Alain Delon and the Beauty of Evil
A few months ago, I went to a screening of Jean-Pierre Melville's classic *Le Samuraï* (1967), staring a young Alain Delon. No one could have known at the time of the screening that Delon would pass away just a few weeks later on the 18th of August at the age of 88. Since then, I have watched several of his films, and collectively they trouble my soul with many questions about the relationship between evil and beauty. It's beginning to disturb my Platonic sleep.
