Very interesting movie about one of the most visible terrorists from the late 1970s through the 1980s-- Ilich Ramirez Sanchez.

He seems like an idiot at the beginning of the film but changes into something quite different. Good way to see into how some of the terrorists prowling around in the 2010s think.

The series was on cable last week on the Sundance Channel. The 5 1/2 hour movie and its shorter version get theatrical release right about now.

Was he known as the Jackal?

This was his handle put on him because he had a book named The Day of the Jackal in his belongings.
