RIP

Merely an observation but the way wiki lists important deaths is kind of weird sometimes. It lists the would be assassin of Trump even though he didn't actually kill him and it will also name animals if they are of some significance. This seems to be mostly racing horses.

Alain Delon

[rischka]

and i just watched borsalino (and le samourai a few months ago?) and had checked if he was still with us. he was 88

this photo from cannes 2019 - he'd been turning down movie roles for years since he'd lost his beauty



a misogynist asshole who supported jean le pen, he's been a virtual recluse for years while his children battle in the press. i didn't even know he had a son with nico that he never acknowledged who died of an overdose last year. i hope his children find peace

Delon also made headlines in February of this year when French police seized 72 firearms and 3,000 rounds of ammunition from his home. Prosecutors said he did not have a gun licence.

An icon who starred in several personal favorites. Fitting though that he died in the town of Douchy.

One of my favourite Letterboxd reviews: "It's a shame [that] Alain Delon is alive and fascist when he could be sexy and dead."
