The Day Of The Jackal 1973.

When President De Gaulle decides to grant independence to French Algeria, several

of the soldiers, who fought in that campaign, feel that De Gaulle is belittling the

lives of the men who died there. So they form a group and make attempts at De

Gaulle and fail. When several of their key members are killed or caught and

eventually executed, the three top members decide to hire a professional assassin

to take out De Gaulle. The man that they chose agrees to do it on the condition

that he be alllowed complete autonomy. He also advises them to go into hiding until

the job is done. And they do. When the French Security force learns that they have

shut themselves off from the rest of world are curious what they are doing. So they

abduct their errand boy, and once interrogated all he says is the assassin's code

name, "The Jackal", they hypothesize that they have hired an assassin to go after

DE Gaulle. Once De Gaulle is informed he refuses to alter his plans and will not

allow extra security added. So his ministry decides that they should find the

Jackal before he makes his move. They appoint the best detective in France, Claude

Lebel to find him. Lebel plan is to contact every police department in the world

and see if the Jackal comes from their country and if so to provide him with a

description and/or a photo. Now Scotland Yard has a small lead but unfortunately

they miss him but they have his passport so assuming that he is out of the country,

they try and find the passport that he is using. Now when they think that they have

him, he discards the identity that he is using and assumes another one. Can they

find him before he gets De Gaulle?
