Narrative
The jackal is an elusive assassin who makes his living by pulling off hits for the highest fee. He soon meets his match in a tenacious British intelligence officer who follows him on a thrilling cat-and-mouse chase across Europe.. “Day of the Jackal”; the novel took place in 1963 and involved an assassination attempt on the then president of France, Charles de Gaulle.
Remake of The Day of the Jackal (1973)
I noticed the strong comment from “Where I went wrong”. Redmayne’s cast was the perfect choice for this remake of a classic. The big mistake was casting the female lead for Lashana Lynch, the MI6 agent.

The story and production were perfect for me and kept me glued to the action scenes with Redmayne. I was tempted to fast forward all the Lashana Lynch tracks because they got really annoying.. A new season of “Silo”; is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month.
