      "Jackal Carlos"

      Olivier Assayas' films always feel shortcomings, but this film is undoubtedly very exciting. It was the first time he saw this rhythm and state of affairs, and he was very surprised. I searched the protagonist's "deeds" before, which is a bit helpful to understand the story.

      I downloaded the online version for more than two hours. When I encounter English dialogue, it may be because there is no original subtitle and the subtitle group has not been translated. If you want to fully...

      Ideals are always shattered

      This kind of 6-hour feature film comes with a filtering function. Those who are not interested or dislike it may not be able to stick to it. If you can insist on watching it, you like this kind of movie. So much content is a bit like "A Dream of Red Mansions". Some people see history from it, some people see the intricate relationship between the Middle East and Europe, and they can also see the ecology between small countries under the background of the Cold War. Here I am. Talk about your...

      334min plus post-screening talks, from 2:30 to 9:30. I'm rather frustrated that most of Saturday is spent on terrorists' running account life...

      Although its budget cannot be compared with Hollywood. But when the Golden Globe winners were announced, it defeated the billionaire production "The Pacific" produced by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks, and won the best miniseries/TV movie award. . Assayas's performance made many people fall by the...

      Criterion Edition, 339 minutes, 3 parts. It can be regarded as an epic. Although I don't know its historical background personally, I admire Olivier Assayas's ambition to make such a blockbuster, his ability to grasp a large amount of material, and his creativity to fill in a large number of stories without historical...

    Movie plot

    In the history of world terrorism from the 1970s to the 1980s, from Palestine extremism to the Japanese Red Army, Carlos the Jackal was the undisputed core.
    "Jackal" Carlos the Jackal, whose real name is Ilyich Ramirez Sanchez, is a Venezuelan and is recognized as the number one terrorist in the world, and a "super killer" who has been hunted by police from various countries for 20 years. In 1975, the oil ministers of 11 OPEC member...

    Movie quotes

    • Abdelaziz Bouteflika: I didn't expect to see you again so soon.

      Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos': I'm sorry to get you out of bed so late.

      Abdelaziz Bouteflika: So things didn't go as planned in Tripoli.

      Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos': The Libyans betrayed our cause.

      Abdelaziz Bouteflika: I don't think your cause is ours.

      Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos': Our pilot is exhausted. And the plane cannot reach our destination. Give us a long-haul plane and we're out of your lives.

      Abdelaziz Bouteflika: The Saudis are our allies. The Iranians too. We cannot put their ministers' lives in danger.

      Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos': You put them in danger by refusing our conditions.

      Abdelaziz Bouteflika: If things go wrong, your life and those of your men are at stake. Touch one hair on Yamani's head on our soil and you're all dead. Clear enough? Be realistic. The Saudis are too powerful. Not one country would risk helping you. You won't go to Bagdad. What has Tunisia offered? Nothing. What has Libya offered? Nothing. I offer an honourable way out that can even come off as victory. Yesterday I mentioned a certain sum. I'm sure the Saudis would double it. Can your cause, whatever it is, afford to spit on 20 million dollars?

      Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos': What guarantee?

      Abdelaziz Bouteflika: Algeria's word.

      Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos': You proved it worthless.

      Abdelaziz Bouteflika: Then that of the Bank of Algeria! If you agree, we'll open an account in the name of your group. The money will be wired within hours.

      Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos': My group must not be named.

      Abdelaziz Bouteflika: In your name, then. Work it out with Mr. Haddad. We know him well. He's discreet, wary of needless publicity. But definitely not indifferent to money.

    • Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie': Carlos scares me. Life means nothing to him.

      Wilfred Böse 'Boni': He's a soldier. A leader. You're under his command.

      Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie': I'm a political militant. I hate armies and soldiers. I fight for a cause.

      Wilfred Böse 'Boni': So does he.

      Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie': I wish I were so sure.

    • Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos': My name is Carlos. You may have heard of me.
