@@alancassell566 How would she know it was tapped? The Ministers didnt know, and were surprised by the news. This is 60+ years ago- tapping phones then was NOT normal or easy, and there are (theoretically even today) serious legal issues with tapping a government officials' phone. As to the hotel, he had to sleep somewhere, and he used a different ID iirc. The person who exposed his existance had no information whatsoever on the identities he was using.

[@jamesdrynan]

An excellent picture! Fox was chilling as the Jackal. Lonsdale as Claude Lebel perfectly portrayed the Jackal's nemesis. The cast is uniformly superb. Fred Zinnemann and his company were allowed unprecedented access behind police lines during the finale. The entire film is a tour de force!

Yeah Condor is great. It's unfortunate that everything that Cliff Robertson tells Turner at the end is true. We'll get there eventually. Von Sydow is chilling in that! His dialogue is memorable when he tells Turner, "You have not much future there." He knows how useful Turner could be but can't convince him to take his advice. I love how he gives him his gun back too. "For that day." Great movie!

I worked with a guy in the 60's who had owned a Renault dealership in Algeria and lost everything when de Gaulle gave Algeria its independence. He hated him with a passion as did a lot of French from Algeria. Ironically 30 years later I was living in Paris and was invited to an award ceremony for resistance fighters and was shocked when I saw de Gaulle in the group, even though he died in 1970. Turns out it was his son who was an admiral in the French navy and was a spitting image of his father.

[@thedwightguy]

French tea plantations in Algeria got the "tule" fog for moisture much like the San J. valley in Calif. BUT when Algeria got it's "independence" the "pied noir" French who owned the farms were marched down to barges at gun point with little but the clothes on their backs. One family I knew in Canada: she now works for the UN, but her parents never had nice things again. Her sister visited the plantation and there were Muslim families living the the shade of the walls left, but GONE was the running water, electricity, all the infrastructure. It 's a lot easier to destroy than to BUILD. No wonder Algerian Frenchmen were so pissed. Most kept some money in France, Spain, or Italy so most didn't lose everything, but.......

So did the final attempt. He was reviewing a parade, stood to attention, and a shot was fired, the round hit the ground.

It was well documented at the time!

Large number of French ministers leave a building, then the boss leaves the building with his bodyguards in the second car. Spotter on a scooter spots, then phones the shooters about what route they are using, Gunmen and road blockers fail to stop or kill DeGaulle (Boss), then unconnected man in sports car is the killer hired to kill DeGaulle. Police pursue him as he changes identities, up until he stands by in a rooftop apartment over looking where DeGaulle will present medals to members of the resistance of WWII. The film was shot around 1973 and includes a lot of real footage of the preparation for and real parade and presentations of that year. A style that the director used earlier in his film 'Grand Prix', which used real races as the backdrop to a fictional story about Grand Prix racers and teams.

[@trespire]

@Frank Fisher That is correct. It is a well known event amongst classic Citroen enthusiasts. Both tires on the same side were shot out. Any other "normal" car would have lost directional control, but not the DS. The DS has a unique suspention and steering geometry, with zero camber and zero castor. Unlike any other car ever built, it is completely unefected by pot holes or road surface condition. The car will not swerve to one side, nor will the driver loose control even if the front tire is flat. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hWikmp2lnK2niMU When De'Gaulle's car was hit, the driver never lost control and actually accelarated to get away. Since that event, De'Gaulle refused to ride in any other car but a Citroen DS.
