Recently, I found myself rekindling my love for the movie Monte Carlo. It was released in 2011 and stars Selena Gomez, Leighton Meester, Katie Cassidy, Cory Monteith, Andie MacDowell, and more. It follows the story of a small town girl named Grace (Gomez), who works all throughout high school at a diner to save up for her dream trip to Paris. Accompanying her is her older friend Emma (Cassidy), who also works at the diner, and is dating Owen (Monteith).
After Grace's graduation, she is thrown a dinner by her mom (MacDowell) and her mother'a boyfriend. His daughter Meg, (Meester), joins as well. Meg has kept to herself since the passing of her mother. In an attempt to grow a sisterly bond, their parents send Meg along with Grace and Emma to Paris. None of the girls are thrilled with this idea.
Once in Paris, they find out that their tour is no where near luxurious, or even average at that. After getting left behind at the Eiffel Tower, the girls stumble through the rainy streets of Paris, hoping to find their way back to the hotel. While trying to find shelter from the pouring rain, the girls walk in to a very elegant hotel, where the meet Cordelia (also played by Selena Gomez), who is the spitting image of Grace. When Cordelia decides to skip out on her charity event, the hotel staff confuse her with Grace. The girls, needing a place to sleep, went along with it.
When morning comes, the girls intend on going back where they belong, but again are thrust back into Cordelia's luxurious life, being sent on a private plane to Monte Carlo. And that is where the fun begins! The girls go on adventures, find love, and realize they had all they needed in the first place.
This movie is an absolute must-see!
Here's a link to buy it:
