The Hitchcock Blonde, Grace Kelly had a somewhat short but remarkable career that turned her into a timeless big-screen icon. She made her film debut with 1951’s Fourteen Hours before achieving international stardom with 1952’s High Noon and 1953’s Mogambo. Her performance in 1954’s The Country Girl won her the Best Actress Oscar, a win that remains divisive. Kelly then starred in three of Alfred Hitchcock’s most iconic films: Dial M for Murder, Rear Window, and To Catch a Thief. She retired from acting after marrying Prince Rainier III and becoming Princess of Monaco, a title she held until her tragic passing in 1982.
