- There was a guy on here awhile ago who said he had hooked up with Deloin in NYC in the 80s. That they met in an adult bookstore and Deloin sucked his dick in a video booth.\
\
I know, anyone can say that but for some reason the post seemed really credible; the details, what he looked like and the location of the store (which I remember from the pervy halcyon days of Times Square).
- I ate his ass in 1978
- It really does pay to ask...Thanks guys!
- I wouldn''t believe any of those personal stories. \
\
He admitted to having affairs with men when he was in the military for four years in his late teens. He came from a very rough background--foster parents were murdered, he was in and out of prison.
- [quote]He admitted to having affairs with men when he was in the military for four years in his late teens%0D\
%0D\
''admitted''...who hasn''t?%0D\
%0D\
He''s spoken quite openly about loving men as well as women. He''s bisexual.
- op, you could have worse obsessions
Franco Nero
- I know, right?\
\
What bugs the shit out of me is rarely finding his early films in either good condition or with subtitles or both....\
\
In the very early films - he looks like a dark haired and prettier Zac Efron...\
\
The only gossip I dug up was that notorious letch/agent/pimp Henry Willson spotted him in France and tried to broker a deal with him before he became famous. Willson also made sure Rock Hudson tagged along to the meeting. \
\
Delon ended up not signing and staying in France.\
\
Rock Hudson''s only comment was (according to the book on Henry Willson):\
\
"He doesn''t have a big dick!"\
\
The funny thing is Delon''s dick looks fairly decent.

OP
- He had a fling with Marianne Faithfull when they made Girl on a Motorcycle!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEOwybriej4
- A beautiful toilet\
\
(It loses something in the translation...)
Catherine Deneuve
- He was absolutely gorgeous in Technicolor suspenser Purple Noon (the French adaptation of Talented Mr. Ripley) and is well worth seeking out. Netflix or your local library should be able to get it for you.
- I always think he was at his most handsome at around the age of forty...see clip. The tres romantic 70s theme music helps too.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zp1hp9J7iFE
- The writer of this entertaining blog has a terrible title for it, but you can find enticing material on Alain Delon on the right side. And other juicy stuff.
http://neptsdepths.blogspot.com/2011/01/do-you-have-airport-look.html
- Have you seen "Purple Noon", OP? It was made about 40 years before "The Talented Mr. Ripley", and he was at the peak of his beauty in it.
- r13 are you kidding?
r10
- A few years ago, Martin Scorsese''s film company put out a DVD version of "Purple Noon" which includes both the original French version as well as an English-dubbed option.
- R1, I'm the one who 'fessed up to the encounter with Delon. The videostore was actually Exxpressions, which is the subject of another thread. It's not in Times Square, it's on E 53rd betw 3rd and 2nd Ave. It makes far more sense he would have sneaked into that one-he probably was staying on 1st Ave or Park at the time. He was standing in the booth with the door half open. He was watching a straight porn video and stroking his dick. I could tell it was him right away. His dick was thick, obviously uncut, average size. White hair. Not in particularly good shape but I didn't care, it was fucking Alain Delon! I went straight for his nipples and sucked on them for a while. He didn't make a sound and he didn't move his hands to guide me anywhere. I went down on him and sucked his dick until he came. As far as I could tell he never looked at me, his eyes were closed. He shot his load on the floor after I finished him off with a handjob. Not a word was exchanged. I was still OK with it although of course I would have loved for there to have been reciprocation! But I had sex with someone I regarded as having been the most beautiful man ever (next to Franco Nero) and that was, in the end, enough for me.
- "obviously uncut"\
\
Why obviously?
- P.S., the encounter wasn''t in the 80''s, it was in the summer of 2006.
- Wouldn''t you have preferred to suck him off in his "Purple Noon" days, rather than when he was an old man?
- His Purple Noon days instead of his purple knob days?
- Sorry, but I think it was just an old man that looked kinda like Alain Delon R-16, Alain Delon very rarely comes to America, much less hang out at obscure book stores in NY.
- do you know how many guys i have mouth fucked at expressions?
monsieur alain
- I have also recently become obsessed with him R-1! He was outrageously beautiful, I read the press referred to him as the Angelic Ice King LOL. He is the definition of smoldering sex appeal, and a very good actor as well. Actors from that time, especially American actors, always had to be "macho" a bit wooden, & very self aware. Alain Delon is both manly, sensual and uninhibited. To my surprise he also admitted his bisexuality early in his career. I want to see more of his films. I loved Rocco & his Brothers and Purple Noon- his performance in that is legendary BTW. I want to see Le Cercle Rouge & Le Samourai. Scorpio with Burt Lancaster is coming on TMC tonight, and I will record it and watch later.
- [quote]Sorry, but I think it was just an old man that looked kinda like Alain Delon R-16, Alain Delon very rarely comes to America, much less hang out at obscure book stores in NY.%0D\
%0D\
I see, you know all about his comings and goings. Even how often he comes to New York or even IN New York, as it were. R16 talked about one encounter, he didn''t claim to be sucking his dick on a weekly basis. %0D\
%0D
- I have both Purple Moon and Rocco and his brothers with English subs (reasonable quality).\
\
Is it OK to post downloads here?
- Purple Moon - oh dear !%0D\
%0D\
Purple Noon (Plein Soleil) is on dvd with subtitles, much better than any dubbed version. Its a delirious treat with the real mediterranean of 1960 and those great clothes - not like the 1999 version, and of course Delon at 24 is the definition of icy beauty. Le Samurai from 1967 is also classic, as is Le Piscine from 1969, lots of swimming pool stuff, with his ex lover Romy Schneider, and Maurice Ronet from Plein Soleil. %0D\
%0D\
His other classics include Visconti''s The Leopard in 1963 - wonder if he and Burt got it on with gay Visconti - they also did a second movie together Scoprio but that was a Michael Winner "thriller" when they were older. He is also good in Antonioni''s "L''eclisse" in 1962.
- All I know from my mom who was a fan when she was a teen, was that he was connected to some murder case. What was that about?
- Alain in Purple Moon
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6r7eKsbrUw
- thanks guys! Lots of great info in here!
- It''s too bad that Alain Delon did not show his ass in "Purple Noon" the way Jude Law & Matt Damon did in "The Talented Mr. Ripley".\
\
But he does wear a skimpy Speedo-type bathing suit towards the end of the movie.
- His mother is in "Nico Icon", a doc about Nico. She raised Ari, his son with Nico and pretty much trashes him. She said he never payed child support and only visited Ari once and he brought him an orange.
- Sounds like Rock Hudson got rebuffed R-7. I want to know who his male lovers were though.
- Purple Noon has the most beautiful, subtle color palette -- it looks like it was filmed today.\
\
Reminds me of the breathtaking Technicolor in Black Narcissus -- another one that hasn''t dated a second.
- Indeed 33 - Purple Noon (Plein Soleil to us Europeans) and Black Narcissus are 2 of the best colour films ever, add in Blow-Up as well. oh, and Modesty Blaise, and The Leopard. My top 5 ! and Pandora and the Flying Dutchman.
- I was obsessed with him when I was a teenager. He was the most beautiful man in the world, and had so much charisma. \
I saw him a year ago having a romantic walk in the Bois de Boulogne in France with a female model who was probably 50 years younger than him. Impeccably dressed, he was the gentleman and took her on a boat ride on the lake. \
Too bad he has some really shitty political views and has become more or less paranoid.
- It was Nico who brought her child an orange, Alain never accepted their love-child Ari.
- I''ve mentioned this before in another thread. Bob Evans wrote about being with Delon and his wife and Bob''s buddy Eddie Fisher playing cards at Bob''s house. Bob dropped a card and bent down to pick it up and spied Mrs Delon playing with the crotch of Eddie Fisher. He said nothing until the next morning when they woke up and found out that Mrs Delon had packed her bags and followed Eddie to a gig in Florida. Evans and Delon followed her and tried to persuade the wife to return to California with them, but she refused. The marriage was over.\
\
Eddie over Alain. Wow.
- Eddie Fisher had an enormous cock but the face of a schnook!
- According to what David Ehrenstein posted here once, before he became an actor he had an affair with the openly gay actor Jean-Claude Brialy, who took him along to the Cannes film festival, where he then hooked up with a mafioso, who got him his start in the film business.\
\
Ehrenstein also said that Visconti used to watch as he fucked Romy Schneider.
- Was he the French actor who was into scat?
- ^ No.\
\
R-37 It is rumored that they both attended orgies and had an open marriage.
- I am female and not gay, although I have fooled around with women in orgy settings, before the HIV thing came along. I imagine if Delon has had gay experiences it was in orgy settings too. You should see his love scene in The Widow Couderc, with Ottavia Piccolo, who played a teenage unwed mother. They are the hottest I have ever seen. Seeing him kissing her in the French way, I am certain he is not gay. Some things can't be faked, even by great actors. %0D
%0D
He is full-frontal, although somewhat hazy behind a shower door, in Le Choc. %0D
%0D
I have always held men to the Delon standard and thus never married, once jilting an ex-fiance practically at the altar. I have adored him sinced Purple Noon. His movies are available not only through Netflix but also ebay but you have to be careful that the DVDs are programmed for the US. %0D
%0D
Anyone who says Delon was in the US in 2006 is a liar, because he was being treated in Switzerland, where he is a legal resident, for a heart condition in 2006. Anyone who says he is not magnificently hung needs to see the shower scene mentioned above. Don't know if he's circumsized, but with him sho cares?%0D
%0D
He has "been" with, hung around with, whatever, with literally every beautiful actress/woman of the 60s and 70s: Those broads were no fools! When he was very young, beginning in 1957, he went with and became engaged to Romy Schneider. There are at least six massive bios of him, all in French. His romances with women are well-documented. I would love to know if he and Jane Fonda hooked uop because they weere in Joy House (French version is called The Cats or The Kittens, I think) and Fonda's French is impeccable. Haven't researched if she was married to Roger Vadim (Bardot's first husband) at the time or not.%0D
%0D
He was exceptional in all his movies, whether the movies are exceptional, or not. But he has made many great ones. In Le Samourai he gives a riviting portrayal of a hired-killer schizophrenic.%0D
%0D
He still works in Fremch TV and makes French, Italian and Swiss films. I think he is still the handsomest man on thbe planet, and he has not (yet, but Iwish he would) resorted to plastic surgery to get rid of the bags under his eyes, etc. He still has his hair and still has a great physique.%0D
%0D
He still generates major heat and I, for one, would faint if I ever saw him in person. One can stand only so much beauty before sucumbing.%0D
%0D
BUT, I wouldn't be so obsessed with %0D
Delon were he not a great actor, as well as the most handsome guy ever. And to even dare to compare icky actors like Zac Efron or Rob Lowe to Delon is ludicrous. Their looks are rank and they can't act and they generate no heat because they lack charisma.%0D
%0D
Hard to believe that the child Delon was so badly treated by his parents, he was such a beautiful young man, but I think childhood experiences probably made him the deep, soulful performer he has proven himself to be. %0D
%0D
Romy Schneider, BTW, died at 43 while still grieving for her 14-year-old son, who bled to death while trying to climb over a barbed wire or wrought-iron fence of some kind when he punctured his femoral artery a couple of years earlier. The coroner's ruling was inconclusive but most think she died of a toxic mixture of -- wait for it -- pills and booze. When Schneider died, Delon had the son's remains moved and buried next to his mother in a true gesture of love. Very moving.
Negevoli
- Oh, I forgot. In Keith Richards' autobiography, Life, he says Nathalie Delon stayed for a time with the Rolling Stones in the south of France while the Stones were recording Exile on Main Street. She, according to Keith, was hooking up with Bobby Keys, who recorded (or still records) with the Stones. She was "hiding out" at the Stones' rented villa because Alain Delon's chauffeur had just been murdered. %0D
%0D
The Delons had been -- maybe it's merely hearsay -- romantically involved (!) with the president of France and Mrs. president of France around that time. An older couiple, shall wee say, compared with the Delons, who were young. Rumor has it that Nathalie was getting it on with the chauffeur. Delon was making a movie elsewhere at the time of the chauffeur's death. All water under the bridge now. I think the chauffeur was Corsican -- Corsica is an island off the coast of France, Napoleon, all that . . .%0D
%0D
Delon, who reportedly is part Corsican, has long been accused of hanging with French gangsters based in Marseilles. Of course, Delon has several times played gangster types and several of his movies have been set in Marseilles. Who knows? You probably get to know folks when you're researching a part.%0D
%0D
Delon's worst movie, and in my humble opinion, his only really bad movie was with Marianne Faithful, Girl on a Motorcycle. His love scene with her doesn't really generate much heat and she, along with Jane Fonda, is one of Delon's more unattractive co-stars. I seer to remember some talk along those lines back in the day, but Delon has been photographed with Mick Jagger and Faithful. But I need to research that more. I'm just not that motivated. That girl has some big jaw thing goin' on, kinda like Leno, and I just can't picture Delon liking her enough to hit that. He also is kinda dismissive of druggies and she was a major junkie at the time. Unless he just hit everything, regardless of quality, which I can relate to. But I don't get why Jagger dug her, either, because with that jaw thing goin' on, she's just not, you know, that attractive. She did have a nice enough body, though, so maybe that's the attraction, not the face. You know, butter face . . .but her face . . .%0D
%0D
If only I could read French I could probably learn a lot more. Maybe when I retire I can do Rosetta Stone or something.
Negevoli
- We need biographies of Delon and Schneider in English. He has a new book out "The Women in my Life" with lots of photos - but its in French! - surely there is a market for an English version in English speaking countries. There are also at least have a dozen books on Romy Schneider but all in French or German - she still has a huge English following so we need some English books.
- Wow, great posts Negevoli.
- Alain and Jean-Paul Belmondo!
http://quixotando.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/borsalino-1970-jean-paul-belmondo-alain-delon.jpg
- Another Alain & Jean-Paul...
http://quixotando.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/borsalino-alain-delon-jean-paul-belmondo.jpg
- Thanks so much!!! Fascinating stuff!
- Negevoli, I am sure that Marianne Faithfull in her prime was far more attractive than you are or ever were.
- I see Marianne has joined us....No bitch fights - lest stick with Delon.
- And Belmondo wins for hotness!
- Here%E2%80%99s what I find fascinating about Delon.
He shoots his film debut, Quand la femme s'en m%C3%AAle in the early spring of 1957 (supposedly as a favor to a friend.)
Only a few months later he is at the Cannes Film Festival.
He is supposedly dating up and coming actress Brigitte Auber and is seen in photos from the Festival with her (generating press).
However, he seemed to have arrived with up and coming actor (and openly gay) Jean Claude Brilay. Brilay does what he can to promote Delon as well. (Again, generating press)
At the Festival, Huge Hollywood Talent Agent, Henry Willson sees Alain (and makes sure his number one client Rock Hudson sees him as well) and offers to take him to Hollywood.
It%E2%80%99s a deal Delon briefly considers and turns down. (A rather gutsy and confident move)
Somehow, during all this, Rock Hudson (who it should be noted, is the biggest male movie star in the world, at the time) later implies having seen Delon%E2%80%99s penis and was not impressed.
This is pretty heady stuff for an unknown actor with a very small part, in only one film, that has not even been released yet.
So what happens next?
Delon signs on for another film with a decent size supporting part...but nothing especially memorable.
And then, almost magically, he signs on for the coveted male lead in a big budget film, %E2%80%9CChristine%E2%80%9D !
All of this happens in less than a year%E2%80%99s time from the Cannes Film Festival!
%E2%80%9CChristine%E2%80%9D is released Christmas time of 1958, proves to be a huge hit and leads to his lengthy affair with Romy Schneider.
This makes them the darlings of the media for years. He is now a star in France with just one lead part and two very small ones behind him.
In 1960 both Rocco and his Brothers and Purple Noon are released. These are huge international hits (especially Rocco) and they quickly turn Delon in to an international superstar! It should be noted both film were directed by men who never married nor had children.
Today in Hollywood, this would be considered a sensational ascent to the very top of the food chain.
In the film world of 1957, it would be unheard of.
There is quite a story there %E2%80%93 waiting to be told!
- Alain Delon and Burt Lancaster were almost surely lovers in the late 60s.
- Burt Lancaster was gay?
- Whoa, R42/43/frau, I'm not positive of the year of my encounter with Delon at Exxpressions because I don't keep a diary. It could have been 2004, it could have been 2008, I'm not really sure. As for his size I did say he had a thick uncut cock. It was a good size, perfectly good but he wasn't massively hung.
I find the speculation about my encounter with him amusing. I think I made it clear he had on a straight porno video in the booth at the time. He didn't react to my blowjob/handjob at all, I don't even think he moaned when he came. I suspect whatever gay experiences he's had have been him being serviced, by that gangster he supposedly was with and others, myself included. It happened on a hot summer Sunday, there was never anybody else down there. His was the only booth that was occupied, door was open somewhat but it didn't seem to be something he calculated for someone to walk in. I got a very good look at him before I stepped in. He was definitely Alain Delon, the same man who I've seen in pages of HELLO! magazine in my local newspaper store that sells foreign magazines. If you believe me, fine. If you don't, frankly I don't care.
R16
- No one said he was strictly gay & did not like women R-42. However, he is bisexual by his own confession.\
\
I suspect that as well R-53.
- The guy that played Dickie Greenleaf in "Purple Noon" died a while ago.\
\
I think the woman is still alive.
- Delon cock.
http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LikzyndVj-g/SRXHt0jeWdI/AAAAAAAAnJo/_oV7RCWAzaU/s1600-h/Alain+Delona1.jpg
- Is he uncut?
- "The writer of this entertaining blog has a terrible title for it, but you can find enticing material on Alain Delon on the right side. And other juicy stuff."%0D\
%0D\
Why "terrible," R12? The webmaster for it has used the handle Poseidon for years now, used to post at imdb.com and here too we think, so he kept it in the name of the blog. One of the posts there goes into it more. He created a little "world" that he calls the underworld that is separate from the "surface." I think it''s kind of neat! And the theme extends to the names of the old posts, followers, etc. I never know what is going to be next there and love that about it.
- Great photos on this site!
http://alaindelon.tumblr.com/
- He looks gross now. Worse than the aging process, there''s something really nasty about him.
http://files.myopera.com/Ascendent/albums/676824/Alain Delon.png
- I guess he would fit on the Brits Who Age Badly thread, except he''s not a Brit.\
\
Way too much smoking, I assume.
- The Hollywood Plastic Surgery Machine has skewed the way we look at famous and formerly famous people. If he was someone standing in a cornfield in Iowa you wouldn''t raise a hackle. Face it, we all age and crumble into dust. Embrace the concept that he''s still standing up on two legs.
- Here he is as a kid. Cute:

- For my tastes, simply one of the most beautiful men ever born. Similar type of beauty is Tom Welling.
- What''s unfortunate is that he is smoking a cigarette in almost every other photo.

- "He looks gross now. Worse than the aging process, there''s something really nasty about him."\
\
That photo needs to be at the Famous Men Who Look Like Old Lesbians site or whatever it''s called.\
\
Photos as this should be enough warning how smoking destroys your looks. Delon was a flawless looking person!
- I see a bit of Jack Nicholson and a bit of John Derek in this pic.\
\
BTW, who was Rock Hudson to be criticising another guy''s hungosity? Didn''t I read that Rock wasn''t packing a Stryker piece of sizemeat either? Besides, it was pretty common knowledge that Rock like them big and blond. Alain didn''t fit that description in the least. Rock was probably jealous that he wasn''t the prettiest one in the room when Alain showed up.

- Major pussy hound. Big DeGaulle supporter.
- H aged very quickly between 1965 and 1968. I wonder what he was up to.
- I agree, R72. He began to age very quickly after "Purple Noon" in 1960. He was at the peak of his beauty then, but it didn''t last.
- interviewed by Dick Cavett:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KW91OJ5OY0M
- Cavett really was an asshole.
- "interviewed by Dick Cavett:"\
\
WOW, he was gorgeous back then. Look at that mane of hair!\
\
Dick Cavett was usually never so silly with guests, perhaps he was intimidated by Alain Delon''s great beauty!??\
\
Dick Cavett was not an asshole, R75, you clearly know nothing about him. He was light years ahead of the crap talk show hosts we have today.
- Perhaps, R76, but he was being a little snarky to Delon.
Not R75
- I believe R16.
- I''ve seen a great deal of Dick Cavett, R76, and he is always concerned with making sure everyone knows he''s smarter than whomever he is interviewing. Asshole.
- Great resource, R61. I''ve never een most of those.\
\
God bless the internet. As a baby gay in the 1970s I had to go digging through library stacks for a picture of Alain Delon.
- It''s amazing that there are 147 pages of photos at that link. I didn''t think so many existed.

%0D\
As for those picking on Delon over that one recent picture. Come on. The man is 76! Here he is at 75 in an interview (you may want to FF to @ 50 second mark) and he''s a normal, older man, but still nice looking. THANK GOD he didn''t yank his face taut and fill out his lips. That shit is getting very old, very fast. True, he would look better if he hadn''t smoked like a freight train, but compared to most men who are 3/4 century old, he''s fine.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yZxGDMVDb0&feature=related
- For fuck sake bitches he is 76 fucking years old! IMO he is still rather handsome, especially for his age. Unlike most people, he was still gorgeous up until his early sixties so give him a break. None of you will be as nice looking when you get that age.
- R-82, R-83 that last pic IS NOT from 1969, it is from I would say mid-late 70''s. Go to youtube and look up La Piscine or Jeff, which were made in 1969 to see what he looked like then.
- Lets talk about his homosex lovers.
- His English is very good! I didn''t know that.
- R86, you have no way of knowing that.\
\
And the point is he would look better if he hadn''t smoked.
- r52 hits the Delon enigma right on the head. He was unknown in 1957, obviously mixing with gays. At the 1958 Cannes festival he was also photographed by gay English photographer James Barrington (subject of a fascinating book too) who took several smouldering shots of the young Delon. \
\
Two years later he is a huge star with PURPLE NOON (Plein Soleil) by presumably gay Rene Clement followed by the Visconti films ROCCO and THE LEOPARD and THE ECLIPSE for Antonioni. This was the top of the tree back then. I also saw him in a little comedy about 3 girls bumping off a cheating boyfriend FAIBLES FEMMES, about 1959 when I was an early teen, then I loved PURPLE NOON when it came out. \
\
I prefer Belmondo now,and that other good looker Jean Sorel, but Delon has endured despite those scandals.
- director Rene Clement was gay?
- Clement''s IMDB page does not list any marriage or partner, so draw your own conclusions. I always got a gay vibe from his films (Knave of Hearts, The Sea Wall, Plein Soleil), he also directed Faye Dunaway in an amusing little thriller The House Under the Trees (or The Deadly Trap) in 1971, and a Charles Bronson thriller Rider On The Rain, but his career kind of fizzled out after the expensive war film Is Paris Burning? in 1966.
- Does ''Plein Soleil'' have much of a gay sub-text? From what I can tell, Minghella''s "Talented Mr. Ripley" has a heavier one.
- Alain with Katharine Hepburn!

- Alain would have made a great gay prince in The Lion in Winter! (Sorry, Timothy!)
- {Re:92} Not sure if Rene Clement was gay, but it is a fact that he was married to a woman, and that it was his wife Bella who helped Delon to convince him to give him the role of Tom instead of Philip in Plein Soleil, as was originally planned.You can read about it in Delon''s rather scandalous biography by Bernard Violet (2000).

- I believe I stumbled across the way to embed tumblr pics.

- Imagine a torrid love scene between Alain Delon and Catherine Deneuve when they were in their early twenties. . . I don''t believe they were ever paired together, .. but Oh La La!! .. Hollywood would have no duo to compare with those two beauties!!

- Not much there, R116
- Because he was beautiful yet cold, I compared him to a piece of porcelain bathroom fixture. It was badly translated in the America press as "beautiful toilet."
C. Deneuve
- ^lol.
- Delon is simply BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!
A Woman
- R124, are you okay with the fact that he is bisexual and likes men too?
- Delon married twice, once to Nathalie because she was pregnant, and once (much later on) to Rosalie, who was some 30 years his junior. He's never lacked for female companionship, though.
When I was very young I saw "Les tueurs de San Francisco" one day on the Dialing for Dollars time slot when I was home sick from school, and I've adored him ever since.
His politics are very right-wing, though.
- [R120], Deneuve and Delon starred in "Un flic" in 1972, but their respectives beauties were bruised a bit by then.
- Why is he right-wing?
- I don't know why his politics are the way they are, but Le Pen is a personal friend. Delon has taken an anti-immigrant position. The same is true of Brigitte Bardot.
- At the height of his beauty:

- Well, it depends on what type of anti-immigrant position it is. If some of the French are against letting extremist Muslims into the country, I can agree with that. If it's just a general anti-immigrant bias than that is something else.
I would have thought he would be open-minded since he's apparently been with men and is bisexual.
- Le Pen's National Front used to demand the deportation of all non-European immigrants from France. It had it's share of aggressive skinheads and neo-Nazis shoving people around. These days, the NF has toned it down a bit in a bid for more votes, but its platform is still racist, anti-Semitic, and anti-immigrant. It's not just radical Muslims that bother the NF.
Open-mindedness about sex doesn't always mean liberal politics. Would that it did!
- "had its share"
- [R125],Yes,it is Delon so I must share. Besides, I don't wanna marry the guy,I just wanna,you know,give him a peck on the cheek!
R124
- Tab Hunter wrote in his autobio;that he went to see "Rocco and His Brothers" 5 nights in a row.He said he was "stunned" every time by Delon's brilliance.Is that all that "stunned" you, Tab??-LOL!!!!
Anonymous
- I digress.Tab Hunter was GORGEOUS as well.He also aged quite nicely!!
R135
- He had a brief affair with Peggy Lee.
- bump
- He is so hairless. Is that natural? Did he shave?
- Thanks guys. For all the bitchin' and snark, you often expose me to cool stuff I never knew I'd missed.
Ya make me feel so cultured!

- Is 'Purple Noon' the only film he's known for in North America?
- Delon had a brief, rather disappointing, American career in the mid-1960s. No hits came of it, and he returned to France. But there were some interesting co-stars (Ann-Margret, Shirley MacLaine, Anthony Quinn, Dean Martin).
- I live in Paris. Alain Delon has been advertising hearing aids for a year or so. Sort of sad
- he's at his most beautiful in Purple noon.
- Alain Delon was absolutely gorgeous as a young actor, just incredible . I think French guys are naturally sexy with everyone and anyone. For them being sexy is in their genes , I think. I really do wish that the USA would be open to sexuality as the French are.

- This is my favourite Alain Delon photo.
