The Day of the Jackal mistakes
Revealing: When the Jackal is shot he is thrown back and collides with the 'wall' which moves/flexes thus betraying a studio set.
Factual error: When The Jackal arrives in the Paris train station, a modern luggage cart is seen, similar to those commonly seen in airports today. They were not in use in 1963.
