Monet, Cezanne, Degas, Renoir: some of the world’s most popular artists. Their works, and that of their contemporaries, fetch tens of millions of dollars around the globe. But who were they really? Why & how exactly did they paint? What lies behind their enduring appeal? To help answer these questions, this unique film secured unparalleled access to a major exhibition focussing on the man credited with inventing impressionism as we know it: 19th-century Parisian art collector Paul Durand-Ruel. This eagerly anticipated international exhibition is possibly the most comprehensive exploration of the Impressionists in history.

O casamento de Grace Kelly (Nicole Kidman) e o príncipe Rainier III (Tim Roth) foi considerado um conto de fadas na vida real quando aconteceu, em 1956.

A chance de novamente sentir-se útil surge quando seu velho amigo, o diretor Alfred Hitchcock (Roger Ashton-Griffiths), a convida para retornar ao cinema como protagonista de seu próximo filme: "Marnie - Confissões de uma Ladra". O problema é que Rainier é terminantemente contra e, ainda por cima, está envolvido com uma ameaça vinda do presidente francês Charles de Gaule (André Penvern): caso Mônaco não pague impostos à França e acabe com o paraíso fiscal existente, o principado será invadido em seis meses. Em meio às inevitáveis tensões, Grace e Rainier buscam resolver seus problemas tentando evitar que eles causem o divórcio.

Paul Reynolds is a Gatsby-like figure: owner of a magnificent house, the host of great parties, and a collector of interesting people. He persuades Lizzie Thomas, a secretary at a local estate agent's, to come and work for him as his assistant, to bring some order to his chaos. He inspires her with his enthusiasm and imagination, and frustrates her with his apparent carelessness and destructiveness, which culminates in her calling the police as one of his parties is attacked by local troublemakers, seemingly with his tacit approval. But their paths are destined to cross again and again as Lizzie, with the help of some of the people that she met at Paul's house, rises through the changing landscape of corporate Britain. This is the tale of a meaningful and powerful relationship that isn't a love story; it's about those rare people who profoundly influence and shape our lives.
