Romy Schneider: Alain Delon
built 657 days ago
Laut Spiegel-Bericht zum Todestage von Romy Schneider (Die verletzliche Diva) war Romy eine nymphomanisch, teils sexsüchtig veranlagte Frau, die das jedoch nie als Krankheit auffasste. Die Frage, warum sie das nie als psychische Krankheit auffasste, blieb jedoch in diesem Artikel ungeklärt, ebenso ob ihr nymphomanisches Verhalten (Wie Alain Delon, liebte Romy Schneide Männer und Frauen - Delon/Schneider führten diesbezüglich eher eine offene Beziehung) sie deshalb nicht beziehungsgestört und bindungsfähig machte. Sie trennte sich ja immer wieder. Die Frage steht natürlich auch, ob ihr Privatleben so sein musste, damit sie als Künstlerin so erfolgreich in den französischen Filmen Gefühl, Erotik und Charakterdarstellung zu versprühen. Wer kennt hierfür genauere Informationen ?

Schneider's return to the screen began with her debut on the Paris stage with Delon in 'Tis Pity She's a Whore, an Elizabethan drama in translation that required Schneider to play her part in French, which was still unfamiliar to her. The production, in the hands of a famously formidable Italian stage and screen director Luchino Visconti, was a hit with critics and theater-goers, and led Visconti to cast her in Boccaccio '70. This was a trilogy of stories involving some salacious romantic intrigues, with Anita Ekberg and Sophia Loren playing the two other roles in segments directed by renowned Italian filmmakers Federico Fellini and Vittorio de Sica. The film was a terrific success across Europe and was released in North America as well. In her story, Schneider played a contessa who discovers that her husband regularly hires costly prostitutes and decides to fool him once herself.

It was in 1958 during work on the French-Italian coproduction Christine that Schneider met the French actor Alain Delon (1935- ). The Austrian-French couple began a stormy affair and Schneider soon moved to Paris to live with Delon. They were engaged to be married (and Romy was in Hollywood) when Delon left her for another woman in 1963. Despite the painful breakup, they remained friends until Romy's death, and Delon was probably the greatest love in her life. One of Schneider's best films, La Piscine/The Swimming Pool (1969) later reunited the two on screen. But it was Romy Schneider's performance in Luchino Visconti's 1961 film Boccaccio 70 that finally caught Hollywood's serious attention.

Schneider went back to France around 1966. Though she continued to appear in the occasional French film with Delon, their romance cooled and he was rumored to have ended it by sending her a single rose. She wed actor and director Harry Meyen-Haubenstock in 1966, with whom she had a son, but they were divorced by 1975, and in Europe's celebrity magazines Schneider was regularly deemed unlucky in love by the press. Her personal life became the subject of tabloid fodder, with even a miscarriage making headlines, but Schneider gave birth to a second child, Sarah, in 1977 with her new husband, photographer Daniel Biasini.

Schneider soon starred in Christine (1958), a remake of Max Ophüls's 1933 film Liebelei (itself based upon a play by Arthur Schnitzler). It was during the filming of Christine that Schneider fell in love with French actor Alain Delon, who co-starred in the movie. She left Germany to join him in Paris. Schneider became engaged to Delon in 1959.

Schneider's private life was often overshadowed by personal tragedy. Her parents divorced in 1945 when she was still a young child. In addition to her breakup with Delon, she had two failed marriages, and her 14-year-old son David Christopher (with husband Harry Meyen) died in an accident just a year before her own death in Paris in 1982.
