He was a favourite author of mine when I was young, many great novels.

> The Day Of The Jackal was turned into a 1973 film starring Edward Fox as the Jackal, and then became a TV drama starring Eddie Redmayne last year.

It was also the 1997 Bruce Willis movie "The Jackal": https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119395/

The Dogs of War was also a 1980 movie as well: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080641/
