Vidiots celebrates the life and legacy of the brilliant, and impossibly beautiful Alain Delon with a screening of Jean-Pierre Melville’s effortlessly cool gangster classic Le samouraï. In this endlessly stylish 1960s French send-off to the American gangster film, Delon plays Jef Costello, a fedora-clad private assassin caught between gangsters and the cops.
The French answer to James Dean, Alain Delon was a gorgeous fixture in European cinema for over 60 years, working with cinematic masters Luchino Visconti, Louis Malle, René Clement, and Michelangelo Antonioni to name a few. An international sex symbol, a writer, producer, director, and singer, Delon has permanently altered the fabric of cinema.
