French cinema legend Alain Delon passed away at the age of 88, prompting a wave of tributes from figures such as French President Emmanuel Macron, who called him a 'French monument'. Delon's career spanned six decades and nearly 100 films, known for his charismatic and enigmatic portrayals of both heroes and anti-heroes.
