In his dimly lit, high-ceilinged office at Olympic Maritime, a pensive Aristotle Onassis is illuminated by light streaming through shuttered windows. The year is 1955, and the shipping magnate, dressed in a dark double-breasted suit, stands beside a large terrestrial globe. He had recently become the most important shareholder of the Casino in Monte Carlo, declaring boldly: "I am ready, I am going to save the Principality."
