The Bourne Trilogy (Spy Month, Day 3)

October 26, 2018 by Amy Suto Leave a Comment

First of all, I never said that spy month was going to be a CONSECUTIVE 31 days. Right? *checks with lawyer, who nods solemnly* Right. Cool. Okay, if you want to read the other blog posts you can do so here. 

Yes, It’s JUST a Trilogy

In this weird shadow universe where tyrannical television hosts now run nations, I refuse to let one more injustice tip the scales. So, we’re not going to acknowledge any of the Bourne films beyond Ultimatum. You know that a series has really given up when they give up their title schemes (Bourne Identity/Supremacy/Ultimatum/Legacy) and just go “ah, well I guess we could just call it JASON Bourne.” Seriously? You couldn’t even do “Bourne: Jason” as a clever call out to Bond? 

Anyways, I know I tell you guys to fight me a lot when you’re holding opinions that are different than mine, but you can fight me if you think Legacy and Jason Bourne were actually good movies.*

*By the end of spy month, I’m just going to be fending off strangers with my jiu jitsu skills 24/7 as I get tackled in the streets by the populous of Los Angeles with terrible taste. 

Why Bourne Beats Bond

Look at this poster. I would stand in line for this poster.**

**Get it? It’s a Moby joke. If you don’t get this great joke, stop everything and go re-listen to Extreme Ways, aka the greatest theme song in spy movie history, and its 27 remixes come back an enlightened human being with good music taste. I’ll wait. 

So, I was going to go through each movie and do a film-school-style analysis about why these action sequences are some of the best in spy movie history, I decided that was boring and just want to talk about the ways in which this movie is better than Bond. 

And I say this AS A JAMES BOND FAN. I love the silliness and the fun of Bond, even as I cringe at how disposable the sex objects are. (I refuse to call them female characters, because ‘Pussy Galore’ ain’t a character, fam.)

So here are my reasons:

Bourne’s got much more to overcome. I don’t know about you, but life is hard when I forget an actor’s name and resort to a series of statements like “the one with the hair” to try and narrow down who I’m talking about. Bourne starts the trilogy with no idea who he is, which is most of us after a night of drinking. Can you take out assassins sent to kill you after a night of pounding shots? No. You’d get shot. In this TED Talk,

Bourne’s underdog status makes the wins so much more satisfying. Bond’s got a whole organization (usually) backing him up. I think Bourne taps into a little bit more of our “watch the whole thing burn” impulse whenever intelligence community conspiracies surface. The trend of “EVERYONE IS CORRUPT” themes in our spy films isn’t a coincidence, and it’s kind of nice seeing this rogue crusader evading the government and making them look like idiots. There’s some escapism here, and we’re rooting for this guy in a way that I think hits deeper than Bond. Outlandish villains are so much of a mainstay in today’s politics that it almost hits too close to home. 

Lessons Writers Can Learn from the Bourne Trilogy

If you’re writing within the spy genre, you have to give your hero some creative wins that put us squarely in their corner. Everything else — ethical conflicts of those who operate in the shadows, conspiracy of organizations gone off the rails, action scenes — is irrelevant if your hero kinda sucks at their job. In a spy thriller, you need to capitalize on the escapism of the highly competent lone wolf beating the odds. 

One of my favorite scenes from Bourne encapsulates this. It’s not a huge action scene, and Bourne is just breaking into a safe. But the way it’s shot, the cleverness of our protagonist — it’s the certifiable “trailer moment” that takes a simple task (breaking into a safe) and turning it into a win that undermines the enemy and highlights Bourne’s special skills in a different way while making us cheer for him.

Here it is, from the Bourne Ultimatum:

Happy NYE to all the people who saw my hair in var Happy NYE to all the people who saw my hair in various stages of disarray on Zoom this year!!! In 2020 I spent a lot of time running @kingdomofpavement, writing/producing @thelaststationpodcast, prepping @kingdomofink_writers for launch with the help of our incredible team, and I got to write some cool books with my amazing clients you’ll be able to read soon. Work aside, I also struggled a ton and worked a lot and dealt with all the existential dread we all went through. I would not be smiling and continuing to avoid my hairbrush without the love and support of the people around me, and I’m grateful to pieces. Here’s to another year of virtual meetings, moving our remote office to gorgeous new places, and pretending “windswept” is an accurate description of my bedhead.
In 2020, we were constantly faced with our own mor In 2020, we were constantly faced with our own mortality. If your life was taken away from you tomorrow, what would you do differently today? What would you change in yourself and the world around you? In reading this book about how different cultures around the world treat death so much differently than us, I also think our fear of death harms us. In thinking that we’re going to live forever, America pretends very real viruses don’t exist, and we don’t make the changes today that would lead to a better tomorrow. The fact that death is an inevitability is both freeing and a call to make the most of the time that we do have. Here’s to 2021 and the way in which we can make the most of it ✨

I’ve spent most of 2020 in cozy spaces reading w I’ve spent most of 2020 in cozy spaces reading with my cat, and there’s something satisfying in the simplicity of sifting through all these good books. My current read is “Women Who Run With Wolves,” a book analyzing mythology and feminine nature that’s deeply fascinating and a life-changing read. We don’t think about the wisdom we need to protect our creative nature and inner worlds, and this book goes into how to find restoration and strength even in our chaotic environment. A full list of all my favorite books from this year coming to my blog soon!
This is been a year of climbing mountains. Whether This is been a year of climbing mountains. Whether we’re forming a fictional folk band and need to get our album cover or creating new systems and structures from scratch, I couldn’t be more grateful for the people beside me as we build a kingdom that can pave a new road into Hollywood and storytelling. Every day I get to wake up and work on projects I love, help fascinating folks tell their stories, and try to make my corner of this world a little brighter. In 2021 I’m planning to keep upholding the standards and values I want in our work, and to bring some really special art to life. Even as things are burning, we can find a way to use the flames to show us the way to what’s next.
Enjoying the last few days of working remotely in Enjoying the last few days of working remotely in Palm Springs. It’s been a lovely month soaking up the last of the summer (fall?) sun while writing by the pool and transitioning to fire pit days. Working in inspiring places has helped me focus on the top-secret writing work I’m doing for really inspiring people, and think deeply about the right way to tell a story from all angles. Soon, back to LA, home for the holidays, and onto the next adventure as we try to make the most of our quarantine world with really exceptional people.

Spent all of the past month living and working rem Spent all of the past month living and working remotely in the Colorado Rockies, and here’s what I learned:

1) Fresh air and long hikes can fix a lot
2) What can’t be fixed by 1 can be remedied with good friends and long conversations 
3) What can’t be fixed by 1 and 2 can be solved by renouncing all material possessions and just moving to the woods permanently and taking up whittling 
4) While I’m not quite at 3 just yet, I’m working on trying to carve out a place in the world that feels full of life and heart and community. It’s going to take a long time to build everything we’re working on, with a lot of hard decisions along the road. But I’m excited to keep making progress and creating stories I care about with talented folks.

Stay safe and here’s to hoping we’ll get our blue skies back in LA sometime soon 💙

This is easily one of the most influential books I This is easily one of the most influential books I’ve read this year: even if you haven’t dealt with trauma personally (and there’s different levels of trauma), you interact with people in your world who have — even if you don’t know it. Understanding how trauma affects the core of us on a cellular level is critical to understanding how the mental affects the physical. This book is also an important glimpse into why people behave badly: usually, there’s unresolved trauma at the heart of someone acting out. If everyone was more trauma-informed, we’d be able to make strides to solving the public health crisis at the heart of these traumatic incidents, and be in a better place to help provide healing modalities like yoga, therapy, and EMDR.
