One of my favourite movies of all time is The Day of the Jackal (1973). So I thought I would catch the new series of the same name, with Eddie Redmayne playing the title character.
Two episodes in, and there are already a couple of chess connections. In the first episode, it is revealed The Jackal is a chess set collector, in a scene where he confesses that if he got carried away, he would go bankrupt. The in the second episode, he arranges a meeting, which it turns out was filmed at Paris Court in Budapest (masquerading as Munich). This was also the filming location for a key scene in another of my favourite films, "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy", and I made sure I visited while in Budapest for the Chess Olympiad.
