Review of The Day of the Jackal (1973) by Jake A — 10 May 2017
This is one of the most exciting and entertaining movies I've ever watched. It's fiction - the OAS didn't hire this particular hitman to try and assassinate CDG, though they did try and kill him for sure in more direct, less professionally planned plots.
But this is the sort of historical fiction I like, with enough real events going on around it to be plausible. The movie is intricate, it requires more than one viewing to fully appreciate everything.
One of the best IMO ever made.
