Alain Delon passed away this Sunday at the age of 88. In the flood of tributes paid to the iconic actor, some of the most delicious forgotten sequences.
Alain Delon is no more. The sacred monster of French cinema passed away during the night from Saturday to Sunday, peacefully according to his children in his home in Douchy-Montcorbon. He was 88 years old. Beyond his filmography, which has gone down in history, the dark actor will have distilled here and there exceptional slices of life. In keeping with his unfathomable character.
Amidst the tributes, forgotten, even unsuspected, archive images are flourishing on the Web on this day of mourning. Like this visibly improvised meeting between the monument and a budding Karim Benzema, a young footballer whose talent already suggested a bright future.
“There is no new Zidane”
” I’m 52 years older than you, so listen to me, live life to the fullest, enjoy it, because it goes by fast. Bite! Bite! “, said a theatrical Alain Delon facing a seemingly intimidated KB9. A sequence of rare authenticity punctuated by a grandiose conclusion.
” Last thing: there is no new Delon, no new Belmondo, no new Zidane, there is Benzema! And Delon! » The 2022 Ballon d’Or will certainly have taken good note. Given his sparkling career at Real Madrid in particular.
