Description:
Debonair and handsome, French superstar Alain Delon was the quintessential pin-up for baby-boomers the world over. But more than just a pretty face, Delon leant his superior acting skill to some of the best dramatic thrillers France had to offer. Four are collected here: ICY FLESH (1974) On a beach in Nice, François meets the mysterious Peggy and falls in love with her. Following her to a villa, he meets Marc, a lawyer who has a strange relationship with the girl. Marc tells François that Peggy is a drug addict who violently lashes out at men who approach her. THE GYPSY (1975) Hugo Sémart (Delon), infamously nicknamed "the Gypsy", escapes from prison to bring justice to his wife's murderer, Yan Kug. But to avoid capture, Hugo and Yan?both outlaws and sworn enemies?are forced to cooperate. The two must set aside their differences in order to survive. LIKE A BOOMERANG (1976) Under the influence of drugs, a teenager, Eddy, kills a policeman. His father, Jacques, pleads extenuating circumstances and nearly succeeds in gaining the confidence of the policeman's widow. But the press reveals that Jacques is an ex-gangster who has spent time in prison. A CRIME (1993) A Crime takes place over a single night, between ten o'clock and six in the morning. The story turns around a tragedy - a magnetic pole towards which all fears and terrors converge.
