The couple's children, Princess Caroline and Prince Albert, were also featured in the film. The musical soundtrack to the film was written by Percy Faith and performed by the Orchestre National de l'Opera de Monte Carlo, and released as a separate LP. ''A Look at Monaco'' was based on another television special, ''A Tour of the White House with Mrs. John F. Kennedy'', which had featured the First Lady of the United States Jacqueline Kennedy, wife of President of the United States John F. Kennedy.〔 ''A Look at Monaco'' was written by Cynthia Lindsay and produced by William Frye.〔 The director of photography was Lionel Loudon.〔 The film represented a return to the screen for Princess Grace, who had retired in 1956 following the filming of ''High Society'' and her subsequent marriage to Rainier. The film's production costs were $400,000, and the rights to the film became Grace's property after its sole broadcast in the United States. Grace stipulated that the film should be produced in colour and that no advertisements could be broadcast within three minutes of a scene featuring the Monegasque royal family.〔 ==Content== The film includes a tour of the Prince's Palace of Monaco conducted by Grace, a visit to the Monaco Zoo with Grace and her family, Grace and Rainier attending the Opéra de Monte-Carlo with his father, Prince Pierre, Duke of Valentinois, and his sister, Princess Antoinette, Baroness of Massy. The film also shows Grace visiting an orphanage and Grace and Rainier attending mass at the Monaco Cathedral.〔 The Casino de Monte Carlo is not featured, as Grace stipulated that no gambling should be depicted in the film.
