The Bourne Supremacy - Bourne Apologizes to Neski Girl

One of my favorite movie scenes ever.

I never got the "older than I thought you'd be" comment by Bourne. I realize now he's expressing shock at how long he's been an assassin.

"I'm not going to hurt you, " yet her eyes return again and again to where she knows the gun is. Brilliant acting and directing.

One of the most powerful scenes in an action movie. Her acting really elevated the film.

That scene when Bourne is walking in the snow, after having asked for atonement, in some suburb lost in a map in the outskirts of Moscow, completely off grid. And the backdrop imagine of the Moscow condominiums, and the instrumental kicks in. Truly amazing cinematography.

This is by far my favorite scene of the movie. It goes directly to the essence of Bourne and what makes him such a tragic, tormented soul.

Bourne realizes how much he took away from her and changed the course of her life. If her parents were still alive, she'd probably have gone to university, had a career. met someone and got married and started her own family. She was left vulnerable to the world thinking her parents killed themselves and until this conversation never knowing why they would have "left" her. Bourne risks it all to try to square the past for her. That's a lot for both of them to have carried around.

Man the 2000s were the golden age of sequels outshining the first film. This, Shrek 2, Dark Knight, 28 Weeks Later, Final Destination 2, Kill Bill Vol 2, etc.

She looks suitably terrified. Comes home to find a strange man in her home who tells her that after years of thinking your parents were responsible for their own deaths the truth is they weren't. Very powerful scene.

[hughvane]

Oksana Akinshina played this role so very well, beautifully done.

[dalegreer]

This might be the best small part of all time. That first tear. And then that look to the side, at the picture. There's so much going on in this apparently simple scene, and Oksana Akinshina was perfect.

“It changes things, That knowledge. Doesn’t it? When what you love gets taken from you, You wanna know the truth.”

Man Matt Damon is an incredible actor. The girl is too. Powerful scene

[DDavi]

Beautiful Oksana Akinshina did a brief, tiny, but brilliant performance !

[eldo]

Just thinking back on this movie he gets shot and goes through a death adrenline car chase just to tell this girl what he knows. That's pretty heroic!

[petertard]

The scene really owes its impact to Oksana's subtle yet powerful acting.

The thing about Jason Bourne that's so fascinating to me is that when we see glimpses of his past, he's almost entirely robotic and cold blooded. After his amnesia, he's like an entirely different person. Wanting to escape his past and move on, living the remainder of his life in peace, and we see how genuinely horrified and guilty he is over his horrific deeds and actions. The fact he came all the way to Moscow just to say sorry to this woman confirms that. His shame at leaving a little girl entirely orphaned many years ago in this scene is just incredible viewing and just a wonderful performance from Matt Damon.

[ravireddy]

Some scenes get etched in our hearts and stay with us forever. This is one such scene and you can really empathize with Jason Bourne taking such great risk of getting shot and escaping a mercenary just to confess his past crime before this young girl . The background score further​ intensifies the emotions in it. And it is a perfect display of acting skills by Matt Damon.Can hardly imagine anyone except him playing the role of Bourne.

[graytonw]

That shot of him from 4:12 to 4:17 is perfect. Limping, bloodshot eyes, sunken face, just confessed to the Neski girl that he was the one who killed her parents, he looks like he's been through World War 3 at that point. This was what I was hoping the ending of the first Bourne movie would be like instead of the feel-good ending, but at least they did it right here.

[peterfrank]

Jason Bourne went to Moscow and through the violent car chase with Kirill just to apologize to her.

[Skycube]

This proves that making an emotional scene doesn't need excessive props, action, dialogues, or anything besides that stuff I just mentioned. Simplicity in the right way, #lovebourne
