Edward Fox is "The Jackal" with Alan Badel, Tony Britton, Cyril Cusack, Michel Lonsdale, Eric Porter and Delphine Seyrig.

"Based on Frederick Forsyth's best-selling novel of political intrigue, The Day of the Jackal, tells of a cold, suave British assassin hired by the French OAS to kill General de Gualle. Nameless and faceless, the killer, known by the code name of Jackal, relentlessly moves toward the date with death that would rock the world. The tension mounts as the methodical preparations of the Jackal are paralleled with the efforts of the police to uncover the plot, which gives the story non-stop, edge-of-your-seat suspense."--Container.
