I married the woman of my dreams. If Nathalie had refused to marry me, I would have lost my mind, I would not be in the mood to live anymore.

Qu'est-ce que ça vous fait, quand vous tirez? Ah! Vous voyez bien que ça vous intéresse! Je vais vous le dire. Ça fait boum dans les oreilles.
- Alain Delon, Les Clan des Siciliens (1969)
Les Clan des Siciliens (1969) boasted three of the leading French male actors of their time in the form of Alain Delon, Jean Gabin, and Lino Venturo.
Jean Gabin is Vittorio Manalese, the head of the Sicilian Manalese clan in Paris, Alain Delon the reckless, amoral French criminal and killer Roger Sartet, who hires Vittorio’s clan to spring him from custody, and Lino Ventura Commissaire Le Goff, the man who first captured Roger, hunts Roger down and bring him to justice. Manalese partners Sartet with a gangster from New York to organise a heist. It doesn’t end well for either Sartet or Manalese with Sartet on dangerous ground having an affair with Manalese’s daughter-in-law and Goff ever closer to capturing them both.
Even in 1968, the film lined up classic detective story ingredients: mobsters, a cop hell-bent on capturing them, a sensational heist and, because there are Sicilians, a revenge of honour. With all these conventions, the film was scorned by the intellectual critics who usually despised this kind of gangster cinema that was also appealed to the taste of the populist masses. After watching it again I think the film critics were being supercilious and snobbish.
The Clan of the Sicilians is immensely enjoyable and beautifully crafted under the precise and spectacular direction as Verneuil. One of the more stunning bravura set pieces was the landing of a Boeing jumbo jet landing on a busy New York motorway. The film is a curious but happy hybrid of a traditional French detective film that also had American sensibilities. Above all it has the gorgeous music of Ennio Morricone as a soundtrack.

On 23 September 2022, German film diva Romy Schneider could have celebrated her 84th birthday.
On the morning of 29 May 1982 upon the discovery of Romy Schneider's death (aged forty-three) by her companion in their Parisian apartment, the police found a letter on her desk, with a long stroke of ink suggesting that she had collapsed from heart failure while writing, but also red wine and pills, which could suggest that she had, voluntarily or not, overdosed. Yet, public prosecutor Laurent Davenas closed the case and Schneider's body was not autopsied for he did not want `to destroy the myth' as he later explained. `Sissi was not supposed to embark on her last voyage to the Forensic Institute in Paris. I could not bring myself [...] to turn her into a carcass' .
The corpus of German film diva Romy Schneider's films consists of complete filmography, that is sixty-three films released from 1953 to 1982. Schneider was, however, propelled into stardom with the role of Empress Elisabeth of Austria — also known as Sissi — in the Sissi trilogy (Ernst Marischka, 1955, 1956, 1957), the popularity of which firmly and lastingly established her star image.
Romy Schneider was a flashy example of an unhappy woman and a brilliant actress. Michel Piccoli, a French actor and her partner in several films, once said about her: “This is an actress, peeling off her skin”. She played on the verge of a nervous breakdown, sacrificed herself for each role. Her personal life was somewhere behind, not keeping up with a woman who spoiled her health with everything she could, as if knowing that for a long time it would not last. She lived roles. There, on the screen, she felt more needed, more important, more loved.
Schneider’s image on screen and her characters within her films construct different ideologies of womanhood at particular historical moments.  She was indeed a tragic screen goddess and stayed 'untouchable' woman in a real life. Her film roles during this last phase were increasingly perceived as echoing her personal life, at the time and ever since.
Today, Schneider continues to be one of the most popular stars in the history of European cinema and she is still widely celebrated by fans, cinephiles and members of the film industry alike.
