tremendous amount of gust, [br]everything up-front

0:07:59.181,0:08:01.941
everything in the open, moved ahead

0:08:01.941,0:08:06.902
A nice man, but not a tremendous[br]amount of internal sensitivity

0:08:07.540,0:08:13.476
Her father believed absolutely the pea[br]that our elder sister was going to be

0:08:13.476,0:08:17.315
like the big star of the family and succed

0:08:17.414,0:08:21.775
and he never payed her the attention [br]to the family and his 4 children

0:08:22.542,0:08:27.922
and she was quiet, observant of the [br]others and adored her older brother

0:08:29.310,0:08:35.407
John B. Kelly Jr., an also athletic star, [br]great racer

0:08:35.407,0:08:37.227
her father thought he was great

0:08:37.227,0:08:41.726
but Gracie just accepted, and I don't[br]think he understood her at all

0:08:42.623,0:08:44.053
but she adored him

0:08:44.191,0:08:49.851
and yet, one worders, when you don't[br]get from a parent, what it is

0:08:49.851,0:08:53.851
perhaps what you need, if that isn't what [br]creates a great deal of the driving in

0:08:53.851,0:08:57.851
you to go out and become the fullest [br]part of yourself

0:08:58.225,0:09:07.197
She decided to go to New York, and my[br]mother and father escpecially surprised

0:09:07.197,0:09:11.197
because she was a shy and retiring girl

0:09:11.580,0:09:16.010
My mother and father were a little scary[br]of New York and on her own

0:09:16.010,0:09:23.185
but mother said "Jack, it is not as if she[br]is going to Hollywood or to California"

0:09:23.580,0:09:28.574
Grace knew that her father didn't think[br]much of an acting career

0:09:28.676,0:09:31.156
They allowed her to go, to get it out[br]of her system

0:09:31.156,0:09:33.097
"Let her go, it won't be anything"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
