Analysis Of A Thriller/Action Film

The Bourne Identity - Analysing the opening sequence of a thriller/action film


I analysed the opening sequence of a film in the Thriller/Action genre. The film I chose to analyse is called The Bourne Identity.

The film is produced by Universal Pictures and stars Matt Damon as the main character. The film centres around the mian character trying to find out his identity and why he's the target of an american agency and avoiding obstacles in that journey. The opening sequence is 6mins 11seconds long.

This film can be classed in the Thriller/Action genre because of certain codes and conventions in the film that are those of the Thriller/Action genre.

Quick cuts and changes of the camera angle are well known to a lot of genres including thriller. The first few shots of the film quickly change back and forth between two settings/happenings.
