November 8th was Alain Delon's birthday and he just turned 80 years old and is still a style icon having perfect looks and talent all in one incredible package. His talents and charm allowed him to take on the romantic leads as well as his well-known gangster roles while shining brightly in suspense and dramatic films such as the original French version of the Matt Damon film "The Talented Mr. Ripley", with the French movie called in English "Purple Noon" and Alain played the lead character Tom Ripley.
Pictured below could be a current photo, his perfect looks and simple style lasts through the decades as he is pictured in 1965 in San Francisco filming "Once a Thief", a wonderful film with Ann-Margret.
Alain was always a lover of horses and owned racing stock and it's really difficult to look away once Alain is in the room. I think he has found his match in this incredible photo of Alain riding the black horse, absolute perfection in one photo is just a bit difficult to absorb all at once. Perfect form in the saddle with Alain just achieving perfection in his looks, style, and ability on horseback. Feel free to take your time and gaze upon the image. I know I will.
Oh, no, we are not done gazing upon the perfect looks and style of Alain.
Looking for some suggestions for your own Alain Delon film fest? Any one of his films will delight you but here are a few of my suggestions as we head into the holiday season and you might have some time at home to sit by the fireplace and watch some classic films. Well, Alain is just a few clicks away as you slide his films into your favorite movie player and sit back and enjoy. You won't be disappointed.
His style is timeless and can be duplicated today with ease as we celebrate the talented Mr. Delon.
