OVER BLACK SCENE CARD
The Bourne Ultimatum Makes the Chase a Memory Reframe
The chase structure works because movement recovers authorship. Each pursuit is not only escape; it pushes Bourne closer to the institution that named, trained, and erased him.
Why it works
The action keeps paying off memory as geography. Stations, rooftops, offices, and files all become routes through a body that knows procedure before the self understands why.
