The Bourne Identity
- Commentary: I can't remember how I discovered the existence of this series. Apparently, I knew about it when I purchased the Bourne collection, because I mention it in the write-up for the first of the Damon series. I can't recall how I was reminded recenty that Richard Chamberlain had done his take on the circuitous identity known as, in this movie, simply "Bourne". But I'm glad I was. This time, I decided to see if the series was available. It was. As well, this series runs, episodically, for 185 mins and is based on only the first book. You'll notice, as well, it preceded the first of the Damon/Bourne series by 14 years.
More later, after I watch this series.
