The Dance is over, Alain Delon…

French legend actor Alain Delon passed away today, Sunday, August 18, at the age of 88, his three children announced Sunday morning in a joint press release sent to AFP. “Alain Fabien, Anouchka, Anthony and Loubo (his dog) are immensely sad to announce the departure of his father. He passed away peacefully at his home in Douchy, surrounded by his three children and his family. They requested respect for the intimacy of the immense pain of grief."

Claudia Cardinale through her official IG account published a heartfelt message:

"They ask me for words but the sadness is too intense. I join the pain of their children, their loved ones, their fans… The dance is over. Tancredi has gone up to dance with the stars… Forever yours, Angelica".

Claudia and Alain met for first time in 1959 at a gala in Rome, when Claudia was starting out in the world of cinema and they started a beautiful friendship:

Their first film together was "Rocco and his brothers" in 1960:

Then both met again on the recording set of "Il gattopardo" in 1963 as the leading couple "Tancredi and Angelica":

And in 1966 they shared scenes again in "Lost Command":

A friendship that lasted from 1959 until today 2024 and that will always be eternal.

For my part, the departure of this legend called Alain Delon hurt me a lot, I woke up learning of his departure and it was inevitable to cry; I had to make this small tribute to Alain yes or yes because he was a great friend to Claudia, his departure hurt me a lot but I am consoled that Alain was reunited with the people he loved so much, especially the beautiful Romy Schneider, the great love of his life.

"I will leave this world without regret. Life no longer has anything to offer, I have seen it all, I have experienced it all. But above all I hate the current era. Everything is false, everything has been replaced, there is no respect for the word given, now the only thing that matters is money and wealth! I know I will leave this world without regrets!" - - Alain Delon.

"Storm Cloud"

Obvious difference with Archie working to meet Veronica's demand and Betty cheerfully drops on by. Move into the narrative stories, and they drop implied somethings.

Veronica won't stand that!

Tous les garçons et les filles (1962), Le Premier Bonheur du jour (1963), Mon amie la rose (1964), L'amitié (1965), La maison où j'ai grandi (1966), Ma jeunesse fout le camp… (1967), Comment te dire adieu (1968), Françoise Hardy

There’s a tendency to assume all French music (and all French people, for that matter), are elegant and sophisticated, an assumption which is of course severely mistaken and rather silly, though several cultural figures have, over the years, fed it. Françoise Hardy is one of those cool Frenchies, with her classic sort of presented Frenchness – but she was also atypical. Hardy’s opening decade shows her distinction from the start, the extent to which her style was not just classier and less coquettish than most yé-yé girls but also unforcedly refined. How could one listen to this and not be seduced by a sense of sophistication? Perhaps I’ll be made a Francophile yet.

Pick(s): ‘Le temps de l’amour’, ‘Nous tous’, ‘Je veux qu’il revienne’, ‘Ce n’est pas un rêve’, ‘Je changerais d’avis (se telefonado)’, ‘Voilá’, ‘Comment te dire adieu’
