message: Fromt the article :
" As the Jackal realises he is being tracked by Witherspoon with the assistance of Zanconia, he infiltrates Zanconia's house. "
So Witherspoon is tracking the jackal without informing his colleagues: the FBI agents , russian partners and the IRA hitman. 
When the FBI director finds out about the FBI access code he curses witherspoon ; so one can conclude witherspoon was also doing his inside job during the entire operation for unspecified purposes.

message: “The FBI discovers Lamont's body and, with the help of Mulqueen, deduce that the Jackal intends to utilise a long-range heavy machine gun for the assassination.” It’s been a LONG time since I seen this movie, so I don’t remember the scene where they found the body at all; I know Jackal uses an autocannon for his mission, but ¿how did that scene play out? Forgive my faulty memory, I just want to be sure accurate information is disseminated. A. J. REDDSON — Preceding undated comment added 20:58, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

message: When the gangsters try to hijack the Jackal's weapon, he drives into a hotel garage and sprays something on his car. Later one of the thugs tries to open the car door, and is killed by whatever substance it was. 
This almost reminds me of The Rock (1996), wherein we see two separate instances of a character being exposed to VX gas. Anyway, does anybody know exactly what he sprayed on the car? Ft763  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ft763 (talk • contribs) 01:31, 6 January 2020 (UTC)

message: There are two problems with the statement I removed:
*The claim is referenced to a person (Ben Mankiewicz), but no published source is provided. That doesn't qualify as a reference.
*Even if someone could find a published source where Mankiewicz made that statement, it was made as a host for TCM, which has aired it for 20 years. Calling the movie a "minor holiday classic" is mere puffery from a biased company.
If a source can be found, it should be OK to add back the airing-for-two-decades claim.  --Larry/Traveling_Man (talk) 17:31, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

message: A gentle-spirited film, Smart Money features some intriguing Cagney sequences, particularly a pre-Code pantomime of cunnilingus(!) that has to be seen to be believed, and critics noted how well Robinson and Cagney played off each other, but this was their only screen pairing (some cinema aficionados refer to this dilemma as the "Gene Autry-Roy Rogers effect" or the "John Wayne-Gary Cooper effect" or the "Cary Grant-any other commensurately important actor effect;" it's rather like Wild West gunslingers reluctant to go up against each other).
