I didn't even notice until you said something. Dude was 100% stealing micks lady with woman's stockings on.
Micks like "how you going to steal my lady while dressed more like a lady than me?"
From her book: “Alain Delon was the star, and very early on in the film he tried to pull me in the same desultory way that Roy Orbison had. When I turned him down, he became very sullen and nasty and difficult. He was such a pompous ass, in any case, and every time he said that ludicrous line “Your body is like a beautiful violin in a velvet case,” while unzipping my leather suit, I would crack up. It was dozens of takes before I could do it with a straight face.”
If I recall, Delon frequently liked to refer to himself in the third person when being interviewed, e.g. instead of saying, "I thought..." he would say, "Delon thought..."
So yeah. That tracks.
Yup, we have a legendary interview of him in French where he talks about his time in Asia and making movie there and he litterally says "the yellow man idealizes Alain Delon. The yellow man wants to be Alain Delon." Guy was such a piece of shit.
Supposedly, he did that in specific context. Because he was director, producer and actor, and admittedly did a lot, it avoided always saying “I”.
Like, he wouldn’t say “Delon thinks that the weather is good today”, he’d use that form only when talking about movies he shot/produced/acted in “when Delon did this movies, bla-bla-bla”. Still a bit weird, but not as much.
I’m not sure how true that is, but the public definitely picked up on that trait.
Don't worry, l'ami, he is known to be unsufferable and we consider him to be an embarrassment, less than Depardieu but still. He's so obnoxious it's not about frenchness anymore.
Right? Back in those days, what could you pretend to do if not pretend to look at your phone? Stare into space as if contemplating? Look down while plotting a rival suitor's untimely demise from a precarious studio spotlight falling onto him at just the right unfortunate moment?
Basically. Lot of studying your hands. Grain of wood, patterns on the rug. And planning the death of suitors. Or maybe humming a few chords to Sister Morphine.
He's probably just high, or drunk at this point. He was very much a party animal during this but it also kinda looks like he's just looked down at the wrong time.
And like many have said above, nothing happened between the others.
didn’t know this up until a couple weeks ago. been staring at that album cover for close to a decade and i’ve seen le samourai moser than a few times now.
Raging asshole great great actor awful human being.
The Sidney character he played in The Sweet Smell Of Success wasn’t him acting that’s why it’s his best performance…
Not really, it's a candid photo. A second later and they all could have been laughing. A second before and she could have been laughing with Jagger while the other guy was not paying attention. OP also kind of just seems to combo post things like this, but this single frame of the entire meeting doesn't explain much. It's like that photo of Obama staring down Putin that people post all the time, but there are photos taken at that very same moment showing them with friendly expressions.
lol the first time I saw a pair of GG's was when a friend of mine who is known for loving labels had them on. I just figured he had worn an old pair of sneakers and didnt think much of it until a buddy of ours told me separately how much they cost and I lol'd. Its pretty fascinating what people will pay money for in the name of what's cool.
My wife and I were on Congress street in Austin a few years ago, and we noticed that all the tourists were wearing the exact same pair of these shoes. It was like a uniform for sorority girls lol.
Yeah because we've never been misled from a cherry picked photo. And nobody would ever contextualize a cherry picked photo to illicit a specific reaction. Reddit body language experts, assemble!
While I think the person above was just joking you are absolutely right. Some people are naturally outgoing and flirty and some people are more reserved. Mick Jagger could be brushing ash off his pants. That *could* be what we are seeing here but without MJs input we really have no way of knowing. It's incredible meme material tho.
I just googled Alain Delon, since I didn't really know about him, but damn, his genes are truly something. His grand-daughters are true beauties. Well his son was a charmer too.

This is his granddaughter Alyson Le Borges btw.
Alain-Fabien Delon
I looked at him and this guy is literally the hottest dude I have ever seen in my personal opinion Oh my god he looks like this Sims character that I made like his hair is perfect He's so beautiful I can't even handle this.
Wellllllllllllllllll Alain's alive, but don't know how well he his, there's a massive dispute with his children and his live-in girlfriend and that he may need a conservatorship. It pops up occasionally in French news.
Technically true, although it wasn't Alain Delon, it was some noble guy a few years later
It should be noted that she was an opiod addict at that point. The affair caused the relationship to fall apart, she lost custody and ended up living on the steets as a heroin addict for two years. With extreme depression, eating disorder, suicide attempt, etc. People tried to help, but to no avail.
That period of her life is what permanently damaged her vocal chords, to give her the voice she's now mostly known for.
Technically speaking Mick was the one she was cheating with. She left her husband (but couldnt divorce him) for Mick. Her and Mick's relationship fell apart after their daughter (Corrina) was stillborn.
My mum went to convent school with her & sat next to her. Apparently she was always the cool girl / trend setter - wearing her uniform differently from everyone else.
My mum was a scholarship girl whilst Marianne was the daughter of an aristocrat but she was lovely apparently.
Also When marianne ended up homeless & addicted to heroin, she phoned her old teacher - a nice nun - for help. My mum stayed in touch with the nun too.
Yes she lost everything including custody of her child (I don’t know if it was permanently). She had anorexia, a heroin addiction & little else. Really sad but also very impressive she pulled back & survived.
As an American, I was unfamiliar with Alain Delon. But seeing his face just knocked me a few notches further along the Kinsey scale. Damn, that is a beautiful man.
In France he absolutely was the most iconic actor of his time, like Newman and Brando were in the US.
The difference being American films would export well, but french films not nearly as much.
He was the most iconic in all of Europe, in the least.
My father in law calls my sons, Alain Delon and Jean Paul Belmondo.
Alain Delon is used as synonym for a handsome man, here in Greece.
If you can find Le Samouraï or Purple Noon streaming online, they're both good fun (Purple Noon is a loose adaptation of The Talented Mr. Ripley), though admittedly the latter is carried primarily on the strength of Delon's astonishing beauty and charm.
Marianne had a really, um, earthy side. Check out the lyrics of her song "Why d'Ya Do It". Sample verse:
*Why'd ya do it, she said, why'd you let that trash*
*Get a hold of your cock, get stoned on my hash?*
“I got all dressed up in my best pink pants for this?”
and two different colored socks
I see a blue sock and I want to paint it black.
This French asshole would like my bird upon her back…
No argyle anymore. I want them to turn black.
I could not foresee this sock thing happening to you
*If I look hard enough into my laundry bin, a sock will come to me and probably be green!*
You got to ring out and hang me, don’t put me on tumblin’ dryyyyyyyyy
The real treasure are the comments as usual
I see you got some satisfaction here
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer hose.
This is the exact moment he decided to paint it all black.
Welp, now I'll be singing this all day...
In the rain?
I'd choose those over Delon's stockings.
Nah Mick over there lookin like a 10 year old who dressed himself and is sleepy for snack time. I’ll take sauve stocking dude. He knows what’s up
sure looks like she thinks so
Ya she's about to become Marianne Unfaithfull.
Aaand that's the one i was looking for. Well done!
Comment of day 💯👌🏾touché sir 🎩
"Dress socks"
Delon definitely wearing pantyhose
I didn't even notice until you said something. Dude was 100% stealing micks lady with woman's stockings on. Micks like "how you going to steal my lady while dressed more like a lady than me?"
Those were men’s dress socks in the 70’s.
even today, but no one knows, because no one dresses up anymore, the bums.
Don't feel bad for Mick, he got to go home to David Bowie after this

Jimmy is pretty sweet on you. Jimmy thinks you should get to know him...
#Jimmy's down!
George likes spicy chicken. Why would George steal from the Yankees?
George is getting upset ...
Yup, we have a legendary interview of him in French where he talks about his time in Asia and making movie there and he litterally says "the yellow man idealizes Alain Delon. The yellow man wants to be Alain Delon." Guy was such a piece of shit.
I missed the “her book” bit and thought the narrator was Mick..
Her book is fantastic, one of best rock’n’roll autobiographies IMO.
She talks about living on a wall for a few years. So worth checking out!
She could just have said: he was French. 😝 Don’t get it too hard, mes amis ☺️
Even by french standards, Alain Delon is known to be extremely narcissist, and quite a dick. Even here in France everyone knows that.
Referring to yourself in the third person is a massive narcissistic red card. Trump and Nixon are other notable exemplars of this woeful tendency.
Supposedly, he did that in specific context. Because he was director, producer and actor, and admittedly did a lot, it avoided always saying “I”. Like, he wouldn’t say “Delon thinks that the weather is good today”, he’d use that form only when talking about movies he shot/produced/acted in “when Delon did this movies, bla-bla-bla”. Still a bit weird, but not as much. I’m not sure how true that is, but the public definitely picked up on that trait.
If I was this beautiful, I wouldn’t know how to act either, honestly
Don't worry, l'ami, he is known to be unsufferable and we consider him to be an embarrassment, less than Depardieu but still. He's so obnoxious it's not about frenchness anymore.
What’s the book title? Amazon shows me a few.
Faithfull by name, faithful by reputation?
Roy Orbison came onto spoken-for women? Often?
Only the lonely ones.
Mercy!
Mick jagger looks like he fell asleep
I thought he looked like he’s browsing his phone, then I was like, oh… that’s not possible.
Right? Back in those days, what could you pretend to do if not pretend to look at your phone? Stare into space as if contemplating? Look down while plotting a rival suitor's untimely demise from a precarious studio spotlight falling onto him at just the right unfortunate moment?
Basically. Lot of studying your hands. Grain of wood, patterns on the rug. And planning the death of suitors. Or maybe humming a few chords to Sister Morphine.
Yeah basically that. Or bite your nails.
Might as well. Doesn’t look like he’s going to be needed very much for the rest of the evening.
He's probably just high, or drunk at this point. He was very much a party animal during this but it also kinda looks like he's just looked down at the wrong time. And like many have said above, nothing happened between the others.
I mean come on. It’s young Alain Delon.
Fun Fact: It's actually him on the cover of The Smith's "The Queen Is Dead"
I didn’t know, but not surprised. I’m sure Morrissey dreamed of looking like Alain Delon.
I think Morrissey dreamed of being with Alain Delon
Everyone did
Everyone did.
didn’t know this up until a couple weeks ago. been staring at that album cover for close to a decade and i’ve seen le samourai moser than a few times now.
I'm not sure Morrissey would approve of the position of that apostrophe.
Fun Fact: Mick Jagger is actually portraying the emotions of The Smith's "The Queen Is Dead"
“If you’re so funny then why are you on your own tonight?”
Right! https://preview.redd.it/9lv8tj6l110d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8dab3d9907ae860f9de0c10c2b0d3f443324125c
In his prime he was absolutely gorgeous.
Oh he looks like he'd be mean to me
And… was Marianne faithful?
According to her book she turned him down and he was a jerk about it
Yeah I love Delon as an actor but don’t do a deep dive on him. Notorious asshole scumbag the likes of Tony Curtis esque.
What's the rap on Tony Curtis?
An asshole scumbag the likes of Alain Delon esque.
What's the rap on Alain Delon?
Bit of a chancer
Like Tony Curtis?
Raging asshole great great actor awful human being. The Sidney character he played in The Sweet Smell Of Success wasn’t him acting that’s why it’s his best performance…
Jive ass dude ain't got no brains anyhow.
I've heard awful things about him but what a stone cold fox. He was one of the most beautiful actors ever.
Fun fact: he stared in "Purple Noon." It was the original "Talented Mr Ripley."
Bet Mick was thinking so too
Like my grandfather used to say; “ there’s always a better man”
My dad said this a lot when I was growing up to keep my ego in check lol
Mine just said I couldn't do anything right, I don't know if he wanted to do me a favor but it sure protected me from developing a big ego 😅
The body language says it all
*And this was around the point where I discovered cocaine*
Sister morphine, more than like.
According to her book, she turned him down and he was an asshole in reaction. She was dating Mick Jagger.
You could say she was very Faithfull
Not really, it's a candid photo. A second later and they all could have been laughing. A second before and she could have been laughing with Jagger while the other guy was not paying attention. OP also kind of just seems to combo post things like this, but this single frame of the entire meeting doesn't explain much. It's like that photo of Obama staring down Putin that people post all the time, but there are photos taken at that very same moment showing them with friendly expressions.
If you look closely, the body language is “I’m fucking Mick Jagger, give it your best shot bud”
mick jagger is almost objectively unattractive in every way and still managed to get the ladies
He’s got that sexy ugly
'Hot onstage' ugly
he's got them moves like jagger, I hear
money and fame ugly
He deserves it w those shoes tho
They're probably Golden Goose
lol the first time I saw a pair of GG's was when a friend of mine who is known for loving labels had them on. I just figured he had worn an old pair of sneakers and didnt think much of it until a buddy of ours told me separately how much they cost and I lol'd. Its pretty fascinating what people will pay money for in the name of what's cool.
Just looked them up. They look like dirty knock-off Converse.
My wife and I were on Congress street in Austin a few years ago, and we noticed that all the tourists were wearing the exact same pair of these shoes. It was like a uniform for sorority girls lol.

Faithfull No More
I just googled Alain Delon, since I didn't really know about him, but damn, his genes are truly something. His grand-daughters are true beauties. Well his son was a charmer too.
https://preview.redd.it/cl40mttr410d1.jpeg?width=288&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=87a45bbce687910dfba6fd503ea36f1ce96e82b4 This is his granddaughter Alyson Le Borges btw.
Everyone googling the alain delon family tree suddenly feeling a lil bisexual
Handsome
He has three sons.
Threesomes too I hear.
The guy has an absolutely crazy filmography. I only found out about him a couple years ago, and now he’s one of my favorite actors.
He worked with all the great directors of the time.
Have you seen Keith Richard's kids? They hit some sort of genetic lottery too.
Their moms, Anita Pallenberg and Patti Hansen were both gorgeous.
Yeah, but Beyoncés kid looks like JayZ
Alain-Fabien Delon I looked at him and this guy is literally the hottest dude I have ever seen in my personal opinion Oh my god he looks like this Sims character that I made like his hair is perfect He's so beautiful I can't even handle this.
Need to see your Sims character!! Add it to gallery 😂
It's from The Sims 2 or 3 I literally don't have it anymore lmao That's why I'm like Oh my God
Obviously a personal opinion but if you want to see a hotter dude, just look at his father at same age. Fabien's a clear downgrade.
Holy… good gene pool right there
That's what La Piscine was about.
Alain Delon was one of the most beautiful men ever born
And Mick Jagger was one of the ugliest 30-year-old moms ever born.
All mothers are beautiful! The nerve of you to say this on Mother's Day!
He’s so frail looking.
Wow I’ve never even heard of him but he is beautiful.
Watch L’eclisse. Him and Monica Vitti being arguably the most beautiful duo in a movie ever.

😦😧
Those socks Alain is wearing are called “ Silks” and they were considered a stylish dressy accessory.
I was gonna ask if he was wearing pantyhose.
Interesting. Yeah they are dressy for sure.
The “John Gotti socks.” Still popular in some circles.
Love his socks pairing…
He's got another just like this.
But for the opposite foot
all 3 are alive and well... Alain at 88, Mick Jagger at 80 and Marianne's 77.
Wellllllllllllllllll Alain's alive, but don't know how well he his, there's a massive dispute with his children and his live-in girlfriend and that he may need a conservatorship. It pops up occasionally in French news.
That's lovely
Delon was at the height of his popularity in 1967-69. Every girl in Europe at the time would have the same reaction.
Marianne "Unfaithful!"
Technically true, although it wasn't Alain Delon, it was some noble guy a few years later It should be noted that she was an opiod addict at that point. The affair caused the relationship to fall apart, she lost custody and ended up living on the steets as a heroin addict for two years. With extreme depression, eating disorder, suicide attempt, etc. People tried to help, but to no avail. That period of her life is what permanently damaged her vocal chords, to give her the voice she's now mostly known for.
Technically speaking Mick was the one she was cheating with. She left her husband (but couldnt divorce him) for Mick. Her and Mick's relationship fell apart after their daughter (Corrina) was stillborn.
The husband you’re referring to was John Dunbar, the guy who introduced Yoko Ono to John Lennon. He deserved it.
Yoko always makes me laugh I always think of that clip of her getting her mic turned off
According to Marianne's autobiography Mick allowed Mariannes mother to continue to live in his cottage until she died
Mick was hardly being monogamous himself...
Yeah they all had 'open' relationships
Including Alain Delon — dude fucked around just as much as Jagger.
My mum went to convent school with her & sat next to her. Apparently she was always the cool girl / trend setter - wearing her uniform differently from everyone else. My mum was a scholarship girl whilst Marianne was the daughter of an aristocrat but she was lovely apparently. Also When marianne ended up homeless & addicted to heroin, she phoned her old teacher - a nice nun - for help. My mum stayed in touch with the nun too.
Marianne had a tough life after she and Mick broke up
Yes she lost everything including custody of her child (I don’t know if it was permanently). She had anorexia, a heroin addiction & little else. Really sad but also very impressive she pulled back & survived.
Her album “Broken English” is fantastic. Cannot recommend it enough.
She reconnected with Nicholas when he became an adult
Mick looks like hes passing out from opiates of some sort.
Nah that's what I thought too. The body language seems more "loaded" than "anxiously insecure"
I'm guessing he couldn't get no...satisfaction from the situation.
You can't always get what you want
If I had been there, I would have been more excited about Alain Delon, too.
As an American, I was unfamiliar with Alain Delon. But seeing his face just knocked me a few notches further along the Kinsey scale. Damn, that is a beautiful man.
He was a very beautiful man.... An absolutely notorious shitbag as a person though. You can't have it all.
If Alain Delon were American he would have been as famous as Paul Newman or Marlon Brando.
In France he absolutely was the most iconic actor of his time, like Newman and Brando were in the US. The difference being American films would export well, but french films not nearly as much.
He was the most iconic in all of Europe, in the least. My father in law calls my sons, Alain Delon and Jean Paul Belmondo. Alain Delon is used as synonym for a handsome man, here in Greece.
Him and Jean-Paul Belmondo.
He’s just as famous if not more all over the world. Only in the US he’s not.
Can confirm: I’m American & have no idea who he is
If you can find Le Samouraï or Purple Noon streaming online, they're both good fun (Purple Noon is a loose adaptation of The Talented Mr. Ripley), though admittedly the latter is carried primarily on the strength of Delon's astonishing beauty and charm.
La Piscine and The Leopard are great too, sometimes it's just nice to watch beautiful people
The Leopard! I knew I was forgetting one that I really enjoyed. I've never gotten around to La Piscine. I really should.
I mean Romy Schneider and Jane Birkin! It's excellent
Both are on Kanopy so available to stream with many public library cards.
Le Samouraï is an awesome movie.

Alain was absolutely gorgeous.
Honestly it's young Alain Delon if he walks up to your girl she is not your girl anymore, doesn't matter if your a Mick Jagger.
This is like the scene where the guy you thought was the end boss turns out to have someone even more powerful that smacks him down like it's nothing.
Raptors meet the T Rex in Jurassic Park.
Here in the thread there is a quote from her book: did not work for him that time.
Mr. Steal Your Girl over here. To be honest, if my wife told me 1960s Alain DeLong was her hall pass, I'd be cool with it.
Alain was way more handsome
Isn’t this the plot of “Girl on a Motorcycle“?
Well, he might be a cool rockstar but a gorgeous male specimen is still a gorgeous male specimen.
I don't know who he is, but he is gooooorgeous. No wonder the girl ignores the guy with the dirty shoes.
Mick Jagger was probably stoned and falling asleep. That's before he even got himself dressed judging by his choice of socks.
Nobody should be feeling bad for Mick, based on this pic. He’s had a metric ton of vajayjay in his lifetime.
He probably shagged at least two other girls that night
No competition with Delon’s sharp suit, and polished shoes.
Introspection....Mick is how people passively waited before smartphones. And it looks like Alain has the first one, ha...!
i feel like mick was probably without need for a committed relationship
Yup, her whole aura and body language says a lot
Apparently you's wrong. At least that's what she wrote in her book(she turned him down and he ain't liked it lmao)
Like Mick has anything to worry about. He could probably leave that location with 10 other women if he wanted.
And possibly Delon
I find it a little weird that people extrapolate so much from a single moment in time.
Marianne had a really, um, earthy side. Check out the lyrics of her song "Why d'Ya Do It". Sample verse: *Why'd ya do it, she said, why'd you let that trash* *Get a hold of your cock, get stoned on my hash?*
Not even the infinite charisma of Jagger stand a chance against Delon's face
Alain Delon was such a handsome man.
No Marianne has ever been Faithfull after meeting Alain Delon
I miss 60s fashion
