Alain Delon - The Last of the Giants - The Last of the Sicilian Clan

Alain Delon, an icon of French cinema, was much more than just an actor. Born on November 8, 1935 in Sceaux, a suburb of Paris, he grew up in modest circumstances, an environment that forged in him a determination and strength of character that would later become his signature. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Delon never attended drama school. He was self-taught, a natural, raw genius that the cameras immediately captured. His screen presence, magnified by his charm and beauty, made him an international star and one of the most respected actors of his time.
