Clearly everybody can see it will be a flop so they don't even show up at castings...

I wish there would be a way to short a movie, (like the way one can short a stock). Because nearly all Nicole's movies lose money and are flops. She is so egotistical and vain to think she can pull off 33 yr old Grace (who was the most beautiful woman in the world) at age 45 and as the world famous poster child for Failed Plastic Surgery. Walking Train Wreck of a Movie. Brilliant Idea to cast her as Charlene - maybe its not too late to change the script and hire a gorgeous unknown for the main role.

paca - exactly! She is gorgeous! in the US, one of Nicole's nicknames is "granny freeze". Enough said.

I think she has altogether more Graces proportions then Kidmann. SHe'd make Tim Roth look like her granddad though. Have to say as much as I like him, he is a total miscast as Rainier too. He is a complete different type and also way too old. Too thin too. I don't know what they've been thinking, but really this is a huge flop in the making. Marion Cotillard would have made a better Grace too. With the rightmake up. And we know she can act, has the age and her name is well enough known to draw people in. But I guess none of the good choices thought much of the script or they already played biographical roles....can't do too much of those, if you want to keep in business and get good ones in the future.

nicole is doing loads of promotion already, giving heaps of interviews. I don't think she is very confident about it either, otherwise why all this PR already for a movie that is not going to come out before 2013 or 14. By tat time everyone will have forgotten....

I'm not feeling it for that movie. I'm also positive it's entirely and desperately funded by Albert to keep her out there so he doesn't have to live up to his title.

wondering why the palace didn't agree to have scenes shot on location. It's not like the offices are used much these days...or are they afraid people would find out?

It might be that actual rooms are too small to film in. I don't know much about movies, but I got the impression it takes oodles of space to film a small room. Cameras, directors, lights, it all takes up a lot of space and the rooms in the palace aren't particulary huge. I suppose they could have done a blue (green these days?) screen session and replace them pictures of the palace rooms. Maybe too much work or maybe multi-country productions get (more) EU-grants? Who knows?

Who knows? Filming is super disruptive. There are cargo vans parked outside with wires crossing sidewalks, union workers, not to mention they're half on drugs to cope with debilitating hours...they think Roma are a problem!!?

Maybe. But Albert had something... The Office of tourism completely missed a opportunity to work together. The film is a big promotion for MC. And now they just filming a little on the street and at the outside of buildings... (the most in Genoa and South France / soon Belgium) A missed opportunity. JMO

From the newspaper: ... Even before the actress has put a foot on Belgian soil, the Nicole Kidman-craziness all erupted. More than 3,000 Belgians things along to a walk-on role in the film that Kidman comes here. "We have never seen such a rush ', according to the casting Office. … So there are the studios of Alfacam, in the Antwerp Lint. There is the Interior of the Palace of Monaco meticulously re-created. The real Palace is since the time of Grace Kelly already too bright renovated. … Or they need to the Brussels Parliament, where the Office of Prince Rainier is simulated. Though not yet officially confirm by the Parliament itself. www.standaard.be/artikel/detail.aspx?artikelid=DMF20121030_00353337

JMO Yes but some Monaccans (I'm inventing a new word) may have let a few too many truths slip in their presence and who wants to have freedom of expression when they've been doing so long without it?

LOL MC matin is reporting it too www.monacomatin.mc/derniere-minute/monaco-la-famille-princiere-desavoue-le-film-grace-of-monaco.1114089.htmlThe funny part is that they think it is too glamorous. Rofl they are flogging Grace for years now in the hope to catch some of her glamour and now the movie is too glamourous? Is that because there are still enough people alive who remember that time and might compare it to trashy and her total lack of glamour? The movie is supposed to come out in 2014, how come they have already seen it and are able to pass a valid verdict? Personally I think they could have simply not granted them the support to begin with. A lot of MC people are in it because they thought it was approved. And now they say it isn't? That movies are not absolutely accurate all of them should know. Especially as children of an actress. Totally ridiculous.
