These enchanting photos of Grace Kelly the night she won her 1954 Oscar were simply too charming to keep to myself! The intimate glimpses of the star rehearsing her acceptance speech in the car and later with a sailor eager for an autograph reveal such a sense of nervousness and excitement. Kelly was a mere 25-years-old at the time and won for her starring role in ‘The Country Girl.’ She wore an ice-blue dress by costume designer Edith Head and beat out the likes of Judy Garland and Audrey Hepburn that year for the Best Actress Award.
