episode 28: Sad Little Puppy Man (The Bourne Identity)
This week we’re talking about one of Avery’s favorites: the 2002 The Bourne Identity. Matt Damon is capable and hot, spoiler alert. Also, we’re convinced this is actually just a romance masquerading as an action movie. Needless to say, we get into it. But first, Rosey talks about binging Heartstopper and Avery continued with the “week of Matt Damon” and rewatched Good Will Hunting. Then it’s back to Netflix for their Top 10.
Next week we’ll cover the problematic (but Rosey loved it at the time) He’s Just Not That Into You. Find it on Netflix.
