Grant and Grace

John Robie: Why don't you own a place like this?
Frances Stevens: Palaces are for royalty. We're just common people with a back account.
--To Catch a Thief

Wonderful shot of Cary Grant and Grace Kelly on the set of To Catch a Thief in 1955.

A famous scene from the film finds Grace speeding around the curves in the surrounding French Riveria hillsides while Grant white knuckles it in the passenger seat.

Ironically, over 25 years later, Princess Grace of Monaco would lose her life when she drove her car off a similar serpentine road not all that far from the Thief set.
