Watch OneShot: Alain Delon At Cannes, Yesterday And Today

The 2019 Cannes film festival will celebrate legendary French actor Alain Delon with an honorary Palme d'Or. At the age of 83, Delon continues to attract a generous dose of controversy for his homophobic views, accusations of domestic abuse and longtime friendship with founder of France's far-right party National Front, Jean-Marie Le Pen. But in Cannes the focus will be on his acting exploits in such classics as "Purple Noon" and "The Leopard."

This OneShot is part of a series with the French public audiovisual institute INA from their #Cannes photographic archives. Taken in 1962, the image features Delon at the age of 26 ... alongside another emerging screen legend, from Italy: Sophia Loren!

OneShot is a new digital format to tell the story of a single photograph in an immersive one-minute video.

I can feel the earthquake. Or at least, I think I can, because the ceiling lamp isn’t moving. I run upstairs in a frenzy to check on my son. He is sound asleep.

My husband is asleep, too. He hasn’t felt the earthquake, but he has heard me move about. Of course he has.
