Overview

Bold adventures of the lone hero are a story form as old as Gilgamesh. The hero must discover meaning, purpose, love, and fellowship, often against immeasurable odds. Doug Liman's The Bourne Identity updates this tale for the 21st century, following the voyage of discovery for one man and showing his encounters with charity and sacrifice in unexpected places. Bourne clings to faint hope and solace in a cold, decadent world.
