Alain Delon no longer drinks double bourbon

Alain Delon, the last superstar of the golden age of French cinema and one of the iconic film actors for the boomer generation in continental Europe and, thanks to Soviet film distribution policies, also in the former USSR, has died at the age of 88.

Once called the most handsome man in European cinema, Delon was someone many men dreamed of being and someone many women longed to be by their side. For the French, Delon remains the embodiment of the cinematic macho man who captivated Europe during the revolutionary 1960s. He captivated audiences in such cinematic masterpieces as "The Leopard," "Rocco and His Brothers," "Farewell, Friend!" and others. His film portrayals weren't just roles—they were true symbols of the era, reflections of aspirations and hopes.
