Million Dollar American Princesses (2015)

S2E1 Queens of the Screen

Three American actresses were on the verge of stepping into the most significant roles of their lives, far from Los Angeles. Join Elizabeth McGovern, known for "Downton Abbey," as she explores the journeys of Grace Kelly, Gloria Swanson, and Rita Hayworth as they transitioned from Hollywood icons to members of European nobility. Unlike earlier Million Dollar American Princesses, these stars infused the aristocracy with extraordinary glamour and celebrity, along with captivating twists and turns that could easily compete with the plots of their own films.
