l. – Alain Delon, Christine, France-Italy, 1958. Romy Schneider was signed for her first French film for a then staggering 400,000 Francs. Who should be her handsome young lover? Guers, Bernard Dhéran, Jacques Toja were talked of – even Roger Moore. However, it was Delon (who got 75,000 Francs) and greeted Romy with a huge bouquet of red roses at Orly airport on April 10, 1958 – the start of the impossible love story of Delon and “ma pupelle,” erupting on and off her 1982 death.
