Former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn has captivated the French public with a cryptic debut on Twitter just ten days after he was acquitted of pimping charges in Lille.
Posting ‘Jack is Back’, the jury is out on who exactly is Jack and whether it signalled a comeback on the political scene.
Twitter users hazarded a few guesses:
From Jack Bauer in TV series 24, who is back to save the world from an economic catastrophe.

To Jack Nicholson’s character in Stanley Kubrick’s ‘The Shining’, perhaps referencing the iconic scene ‘all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy’.

French newspaper Le Figaro says that ‘Jack’ could refer to Leonardo di Caprio’s character in Titanic, for a sequel in 2016 since his career has been drowning for the last four years.
