The Day of the Jackal by Frederick Forsyth

Wolfgang Peterson's 'In The Line of Fire' with Clint Eastwood and John Malkovich seems to be the best exception and after that, I don't anyone has matched this movie. If there another movie that could ever match or get close to the same level of ferocious intensity of this movie has. Well-known director Fred Zinnenmen (the original 'High Noon' and 'From Here to Eternity') handles the film like a picture frame, keeping it clean and avoiding any of the typical Hollywood methods, especially the climax. The movie is based on the novel written by Frederick Forsyth ('The Dogs of War', 'The Fourth Protocol') and the adaption made by Kenneth Ross is remarkably accurate and retains mostly of the mind-numbing suspense. Once the word gets out, a noble Paris detective, Claude Lebel (Michael Lonsdale) is chosen by his superiors to apprehend the Jackal before he can pull off the assassination. And after the last attempt on DeGaulle went undone, an Englishman who is only known as the Jackal (Edward Fox) is hired to finish the job even though he wants to do it his way. are determined more than ever to take out the current president, General Charles De Gaulle, at any cost.
