The Bourne Identity

The Bourne Identity was directed by Dough Liman and released in the year 2002. The movie is based on the novel which has the same name by Robert Ludlum in the early 1980’s at the height of the Cold War. The book has also generated a television series and several more books. The opening of The Bourne Identity contains a fast-paved and exiting action sequences.






From watching the film, i have made the following notes:

I feel the opening of The Bourne Identity has inspired my opening. The constant darkness entwined with eerie background music is effective. This has inspired me to use this in my film, to use dark and an eerie background music to build tension. The films use of non-digetic has also shown me how effective it can be to build tension up. I also feel the use of foreign lanuage has given me more support to my idea of the main charector speaking in a foreign lanauge.
