Скачать или смотреть THE DAY OF THE JACKAL: my remake of the rifle test scene

As I stated in the past videos, I love the movie and the book.

Here is my take on the rifle testing scene. I know it is silly.
But the rifle is real. Note I have shortened my fake silencer to look like in the movie.

I could have used my own watermelon and probably find a way to explode it impressively as if by the exploding mercury bullet.( for instance using a shotgun)
But I decided to take the nice clips from the original, including the watermelon painting scene.


Besides my wife would not allow to waste a watermelon…

Also I wanted to test my simple camera work and editing limitations. I know my acting sucks.

But I had fun this beautiful Saturday. In my Halloween costume.
Hope you will have fun as well.

P.S.
See the original 1973 movie scene for comparison here:
