Definitely The Leopard. I'd really like to see Mr. Klein.

Yes I agree Mr Klein was last shown 12-14 years ago,i wish TCM not be lazy, A good selection for the curious ;Mélodie en sous Sol,Le Clan Des Siciiens et Peur sur la Ville all with Gabin L'homme Pressé 1977 la Piscine 1968 Le Cercle rouge and Un Flic 1972 with JP Melville directing any of these films would be better than Once a thief Yellow RR,Texas across the river etc but Rocco,Eclisse Hopefully Purple Noon and The Samurai should be there.He made a lot of good films tribute should start in prime time ending at 6am.The 2 Visconti features are 3nhours plus each...

The dog has separation anxiety for anyone interested and his reasoning is his death will be too unbearable for it so the dog should be mercy killed. The reporting on this topic makes it sound like Alain Delon is an Egyptian pharoah of old who wants his pets and wives buried alive with him.

My favourite Delon performance is in Rocco and His Brothers (1960).

Another really good performance by Delon is his Baron de Charlus in Swann In Love (1984).

Some time ago I watched Zorro based on your recommendation and I liked it, I think it's a fun movie.
As for other Delon movies, I haven't seen them in a long time, but I remember I liked Rocco and his Brothers, Le Samurai, Borsalino, and The Sicilian Clan. Maybe I should see them again soon.
When in doubt, have another one.

Not pictured but they also have Schlondorff’s Swann in Love which might be my favorite.

Yes, below is the full "Starring Alain Delon" collection.

It's great how The Criterion Channel was able to put this together so quickly.
Some of the titles may be part of their permanent streaming library.

I wish that Spirits of the Dead were divided by episodes so you could only watch the William Wilson segment if you wanted to. I know that is a strange thing to complain about.
