 | Suspense Sequence 005 - The Day of the Jackal (1973) *SPOILER WARNING* THE DAY OF THE JACKAL (1973) - The quintessential political thriller directed by Oscar-winning director Fred Zinnemann (FROM HERE TO ETERNITY, A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS). Based upon the book by Frederick Forsyth, the screenplay was adapted by Kenneth Ross. It is a meticulously constructed work, following two separate story lines - one focused upon The Jackal (Edward Fox), who is attempting to assassinate the French president, and the other focused upon Lebel (Michael Lonsdale), the police inspector trying to stop the assassination. Each character is like an unstoppable force, each on conflicting missions that takes them on a disastrous collision course towards one another. In this scene, the climax, the two figures - The Jackal and Lebel - finally cross paths with one another... |

 | The Dogs Of War (1980) - Part 1 Here's one of the most surprisingly good films I've ever seen on IFC. Normally the Independent Film Channel has a penchant for showing unusual or obscure films that aren't really "independent" in the true sense...this film happens to be one of them. "The Dogs of War" (released by United Artists) is a 1980 war film based upon the novel of the same namer by Frederick Forsyth, directed by John Irvin. It stars Christopher Walken and Tom Berenger as part of a small, international unit of mercenary soldiers privately hired to depose President Kimba of a fictional "Republic of Zangaro", in Africa, so that a British tycoon can gain mining access to a huge platinum deposit. This movie was filmed on location in Belize. The Dogs of War title is a phrase from William Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar (1599), which uses the line Cry, 'Havoc!', and let slip the dogs of war (line 270, scene 1, Act III). Christopher Walken had just come off of the great success of "The Deer Hunter" in 1978, and he delivers a wonder performance in this film, playing the main mercenary that scouts out and eventually pulls together a team to go into this fictitious country to help overthrow one govt. to install another one. Tom Berenger is also equally as good, in one of his earlier rolls. You'll also notice that several of the mercenary supporting cast just happen to be important stars in another great action film of the 1980s (and probably of all time)...."Raiders of the Lost Ark." In this film, you'll see ... |
