THE CINEVERSE: "THE DAY OF THE JACKAL"

While watching "The Day Of The Jackal" yesterday, I noticed the license plate on the Jackal's Alpha Romeo:
GE-161741

D'oh!

So close to a trifecta in getting a proper sequence of numbers from 'Lost'! If only it had been "GE-151642"!

Oh, well. It's in a movie world, anyway. Still and all, it's one of my favorite police procedurals of all time and I wish I could claim it for the TV Universe; Michel Lonsdale and Derek Jacobi made an excellent team for what could have been the earliest equivalent to a French 'Law & Order' series.
BCnU!
