The beloved Matt Damon film is a famous adaptation of a Robert Ludlum classic - but did you know the movie has nearly nothing in common with it’s source material?

Show Notes

• The Bourne Identity by Robert Ludlum
• The Bourne Identity - Blu-ray
• Normally we do an audio clip from the trailer... Well... See for yourself why we decided to skip it this time.
• For those with too much time on their hands, on YouTube you can find The Bourne Identity from 1988 starring Richard Chamberlain (an older and more seasoned actor than Matt Damon)
