Abandoned Amnesiac Assassin | The Bourne Identity
Manage episode 312919386 series 3252806
A story about espionage is a great avenue to get an audience member engaged in a tale. The story can either add to their own conspiracies about how the world of secret intelligence works or begin to deconstruct them. The Bourne Identity is a story that puts us in the shoes of an amnesiac assassin who is trying to figure out who he is, all while surviving against the world’s most adept assets. In this week’s episode of Parallel Quest, the guys discuss drive-in theaters, reaction videos, generational gaps, amnesia, free cam, James Bond, and of course this is all done with the backdrop of the main topic: The Bourne Identity.
