Carla and I watched our “old” VHS copy of “The Fugitve”. Tommy Lee Jones certainly deserved the Academy Award he won for Best Actor in a Supporting Role.
"The Bourne Identity"

I watched “The Bourne Identity” last night. Since I’m in my hotel this week, I watched it on my laptop with headphones. I enjoyed the movie. I had never read the book and didn’t have any preconcieved notions about the film from the book. I was expecting an exciting spy thriller and that’s what I got. It was well directed and well acted. I expecially enjoyed Franka Potente. She’s a pretty big “star” in German films. So, she brings a lot of exerience and good acting even though she’s someone I’m not familiar with. She also gives the film a very authentic European feel. On the other hand, Julia Stiles, does a less than memorable role. Her character’s name is “Nicolette”. I assume that she’s supposed to be French. She just portrayed an American teenager with some fancy gear. On the whole, the film was entertaining. I’d watch it again.
