One of the all-time great suspense thrillers is now on Netflix: The Day of the Jackal (1973--ignore the Bruce Willis remake). This crackling story of a nameless killer stalking French president Charles De Gaulle is an amazing exercise in deliberate, clockwork-precision film-making as a very mundane police detective matches wits with the worlds best assassin, played to chilly perfection by Edward Fox. The most impressive accomplishment is that, even though we know how it has to end, watching the cat-and-mouse game is just as engaging as if we had no idea of the actual history. Simply not to be missed. An A+ https://youtube/watch?v=h6xMnTPEzPo
