Listen "The Bourne Identity"
Episode Synopsis
In preparation for the second season of Andor, we’re diving headfirst into Bourne, the early-to-mid-2000s action franchise written for the screen (mostly) by Tony Gilroy. This efficient thriller holds up surprisingly well given the time period, and it’s making us ask lots of questions. Questions like: How much of Bourne’s amnesia is a parallel for the PTSD veterans experience? What does the color red have to do with this movie? Who is still checking out Ludlum’s original novels from the library? And can sleeper agents receive orders in the form of emoji? Shut it down.
