Fred Zinnemann's The Day of the Jackal is a sensibly engineered thriller about the professional killer hired to kill the French President. The smart script, unforgettable performances, and raw portrayal of espionage have made this one of the greatest thrillers ever made. This film's trace can be seen in many modern-day spying stories.
