Actually what bon bon says is true --
for the CIA to attribute the print properly, it has to be able to fit the wrongness of the print into a framework of wrongness, which would point in a different (correct) direction.
The real question, to me, is why did
the bad guys pick Bourne as their goat? I mean, did they not see the first movie??
Then again, this is the sort of movie where
at least one of the assassins from the first movie was totally unaccounted for, and one character (Julia Stiles) completely disappears from the plot when Bourne is done talking to her.
So accounting for the little details may just be too much to ask!
I guess they picked
Bourne because they, like the whole world (a bit of a tired device), underestimated him. If they had indeed succeeded in killing him (why the FUCK do you not check for the body?), the CIA would have been merrily wrong.
I have a question about leaving-at-the-altar movies. Well, maybe more than one.
Do we have instances where it's the guy that leaves the girl,
and
the guy is the sympathetic character? In my memory it's generally the girl that jilts.
In the oh-no-our-heroine-is-marrying-the-wrong-man! stories, it's incumbent upon her to realise the wrongness, and end the relationship just in time, either because it's better to be alone, or to be with the other guy, right?
In and Out?
Yes, yes. Though I wonder if the gay thing sabotages the gender roles even a little.
The Wedding Planner?
I didn't see this -- how did it go?
How about
Four Weddings and a Funeral?
The Wedding Planner had the groom fall in love with J Lo, but he was too honorable and nice to break it off with the bride. Luckily, at the altar, she realized she wasn't ready to be married, and broke it off with him in the nicest fashion possible, and took the honeymoon tickets and went on a self-awakening Grand Tour of someplace like Tahiti. Freeing the groom to go sex up J Lo.
In the same movie, there is some nice guy who is willing to marry J Lo, and everybody seems to want them to be together, except for her (due to the groom). I don't think it gets to the altar, however.
she realized she wasn't ready to be married, and broke it off with him in the nicest fashion possible
Interesting. So he doesn't get to do the leaving.
Sumi -- remind me about 4 Weddings.
In
Ever After
the prince leaves the hysterically crying Spanish princess at the altar to go marry the Drew Barrymore character.
